Hello everybody! How are you? I am okay. Mom has had a long week though, so I am going to spend some time trying to cheer her up!



Last week, Mom, Shiloh, Adelaide, Mabel, Molly, Lark, Raven, and Wren went to one of Mom's friends' houses for a dolly meetup. They met some new friends!



Do any of you go to meetups? Mom likes going a lot! I've spent the time in the car, but I've never been inside!

Talk to you next week!

Hello everyone! How are you? I am okay. We had an interesting weekend last week. Mom and some of my friends attended a doll meetup.


Mom brought Adelaide, Joaquin, Zola, Ionani, Caleb, Wren, Raven, and Lark inside. Milton, Foster, and I waited in the car. Mom had an okay time. There was a raffle. Mom thought that she had a fair amount of tickets, but that there were a lot of people who had a lot more tickets then she did. But it turned out that she was a lot more lucky then she thought. She won THREE dolls! She even tried to pass on the last one, but they drew her name again!


This is a picture of them while they were still at the doll meetup. Everyone has now gotten used to our dolly-verse, so they've told us their names.



This is Andromeda. She is a SoulDoll/Volks hybrid.



This is Eleanor. She is a Lee Middleton Reva Schick toddler.


And finally this is Ramona. She is a Paola Reina doll. Mom says she doesn't quite know what to do with everybody. But we'll figure something out. I hope you all have a great day!

Hello everyone! How are you? It has been very warm here in Wisconsin! It’s been pretty quiet though, so I like that a lot.
Mom thought World Doll Day was on the 13th, but it turned out to be on the 9th. She took pictures of a few of my doll friends with the idea that she would post them, but I guess she was too late. I thought I would be nice and volunteer that she could post them on here! I don’t care that they’re late!

This is some of my AG friends. This is Zola, Adelaide, and Shiloh.

And these are my BJD friends. This is Wren, Lark, and Raven. Neither Wren or Raven were keen on the picture taking. Lark had to hold Raven still!
So happy World Doll Day. I will have to remember to help Mom figure out the right day next year so she can post her pictures on the right day!
Hope you have a great week! Talk to you next time!

Hello! How is everyone!? My mom went to Goodwill on Wednesday and found something for our tiny family! It’s a new dollhouse. There’s a long story about the other one, so this is a great thing! It’s very tiny—Mom says that her big adult hands don’t exactly fit, but the BJD family thinks it’s pretty cool anyways! It only cost $25!
2017-09-06 16.00.30
Here it is. Mom says that it has a definite 1970s flair. It came with a bunch of furniture. We had some of our own too.
2017-09-06 19.36.16
Mom and the BJD family have decided that it is a cabin. Cabins can be small. (Although Mom says she would hope that they have windows, but alas!)
2017-09-06 19.39.51
Mom said that she has to get them some more kitchen stuff (Mostly a sink!)! I’m sure we’ll post more pictures soon. (I wonder if they make a house that’s my size? Maybe AG sized? Hm.) Talk to you next week!

Hello everyone! How are you? We are watching Netflix right now. Mom is trying to stay awake for a bit longer so we can write our entry!
Mom put our miniature garden together last weekend. So now the BJD family has a place to sit outside! We have to buy some stones for the paths, but I really like what we did.
2017-05-27 17.21.33
We will probably redo it a hundred times over the summer!
2017-05-27 17.21.36
Do any of you like gardening? Mom likes miniature gardening. I like flower gardening!
Talk to you all later!

Last Saturday, Mom and one of her friends went to the Bay Area Porcelain Doll Show. It was more of a meetup for the people of the club, but it was still fun. Mom took Ash, Adelaide, Wren, Raven, and Lark. (Molly went with, but she had to stay in the car with us because Mom couldn’t hold all of them.) Mom bought a new dress for Wren.
2017-04-22 16.36.03
Lots of people asked about Ash. They did all mention that he’s a bit short, which hurt his feelings a bit!
Mom buys the crochet dresses from the same lady year after year. This time, she got Wren a dress in a darker purple.
2017-04-22 16.16.13
It is nice because she remembers Mom and the BJD family. She also had tiny dolls—like made of clay or something like that. When they came dressed, they were out of Mom’s price range, but it turned out that there was a very tiny teddy bear that wasn’t—but she’d already bought the dress. Oh well. There’s always next year!
Are there any gatherings like this in your area? I think it would be grand to go to more things like this. (Mom doesn’t always agree with me on that!) Talk to you next week!

