One of my close friends is Filipino and this is exactly what her family feels like to me. Just a warm household full of so many people, I love this kind of gameplay ❤
I love you built out their extended family! It really feels like they've been living their lives long before you started this lp! Can't wait for the next episode!
Just dropping in here to say this is my third time watching your growing together series from the beginning! I love your sims so much (to the point where I've been inspired to re-explore the pack fully with my own big family of sims) and I find your voice and videos so calming while I'm winding down for the night ❤️
I think you might love using SimRealist's Real Estate mod to buy the new house. There are videos showing the mod off but basically you can hire a real estate agent and negotiate for the house etc so you might be able to actually buy it for cheaper! Also I do love this LP and how chill & lightly scripted it is!
Oshin you never cease to amaze me, your videos seriously always make my day 😭 I’m loving Barbie and her big beautiful family so much, thank you for sharing this gameplay with us and thank you for being you! 🌊
Awww Kennie and Jorlynn are cuties! I love this family and the different dynamics. While this is a chill lp it's so exciting to see what's going to happen.
Uh, I mean if you have a baby while going to school and wanted family leave you would have to skip class. They wouldn’t, don’t, and can’t change the curriculum and start and end dates of a semester.
Lol, watching some of your backlog and the funny thing is I have a custom long lifespan (MCCC) and I made pregnancy 5 days and newborns 5 days as I feel like that feels appropriate with the life extension and I kinda like the newborn stage even better with infants and toddlers. Its made me even more reluctant to age them up too fast from any stage. And I like lingering in having a preggers sim a little longer.
"I'm not chaotic, I don't do this short stuff" felt like a personal attack lol, but I do understand you because everyday I suffer with the short lifespan and my huge attachment to my legacy sims (thankfully all my heirs maxed the fitness skill or had the active trait and live for a LONG time, but the few that weren't definitely broke my soul after dying)
@@oshinsims me too oshin, specially now that I'm getting more attached to my sims but I'm starting a current household rn that will be in the long lifespan (which is now huge)!!!!
Aww the Filipino rep in this LP 😍🥲 this has just rocketed to my new favourite series now! Can’t wait for your next episode 🥰 I guess technically my own play through of the new pack also has a Filipino main character too because I’m using my simself and I’m mixed Filipino/Australian haha
Not done yet but I was just reminded of my own life. I lived in the same city as my aunts when I had my son and my mom was hours away. She packed up and moved after a few months
Nunca había visto los gansos...este juego es hermoso y a veces nos perdemos de pequeños detalles que enriquecen el juego. Gracias por el video...que hermosa familia.
I agree, I really wish that they included more adjustable features (like length of uni-semester/parental leave and pregnancy length and aging(!) such for example) depending on how long of a season you are playing on. I almost always play on 4 week seasons and long lifespan and having the university semesters being only 1 week makes 0 sense to me when they (in my mind) should be atleast 3 weeks to resemble a whole full term (spring/autumn) cause that is another thing I do in my game I implement spring/autumn schedule for school. It is sad cause I love everything else with the university pack. Another thing I (and for this I use MCCC/WW is the fact that without mods sims dont age when pregnant (like what is up with that?!) so I enabled that and also on 4 week seasons them only being pregnant for 3 days in game breaks the immersion that a pregnancy is meant to be around 9 months so in my game I always adjust the days using MCCC to match up with 3 seasons passing to make it seem like my sims are in fact pregnant for around 9 months. With the new addition of infants another thing that I had hoped they would have overhauled or tweaked a little is parental leave - with them being infant for a minimum of 5 days (i think), the parental leave should be more than 3 days for anyone playing on a longer lifespan and season than normal and 7 days . This might just be my personel experience and view impacting it though cause here in Sweden irl we have much longer parental leave than the US have. (here usually a parent stays home with the child for a minimum of around 12 to 18 months.) Oh wow I guess I had a lot to say on this topic haha! Sorry if this was a bit long 🤭Also love this series by the way!!
Love loveee this! I know Barbie and ken are the protagonists but you should do check in episodes every once in awhile with the other fam I love them all !
currently having a really bad flu that is giving Covid-like symptoms + I got sinusitis too so let's just say I've been in pain overall for the last couple of days bc I can't even sleep and ive just been in bed for almost 5 days. imma tell you this vid is the only thing that brought me some joy today and allowed me to relax a bit. I love the new bassinets and also genetics. Can't wait for the infant stage with these cuties, it will definitely be extreme with twins😂
It’s fun watching other ppl play and make up stories, but when I play myself I’m bored 😩 like today my single adult sim adopted a baby for fun, then I saved the game and exited out lol
Lol this happens to me too & I used to always fast forward x3 speed so I recommend not doing that cause it helps you watch your sims more & get to know them type thing 😂
Hi, Oshin! Love the lp so much Barbie and Ken are adorable ❤ I didn't know if you knew but there is a mod by Apendigo called Health Redux Mod and it has health related thing like asthma and postpartum pains in it for realism. I just thought you'd really love that for your style of gameplay 🥰
They did mention that University sims don't get to go on vacation or take family leave coz realistically you wouldn't be able to take family leave from university any way, you'd just skip class and catch up if the professor lets you so family leave would be unrealistic for uni. Idk about holidays though
I didn’t know they fuse names! That’s so cool I wish I could do that in the future but I don’t really know how to fuse me and my boyfriend’s (Corey) name lol Madorey? Lol
@@MkatSims My adult sim’s parents had twins without me knowing and I just aged them up and deleted them 💀 I can’t deal 😂 No one is safe from the curse of the twin infants 🤪
Im having hella twins too. my og sim had 1 kid and a set of twins and them the first kid had kids and they r twins 😭 and one of the (first) twins r havin kids and one of them r also having twins 😭😭
For me this lp the love and investment me and many fans have is because of you and you're storytelling talent really opening you're heart with this lp.
Omg Kennie and Jorlynn 🥺I haven’t even finished the video but I know Barbie and ken will be such good parents. I love Barbie’s family so much
I’m so obsessed with this LP! I LOVE how realistic and so precious these characters are, you are so great Oshin! 🥹❤️❤️
Thank you!! 😭🤍
I love how you infused your own culture into this series! It really adds depth. I'm really loving this family too
One of my close friends is Filipino and this is exactly what her family feels like to me. Just a warm household full of so many people, I love this kind of gameplay ❤
Kennie and Jorlyn are the cutest names 💕I love the idea of melding the mom and dads name together
This LP is just so wholesome I love how you play the sims😭
Barbie being completely unphased while being in labor while Ken is freaking out in the backgroynd is such a vibe! 😂
I love you built out their extended family! It really feels like they've been living their lives long before you started this lp! Can't wait for the next episode!
My current Sim had fraternal twins and I really liked that storyline wise because my Sim is a fraternal twin herself!
Just dropping in here to say this is my third time watching your growing together series from the beginning!

