OMG! This girl is a new B&G Honey!! Her name is Loretta and she is $184 with eyes and face-up! I LOVE HER!!!!!!!!!!! She is 26cm and the perfect playmate for Niki!!! Now if I could only figure out a way to pay for her.

That B&G honey is really lovely isn't she! That isn't a bad price with eyes and face-up. Would love to see her in a real life photo after people start getting her.

Yep, no luck on the doll coming before I leave. I will be getting off work around noon, then coming back here to throw a few things together and will head out to Seattle.

So have a great weekend! I will probably be offline for a few days until I get back on Sunday.

Yes she is lovely! I would so love to get her. I think it is a great price - only $30 more than I paid for my AOD tiny dolls. I love that size and I already have 4 outfits for that size girl, some shoes and wigs and glass eyes. I also would love to see some RL photos. I assume by the time I can get her there should be some around.

I'm so bummed you won't have your boy before you leave Oh well, you have something to look forward to going home too!

Hope you have a safe and wonderful time with your friend!!

Talk to you Sunday or Monday!

Take care - I love you and will miss you! :hug:

I'm back!!!! Had a great time wining, dining. shopping, and catching up with my friend... and the conference was pretty good too. Got some good networking in, so definitely was worth it. I was 95 degrees when I arrived in Seattle on Thursday which is unheard of in early June, but cooled down to normal Seattle temps in the upper 60's low 70's the rest of the weekend! I about melted, but we went straight downtown to a place having a great happy hour with 1/2 price appetizers and made a light meal of that and had a few drinks. My friend had to drive back to the hotel because I had 4 drinks (Just wine though!) and she only had 2.

It is much cooler now here and I came home to a wonderful surprize! My husband had cleaned the entire house and picked some flowers out of our perennial garden and put together a lovely arrangement for me! Now that is what I call a nice welcome home!

Anyway, seems like you had a fun weekend around here and I bet you have a nice day planned today for Rob's birthday. What do you have planned?

I will go post some pics of "Jack" (don't know what to call him yet-so this is probobly temporary!) I love him though! So glad I traded for him!

Welcome home! Glad you had a great time! How sweet of hubby to do that for you! Bet he missed you.

Well, yesterday was my Mom's birthday and I took her out to breakfast and shopping.

We were supposed to have a BBQ yesterday to celebrate both birthdays - but we had to cancel that as both the boys have been sick this week with a bad virus of some kind. Justin had it Monday, Tuesday and a little bit Weds. Eric got it Weds. and was so sick Thursday we took him to the doc in his PJs! We were seriously worried about Swine Flu - even the doc. So he was tested for it. He had a horrid headache - so much pain he couldn't talk or open his eyes. He had a fever of almost 103! He was on fire plus chills. SO weak. He never did vomit - Justin did ALL damn day on Tuesday! Anyway, Eric finally felt a wee bit better last night - but still not great.

So anyway, we didn't want to expose our Moms or anybody to what germs might be in the house, so we canceled the BBQ. We are going to have it on Fathers Day and celebrate it all at the same time.

I didn't want my Mom to be alone on her birthday - so I went there and took her out. It was nice.

I do have a nice dinner planned for the 4 of us today and I gave Rob some little treats this morning. He will get his real present when we celebrate on Fathers Day.

Hopefully neither Rob nor I will get sick I have a lot of kids coming the next few days so I need to be healthy. Rob is off all week. I'm off on Thursday and Friday and we hope to spend the day Friday out and about!

Can't wait to see your new guy!!

How awful the boys have been so sick! You would think those robust young guys would have immune systems of steal, but maybe all the end of school year stress wore them down a bit. Hope they feel better soon and are able to eat the great meal today!

That was nice you and your Mom got to celebrate together. Father's Day is right around the corner isn't it? Thanks for reminding me!

Father's Day is June 21st - so two weeks from today. We always have a Fathers day BBQ - and couldn't see the point of doing the B-days next week and then Fathers Day the week after!

I swear the boys were healthier when they were younger. Eric gets sick a lot. I think it is from all the exchange of monies and in and out of the car in the rain etc. with his job. Plus he is always out with friends when not working and getting little sleep.

Justin has been out a lot since the end of school and not sleeping as much as he should. He has been playing bass with a band and hitting some coffee houses etc. So who knows what all he is picking up from those places!!

Does Eric still smoke? I know that could be a factor as well...

They are both such cuties! I know why you love them to pieces!

ETA: The lili dress auction ends in 2 days and so far no one has bid on it. I am hoping to get it for a reasonable price. I sold the little bunny chess piece I got with Cornelius as a bonus to help fund the dress! I got 25.00 + shipping for it.

Eric never smoked. Justin did/does. He is trying to quit - or so he says He has cut down a lot - mostly due to cost I am sure! Cigs with tax are outrageous here! Like $7 a pack! So I guess that is good since Justin is tired of spending his earnings on them.

They are cuties and I do love them to pieces but SOMETIMES they make me a little loony

I so hope that nobody bids on the dress! That would be awesome to get it for such a good price!

DDE sent me a receipt for my pre-order on the Goodreau outfit for Maurelle. I sure hope it is here before the party! I so want her in that when people come.

That is great that you were able to sell the chess piece! Clear profit for you

Oops! I knew I may have had the smoking turned around! They are just so close in age and looks!

Yes, I hope you get that outfit by the party too! Have they said how long the preorder should take?

Oh, do you know if AOD make a tiny that has elf ears?

AOD makes a Tiny elf- Wan Wan. She is on my wish list for sure!

Not super long elf ears and I can't find a good pic that shows them off at the moment. This is the closest I found.



You should be able to get her from the seller in California that I got my Niki and Justy from for $150 with face-up and shipping and glass eyes!


Here is a link to the seller! If you want to do your own face-up she is $120 plus $14 shipping. She raised her shipping prices for $10 to $14 - so complete with be $154.

She is cute, but I need a boy! A mini Gump boy with big open eyes...

Well I got my boy's new wig today and it is perfect on him!!!! It is very close to this, but a lovely reddish brown color. I am working with Dee again about coming up with a Jack outfit for me. Now that my grabby hands have almost gotten a hold of the Lili dress, my roll towards the Legend project is full steam ahead!!!!!

I also got the most adorable shoes in the world today for Lili or for whatever head is on Mo's old body for the day! They are black and white victorian looking pumps. I got them as part of the Leekeworld Go order I went in on.

Oh how exciting!! Can't wait to see your boy in the new wig and I am dying to see the shoes!! You know what a shoe whore I am

When is the auction over on the Lili dress?

It is so fun planning a doll project! Wish I was planning a doll project instead of planning all the work around the house and yard for a graduation party!! Don't get me wrong - I am thrilled to be having a party for such a wonderful event, but YUCK to the work!

I know what you mean about all the work it takes hosting a big shindig at your house, especially in the summer when it isn't just getting the house ready, it is the yard too. At least the yard improvements will last for a while after the event.

Oh the shoes are killer...I would wear them myself!!! I will have to take some more pics this weekend.

The auction for the lili dress is over tomorrow! I am going to go place a bid on it right now, just in case something weird happens with the computer or something!