Things are pretty much the same around here. Oliver is still a handful! He has grown to his full size, a respectable 15 pounds (about 7 kg). Mom thinks that he might get more muscle, but he hasn’t gotten any bigger in a while.

Mom’s work is still yucky, so that’s why we haven’t posted a lot lately. Mom took a picture of me with her ipad, and I thought that we could share it—and then I talked her into writing up this post!

2013-10-05 21.11.24

Mom says that things will change once she gets a different job—and we will post more. She has been fiddling with making a miniature farmyard for the little ones. The shed broke, so now she has to put it back together, but here’s a picture of what it looks like all together.

Sooner or later, there will be more grass, a vegetable plot, and a chicken coop!

I hope you’re all having a good day, and I hope Mom will be in the mood to write more soon!

My mom and the BJD kids went to another meet-up last weekend. I thought I would share a few pictures because I know that there are people who read my blog who like the BJD kids like Mom! Caleb went with too—since he is her travel bear!

This time it was a little distance away. This meant that Mom and her friend had to start earlier. While Mom is a morning person, her friend is not, so that started the day a little late!

tn_2012-06-02 BJD Meetup (4)

This time, Mom didn’t take as many pictures. There were a lot of people there and not a lot of room. Mom isn’t very fond of pushing her way into groups of people, so she made do! On the Flickr photo page, you can see the dolls much better!

tn_2012-06-02 BJD Meetup (16)

Wren and Raven did get to meet someone as tiny as they were. This is apparently a little boy vampire. Mom said that she didn’t quite understand how he got dressed up in a dress with purple shoes, but it doesn’t really matter!

tn_2012-06-02 BJD Meetup (26)

This is what Mom worked on while everyone else was sewing and such. She bought Wren and Lark an itty bitty sewing machine a while ago, and decided that they need some supplies! So now they have their own fabric stash!

Mom wants me to tell Bob T. Bear that Build-a-Bear makes clothes for smaller bears. They’re part of their SmallFry collection. The bears that you get from BAB are only about six inches tall, but they’re for rather rotund bears. They might fit an eight inch bear too. They fit Caleb, but they’re rather tight!

Mom remembered that we haven’t shared her zoo pictures here yet, so that’s going to be the next blog entry! She went with her sister and Caleb to the zoo a few weeks ago and took lots of pretty pictures!

Later!

Sigh. When Mom has tiring days at work, she never feels like helping me type. Things have been pretty quiet here though, so I guess I don’t have much to report.

Wren’s friend showed up. His name is Raven, and he is itty bitty.

tn_2012-05-10 Raven (4)

He’s kind of cute, I think, but he’s really high strung! He’s always bouncing around and doing things. He’s so high maintenance that Mom invited another doll home to help keep track of him.

tn_2012-05-24 Lark (1)

Meet Lark, Wren and Raven’s nanny/governess/au pair. Mom is letting her have some time off before they talk about what Lark’s going to do.  I think she’s going to have her hands full taking care of Raven, but what do I know! Mom says that they both need to go to school, but she doesn’t know of any place that would accept such tiny pupils!

After Mom took some photos off the camera and put them on the computer, we remembered that we forgot to tell you one big thing that happened. Mom took Milton, Caleb, and I INSIDE BUILD-A-BEAR! BAB was holding a 100 Million Friends Made event, and if you brought your BAB friend in, you got a free t-shirt. Mom carried us in a bag inside the mall. Milton and Caleb got to come out of the bag—Milton being a BAB, and Caleb was actually wearing BAB clothes. I was a bit miffed that she didn’t let me out of the bag, but then she reminded me that I am going to go on a HUGE outing in June! (Right, Buttons?!)

Mom says that it is getting near our bedtime, so I’m going to sign off here. I hope you all are having a good day!
