Summer Updates

 
 

Hi and welcome back to The Dollhouse. Wow.  I haven't posted anything since Springtime during stormy weather.  Here I am in Summer writing another post during a storm.  It's been pouring rain with some occasional lightning and thunder for the past week.  It seems more like October instead of July.  There have been so many changes since the start of Spring.  A lot of dolls have moved to new homes during our big Spring garage sale.  Mostly the 111/2" dolls including Barbie and Monster High.  A few Ever After dolls have moved in.  McKenna Brooks arrived this Summer and has settled right in.  Rebecca Rubin will soon be looking for a new home along with more dolls from the 11 1/2 " village.  A pair of Bitty Twins has come from grandmas house to live here.  So many dolls in and out-it's hard to keep track of everyone.

 

 I had these three pictures left on my camera since the last photo shoot.  The BFCs have a bunch of handmade clothes to model.  Gianna and Yuko were modeling the sleepwear.  Gianna is no longer with us.  She has moved on to new adventures.  Aliesha is the newest BFC resident.

Spring post that never actually posted

 

Lots of things happen in Spring.  Sports, babies being born, Easter, and lots of rain.  I never got to post my BFC Ink. photo shoot pictures because they were deleted.  I'm guessing Patience did it.  I'm hoping the BFC girls do another photo shoot during the Summer so I can post those pics. 

 

So what has been going on at our Doll house?  Well, Zoey Chloe insists that she looks exactly like Isabelle Palmer.  She even ordered her very own Isabelle Meet Outfit and is waiting for its arrival.  Zoey also has a new flat ironed hairstyle to match Izzy's. 

Beautiful Caroline is looking lovely as always.  Those curls are really high maintenance.  Her handmade outfit goes well with her new glittery sneakers form Target

 

 We got a bunch of new items for Spring from Etsy and Zulily.  Two new shopping sites for us.  The lemonade set came from Sophia's Heritage Collection on Zulily and our dining table came from ADM Woodcrafts on Etsy.  Sophie is wearing her new swimsuit from American Girl.

Rebecca Rubin has joined gymnastics.  She is really enjoying it.

Rebecca has been getting some much needed attention lately.  Besides starting gymnastics, Rebecca also got her ears pierced.

 

Soccer season is here again.  Marisol has joined the soccer team.  She is still learning the fundamentals of the sport.

Zoey Chloe is not only looking like Isabelle lately, she has also created a sewing room too.  The historical girls have been teaching Zoey how to sew. 

 

The sewing machine, table, and chair came from Dcwp (Don's Custom Wood products).  We used scrapbooking paper for the mermaid designs.  The sewing machine isn't finished painting ye.

We also have some exciting news.  McKenna Brooks has been invited to come live with us.  She is on her way from Colorado and should arrive within the next couple weeks.  Everyone here are huge gymnastic fans and having McKenna here during the Summer will be so much fun!  Josefina and Kanani are on vacation and will return in the Fall.

Alice is Testing My Patience!

 

The BFC Ink girls are finally going to have their long awaited photo shoot.  I have been invited to cover the event.  I will post pictures this weekend.  But on to other matters.  Patience a.k.a. Alice has been here two days and already I want to send her down a rabbit hole to Wonderland, Neverland, just basically out of MY Land!!  She is full of energy and keeps getting into everything.

 

Dana: "Alice, have you seen my tablet?  I need it to blog the photo shoot."

Alice: "What's a tablet""

 

"Okay.  Now let me see what this thing can do."

 

"Ooh.  I really like this tablet.  So many things to do on it."

 

Dana: "Aha!  You do have it.  Hand it over!"

Alice: "No!  It's mine!"

Dana: "No, it isn't!  I need it back!"

Alice: "Finders Keepers!!"

 

Alice: "Can I come too?"

Dana: "No!!  Get off the Jeep!"

 

"I wonder how long before Dana brings my tablet back."

 

"Soooooooooooo bored."

 

"I know!  I'll put on my own fashion show."

 

"Dana has some pretty clothes."

"I wonder if Dana will let me keep this fluffy vest?"

 

 "Wow!  Dana has some really ginormous feet!  I didn't like these boots anyway."

 "Hi everyone.  The photo shoot was fantastic!  I can't wait to share all of the pictures.  I wonder if Alice stayed out of trouble while I was gone?"

 

"What happened I here?  Alice!!  Where are you?"

 

Dana: "You are not allowed to touch my stuff, ever!"

Alice: "I don't know how this happened.  Who could have done it?" 

 "Shh.  Don't tell, okay dollie."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Patience Wilde

Can it be?  A new doll in the park?  Where did she come from?

 

 

China Girl: "Are you from Oz too?" 

Patience:  "No I'm from Wonderland.  I got put in a dark box and when I got out, I was here.  What is this place?" 

China Girl:  "You're in The Doll House.  A wonderful place where dolls are loved and cherished.  My name is China Girl.  Whom might you be?"
Patience: "My name is Patience Wilde.  However, I prefer going by the name Alice."

 

Dora: "Wow, your eyes move.  What a neat trick!  Wanna see what I can do?"



 

Alice:  "That made me dizzy!"

 

Lauryce: "Hi new girl. Do you want to play kick ball with us?

Alice: "Sure.  I need to stretch my legs anyway."

Dora: "Do you want to play with our toys?"

Alice: "You're not going to do that creepy thing with you eyes again are you?"

Dora: "I won't do it anymore if you don't like it."



 

 

Okay, it's official.  My short reign as new girl has come to an end.  I haven't even got to interact with all of the other dolls yet.  I hope the doll population doesn't grow this fast on a regular basis.  Otherwise, I won't be able to keep up with all my posts.



Lulu Belle Hosts a Tea Party!

 

Today Lulu Belle is hosting her very first tea party!  She has invited her friends Violet and Baby Lisa.

 

China Girl brought Lulu some desserts and wished her good luck.

 

But soon, the party went wild!  Sombrita the goat ran for the desserts and knocked everything over.  Tea spilled over Baby Lisa (good thing it was iced tea).

Lulu Belle ran with the desserts and saved them on the picnic table.

 

This was a most memorable tea party.  No more baby tea parties for China Girl.  Stress like .this could crack her into pieces.  The babies had fun but decided not to bring Sombrita along any more.

China Girl's Tea Party



China Girl is having a tea party today at the park.  It's her most favorite thing to do.

 

I wonder who she is inviting for tea?

 

 Oh, her guests today are Lulu Belle, Rapunzel, and the Wizard.  Everyone is dressed in their tea party best.  China and Rapunzel have really hit it off.  Could this be a new pair of best friends?

Everyone had a really nice time in the new park.  Lulu really wants to have another tea party soon.  She wants to make her own party, just like China Girl
