The Lewis Family
Previously at the Lewis Family: Kent and Adrian got married and moved to their new home together! After a honeymoon to Shang Simla they also adopted son Archer! But.. then tragedy struck, as an attack of Cornwall Capp on Kent resulted in Kent killing Cornwall while defending himself... which means Kent has been hauled off to jail!
Which means that it's just Adrian remaining in the house this season. Poor guy, all by his lonesome in the bedroom.
This doesn't stop little Archer from needing attention, however.
With no other grownups around it's up to Adrian and him alone to take care of the little one.
Adrian does give it his best though, and soon Archer has learned to walk!
After some more playtime together...
... it's time to take care of Panda the Womrat, too!
Time to go potty with Archer...
... before giving him a hug before naptime.
Adrian receives a call from his good friend Caryl Zarubin...
... before having a little rest himself.
Time to wake up again...
... potty training...
... a bath, with the former bonds with Tybalt Capp fading in the distance.
While Archer starts composing on the xylophone...
... Adrian plays around a little with Panda again.
"... please, no more..."
One more nighttime nap later...
... and a new day is upon father and son.
One hug that makes them best friends...
... and it's time for the talking lessons!
Good job Archer!
Good boys deserve all the love from their parents!
Next it's eating time!
Which means Adrian gets to play with the womrat again!
One naptime later, and Archer's birthday is slowly approaching already.
After fetching Archer out of bed again.
... a prank caller harasses Adrian!
Having the phone in his hand though, does motivate Adrian to invite over a few people to socialise with.
Welcome everyone!
... apparently that welcome included a Wolf Leader, and he's growling at Archer!
Poor Archer is scared...
And then the wolf attacks... The victim is Archer's little boat toy! Nooo!
While Archer crawls in the toy box to hide, Adrian hears the ruckus upstairs and comes in, ready to chase out the unwanted animal!
After that situation, Adrian spends some time with his guests...
Before feeding both Archer, Panda and the guests.
After finally potty-training Archer...
... it is time for a well-needed rest.
The next morning Adrian's working schedule demands his presence at the police office. Which means he has to rely on the support of a nanny to look after Archer!
The nanny arrives...
... and Adrian quickly takes care of the bills...
... before taking off to work!
The nanny is not the sharpest tool in the shed however, putting Archer in the chair with food, and then trying to grab bottles from the fridge to feed him while he's already eating.
This behaviour is followed by leaving Archer to fend for himself downstairs, while most of his stuff lies upstairs. And well, if the toddler can't come upstairs, the stuff must be brought downstairs instead.
Thanks for the help nanny! -_-
She's about to give Archer a bath the moment Adrian returns home from work.
Having the nanny around does mean Adrian has a bit of spare time to work on the garden a little...
... before cancelling her services for good.
It is namely time for Archer's birthday!
The guests have arrived...
... and after Archer gets his sleepy little head off the potty...
... it is time to blow the candles!
Happy birthday Archer!
He helps himself to a slice of cake...
... and while the party is going underway...
... Archer's old toddler room is provided with a makeover, setting him up for a happy childhood!
While the party is going on...
... I realise it's time for Archer to obtain a new trait.
Due to his time on the xylophone, he's gained the virtuoso trait!
The end of the party signals it's time to end the day...
... and off we go to the next one!
Today makes the first one that father and son's first interaction is not involving the crib.
But it's also not Archer's first day in school - the snow and ice has made a mess and the school buses are not driving today, giving Archer a day off!
He celebrates by making a snow angel!
Adrian, who has a spare day of paid leave left, decides to take it to share the winter family fun with Archer!
They build a snowman together!
Then it's off to go out together on a family outing...
Time to go to the Veronaville Market!
... where the two do a bit of clothes shopping together!
And well... are you thinking what I'm thinking?
MAKEOVER!!!

Archer has gone with a green fit, plus a new shorter hairdo with a bit more volume.
Adrian meanwhile, put on a purple shirt and new jeans, and decided to grow out a little stubble, which is slowly greying like the rest of his hair.
Outside of the shop however, a nasty fight breaks loose, Demi Love is taking on Jonathan Ternynck!
While Archer is making acquaintances with other children in the town...
Jonathan takes on Demi for a rematch, with success!
Far too close, if this was Kent on the offense it would've landed him in jail again...
Time to get out before things get even worse!
Home sweet home!
Where everyone gets to enjoy Kent's old refrigerated cooking...
Dang, Kent missed out on Archer's entire toddlerhood.
While Adrian goes on a shower, Archer turns on the TV to watch the bunny show!
After that he got a want to buy a lemonade stand, and thus it is provided.
We got a customer!
Satisfied with his achievements, Archer goes to bed.
Adrian meanwhile stayed up a little longer to practise his rope jumping, earning him that body skill point he needs for a promotion.
The next morning the snowy gloom in the sky has made place for the careful warmth of Spring, signalling it's time to move on to our next family, and that next time we'll say hi to the Lewises, Kent will be back to catch up with his family!
