Dolls

Thanks Aerwin! It is easy to make a necklace - it's just like making an extra long bracelet!

Here is Milo in the brown wig! Just two quickies as I need to get ready to take Eric to the oral surgeon for his surgery consultation on the wisdom teeth. Poor baby needs two impacted ones pulled





Now I cannot wait to get the brown and gray one! I think he will look amazing in it! I know this wig is an 8 instead of a 7/8 and it is a wee bit too big. The sunglasses do a great job of holding it in place. The one I ordered last night should fit perfect just like the other 7/8. I am still glad I got this one though. He looks really handsome in it! I will try to take more pix of him in it later today after we get home from the doc and errands.

That wig is really good on him! The color is really nice!

Poor Eric. Impacted wisdom teeth are not fun at all.

You ordered a brown and gray one last night huh? I must go back to the previous page, I think I may have missed some stuff.

I see he stole back his sunglasses from Shyla... They are perfect on him!

TTYL! Back to work...

Eeek!
That wig you ordered from Cool cat is the same one I got for Thorn!
No wonder you like it!

It runs big and I had to trim it to keep the bangs out of his eyes, but you will be love it!

Seriously?? Does Thorn's have gray in it? I will need to look at his pix again! I was actually at ebay looking for a "Dorothy" wig for Rylee and I saw the brown and gray one and bought that for Milo instead. I love the color combo! I am going to get Milo a few colors and styles to switch him up every now and then. I had to trim the bangs on the blondish wig Milo was wearing before. I was tempted to trim this one, but just pulled it back a bit. I know it will be 2 or 3 weeks before the one from Cool Kat gets here.

The White Rabbit is here!! He is soooooooooo cute in person I can't believe it! Now I am mad at myself for not getting the Cheshire Cat too He is so much nicer in person than the pic! I am so lucky I found him! I will try for pix tomorrow. Too much still to do today.

Yes, poor Eric , but our consultation was this morning and the oral surgeon examined the x-rays and said they are partially impacted and straight forward. It is just the two bottom ones that need to go and he said it looks to be a pretty simple route. He goes Friday July 19th. We will have to leave at 8:30 to get there. No food or drink (not even water) from the time he goes to bed because they will be putting him out. It should take about 90 mins. He will get the kind of stitches that dissolve. He probably will only be able to eat soft foods for about 5 days and will miss a few days of work. I hope it all goes well and he is not in too much pain afterwards. Hopefully he won't get too swollen or bruised. There was a girl in the waiting room going in for her follow-up visit and the poor thing was all bruised along her jawline. I don't want my little baby all bruised What? Yes, he is 19 - he is still my little baby

We went to Walmart and Jewel afterward and got some lunch. We had the nicest time! We don't hang out much anymore just the two of us, so it was a real treat for me!

Sadly, I need to make a doctor appointment for him. He has been having a very hard time sleeping. He says he legs bother him something awful in the night. He thinks he has RLS . I so hope that isn't the case and it is just growing pains or something. My FIL had RLS so I sure hope Eric doesn't.

Gotta scoot! TTYL!

Can't wait to see the rabbit in your Alice photoshoot! Yes, the cheshire cat would be awesome too, maybe that seller will get another one in!

Thorn's wig is not really gray...it is a beautiful silver and coppery brown. Really nice unusual color mix.

I hope Eric's leg pain is just a growth spurt. He is at that age to have a final one.

Good morning!

I so hope you are right about the growth spurt. That was my first thought, but he really thinks differently since he has been reading about RLS. Though sometimes I think Eric is my little hypochondriac I'll call the doc early this morning and try to get him in today or tomorrow.

I found another one of those Cheshire cats from the storybook. I put a bid on it. It still has 3 days and 11 hours left on the auction. I have a busy weekend ahead and I am not sure I will be at my laptop for the ending. I just hope it doesn't go as high as the last one did. I won't spend over $20 for it. I'll just continue looking for one (or a Mad Hatter) until I get what I want for the right price.

It is going to be cloudy and stormy today and tomorrow so I do not know if I will take any pix today. They really only come out good if the sun is shining in.

