Modding Diary- Touch Belly, Child and Toddler Edition

Hi guys! 

Thank you for your overwhelming response to my last Modding Diary 🥰 Im so happy to see how excited you all are. Im entering the final stretch of this update, and this week I finished the child version of the "touch belly" interaction, and I also started working on the toddler animation. Im thinking about renaming this interaction to something like "Say Hi to Baby", because I feel like "touch belly" or "kiss belly" doesn't really cover what this interaction is all about🤔

Here is what the child version looks like 

they will start by having a little chitchat 

child sim will put their hands on the pregnant sim's belly 

they sort of look up and be like "woah" D :

it's hard to see with this picture but they do a little jump

and they keep talking about the baby

child sim extend their arm to hug the belly

and waves to the baby

and that's it for this animation

the toddler version sort of follows the same process. It is still an early work-in-progress, so please excuse all the weird clippings.

 the pregnant sim will talk to the toddler

then they will get down on their knees

Toddler sim stretches their arms and reach for the belly

(I need to make the toddler move closer, those poor little arms are stretched to their absolute limit lol)

then I plan on making them also wave to the belly.

I plan on having this update release before June, so it looks like I will be have a busy weekend finishing everything up🤪 But Im very excited to finally be able to share this with all of you😍

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend! see you at the release!