i love this lp so far
You sound so excited playing this game , much more then before. I love that for you Oshin.
kennie and jorlyn are such beautiful names... this family is so stinking cute
Yayyyy, so in love with this LP was looking forward to this all day 🌊💙
Awww yay 🥰
This episode was so cute! I love the twins' names and excited for Barbie and Ken to get their dream house.
I am obsessed with this family❤️❤️ they are too cute😭❤️
I know! Everybody's so freakin' cute!
Jorlyn is a adorable. 🎉 Congratulations to Ken and Barbie ☺️
Oshin you never cease to amaze me, your videos seriously always make my day 😭 I’m loving Barbie and her big beautiful family so much, thank you for sharing this gameplay with us and thank you for being you! 🌊
I'm a twin and we're two different complexions just like Jorlyn and Kennie - love this series
I love this LP!!! The family is so wholesome 😢
What a big and happy family x Love them together!
Awww Kennie and Jorlynn are cuties! I love this family and the different dynamics. While this is a chill lp it's so exciting to see what's going to happen.
My game had triplets ❤😂 love this let’s play so much. I actually love the gameplay from other households despite Barbie and Ken being the focus
11:44 I agree University needs to be fixed for holidays and family leave.
Uh, I mean if you have a baby while going to school and wanted family leave you would have to skip class. They wouldn’t, don’t, and can’t change the curriculum and start and end dates of a semester.
I love the babies' names, they're so cute! Can't wait to see more of this family.

😂I literally can’t handle the chaos !
@@oshinsims me too oshin, specially now that I'm getting more attached to my sims
but I'm starting a current household rn that will be in the long lifespan (which is now huge)!!!!
Your videos are so soothing and relaxing. I've been getting through a rough time lately, and your videos are so great to wind down to.
I hope it gets better soon
I love when you play the "other main" families
Aww the Filipino rep in this LP 😍🥲 this has just rocketed to my new favourite series now! Can’t wait for your next episode 🥰

Nunca había visto los gansos...este juego es hermoso y a veces nos perdemos de pequeños detalles que enriquecen el juego. Gracias por el video...que hermosa familia.
Actually you’re right that would be a good addition to the game to have an interview process for the jobs 👌🏼
Could you please upload these sims to the gallery? I love their stories and characters and wish I could play with them too! ❤

I just found your channel a couple a
Days ago and I immediately subscribed and hit your bell. I'm loving it so far🥰

Any chance you’ll upload the whole family on the gallery?

Girl I was trying to make a family for my sims and it was SO HARD! It took HOURSSS

Absolutely ❤your content. You make me want to play Sims. Your voice is SO beautiful. Keep Simming. 😊
If you want better pictures you can keep a camera in your inventory. That’s what I do 😊
They did mention that University sims don't get to go on vacation or take family leave coz realistically you wouldn't be able to take family leave from university any way, you'd just skip class and catch up if the professor lets you so family leave would be unrealistic for uni.

I need the baby override pretty please
The babies are so cute. Congratulations barbie and ken
I didn’t know they fuse names! That’s so cool I wish I could do that in the future but I don’t really know how to fuse me and my boyfriend’s (Corey) name lol Madorey? Lol
can you please post them on the gallery they are gorg
OMG, I love the baby names! Super cute. 💕 Yes, I’m gonna be the one curious supporter that wants to know your name now. 😂
Twins: It's pulling your hair out time! Cannot tell them apart so I usually dress mine in different colors so that I can. This looks like fun 🙂 💙
love me some family gameplay! this series is so fun. Your graphics is so pretty what mod are using for this. 😍💕
I found Growing Together might have a twin glitch lol everyone is having twins 🤣
I SAID the same thing what’s going on 🤣
@@oshinsims I know! I feel like an idiot cause 10 seconds later you said the same thing 😭
No actually because my test sims had Science baby twins 😂
@@MkatSims My adult sim’s parents had twins without me knowing and I just aged them up and deleted them 💀 I can’t deal 😂 No one is safe from the curse of the twin infants 🤪
Is not a glitch lol, my sims have one baby normally, I just think they increased the chances of getting twins
omg i wonder if the twin thing is a glich because my sim just had twins as well
It's a new feature. It increases the chances of it happening.
what lighting, skin detail, did you use to make your sims look so smooootthhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Resources in the description 😍🥰
Oshin! Amazing storytelling as always ❤ can you please link the family house in sulani? I couldn't find it anywhere 😢
