Toddler trait/quirk not showing

 THIS is the 1st time I have ever started a new topic so I hope i do it correctly!   Toddler quirk/trait changed throu the expansion pack cheat on toddlers.  Quirks/traits not showing in panel now.  I have NEVER used custom content or MOD's in my game.  See pictures please .  

EDIT: added list of game packs:   

Expansion Packs:
Growing Together, Cottage Living, Snowy Escape, Discover University, Island Living, Seasons, Cats & Dogs, City Living, Get together, Get to work

Games Packs:
Dream Home Decorator, Strangerville, Dine Out, Outdoor Retreat, Jungle Adventure, Parenthood, Spa Day.

Stuff packs: Home Chef Hustle, Nifty Knitting, Moschino, Toddler, Bowling night, Backyard, Romantic Garden, Spooky, Perfect Patiom Tiny Living, Laundry Day, Fitness, vintage Glamour, Kids Room, Movie Hangout, cool Kitchen, Luxury Party.

Edit note:  last pack I have purchased was Home Chef Hustle.   I can honestly say that 90% of the issues I have today in my game all came from the packs created since Home chef Hustle came out.  the IRONY here is that they all, obviously,  came from "base game" changes when new packs were released!!!!      I hope this tidbit of info helps.

    @rujuta4me Have your toddlers done anything related to their new quirks yet? Quirks don’t show until they’re “discovered” so I would expect light sleeper to show after you put them to bed and then they wake up before they should, little singer to show after they sing to someone, etc.

    That is absolutely true!!  Once you age up a newborn to an infant, you can select the expansion pack (E13) on that new infant and SOMETIMES you can select the traits/quirks because none of them are already grayed out.  But if there are any grayed out options, the game selected those. 

    If you change them before they are discovered, will they show up?   I don't know for certain about that, YET!!   I have new infant I am testing that on. 

    But the 2 in the pictures, those I changed after they were "discovered".  The game removed the PickyEater from both toddlers from the panel, and as of yet, the only traits/quirks showing in the panels are the ones the game selected - none of the ones I selected are showing even after they had been discovered.   

    To answer your question:  Yes, I had both doing the new quirks - I want to say that in the notification box it acknowledged the "changed quirk" (Loveswater) and the animation of the discovery happened, but the Loveswater trait/quirk is still not showing in the panel.  I don't recall a notification for the "LittleSinger" quirk but I know I had her singing!  That was adorable!! 

     Again, the only one's not showing in the panel are the ones that I changed after they were discovered. 

    I changed the undiscovered quirks in one of my new infants late last night - just changed the grayed out quirks to ones I want to try, now I play , and wait for them to be discovered to see if those will show up in the panel or not.  I don't have a lot of time to play today but I will post what I discover about the changes I made in the EP13 cheat as soon as possible.

    UPDATE:  The quirks for Rose, the blond toddler, showed up today - in the panel, Actually gave another notification of 1 (one) of the quirks,  being acquired.  I'm wondering if there is just too much going on in the household with 2 toddlers and 2 infants!!!  Iris, the older toddler, hers have not showed up in the panel yet.  The infant, just 1 more quirk she need to "acquire" and it's the one the game chose.  Could there actually be too much going on at once???