Hope you have a great day! I was only suppose to have 4 kids today as 3 went to camp for a few days, but two moms emailed me to see if I could watch their little girls today so I am up to 6 today. Should be fun!

TTYL~

FC I hope your little guy does OK with his surgery. Was he in pain or did they find the wisdom tooth problem on a check up?
Back in the Fall Colin was having leg pains and it was growing pains , so I bet that's what it is with your guy.

Thanks for telling me that Aerwin! I am pretty sure that is what it is, but I guess we need to know for sure from the doctor. Eric needs to know! He will continue to freak out otherwise.

The dentist said during a check-up that the two bottom wisdom teeth will never come out and they have to go before he starts getting infections. So you do what you got to do.

Heh. Colin freaks out about stuff too. He just had a dental check up so I guess his wisdom teeth are ok.

He went to the lake ALL DAY yesterday swimming and he comes home fried. After I told him 500 times to keep applying sunscreen. He put it on once. He keeps saying he is in pain. Well I guess. He didn't listen to me.

Oh no! Poor baby My kids got burned a couple of times and learned from that! Now they are good about sunscreen. Somethings you got to learn the hard way.

Good morning!

In re-reading my post from yesterday how sad it makes me that Eric is not a hypochondriac but someone clearly in tune with his body. I was so sure yesterday morning that it was not RLS

I found a really cute small Cheshire cat yesterday on ebay express for only $2.99 plus shipping. I got it for "Alice". I figure he can sit on her lap while she is on display. I am still the highest bidder on the other cat, but that auction goes until 6:00 PM Sunday. At least if I don't win it I have this small one coming for sure.

I'll be gone most of the day, so I hope you guys have a fun Friday! It is going to be stormy here today. We had big storms last night. What is with the freaking weather this year??

ETA: Eric got up for breakfast awhile ago and said he got 5 solid hours of sleep! The best he has gotten since Saturday night!

Yay for Eric! Being sleep deprived is just hell! I don't know how he does it...at least he has youth and a wonderful mother on his side!

Have a good day too! Glad you found some Cheshire cats for your Alice...she must have the full meal deal!

Well, my auction ends tomorrow...15 watchers (i'm sure you are one!) and one bid already! Hope I reach the 300 mark...then I can get into some serious trouble and get the body I want with a blank MNF Lishe head so we can make my Princess Lily and a bonus Black elf Soo head if you spend 395.00.

Well, better get to work!
TTYL!

Here is the dark soo head they are offering if you spend 395.00... In the past she has only been offered in SD size.


This is something like what I would do with the head:


Then this is something like I would do with the Lishe head (Sans the freckles!)...I think she is one of the most beautiful dolls ever...the head I would get would not be an elf though...which is perfect since Princess Lily is a human girl!


My Legend character cast could be growing...and hubby is going to town on the armature for my unicorn...and soon will be sculpting it for the mother mold!

TTYL!

EEK!! OMG the last pic is just too gorgeous for words! Bye!

My grandmum's name was Lily! isn't that the prettiest name? I LOVE the freckle face one with the freckles.
You know I used to have freckles, where did they go?

Yes, I aim to make a Princess Lily (Mia Sarah)character from the movie Legend that stars the nameless one that you hate...

Aerwin, i love freckles! Are'nt the freckles on that doll great? Too bad the character does'nt have any.

The freckles, the eye shadow, the expression out of her eyes - she is just amazing!!

I just LOVE the freckles. I wish I still had mine. Don't tell me someone painted those on her face. yeah let's not mention the psycho nameless one.
Wasn't there a Barbie or some kind of little doll a long time ago with freckles? I vaguely remember something like that. I REALLY like the elf dolls. You know my nickname is really Arwen from LOTR. Because when Colin, my son and Cory, my nephew were little I would read to them from LOTR.And Cory just started calling me that. Isn't that funny? They still call me that.

That is weird you lost your freckles I like freckles too! I love Clay's freckles! I also love them on dolls.

I also remember there was a doll who was a friend of Barbie's with freckles. Now I will go crazy trying to remember her name!

Wow! I did'nt know your nickname was Arwen from LOTR! How cool -I adore LOTR! As if you could'nt tell! My love for elf dolls is now a full on addiction I am afraid!

That minifee Lishe with freckles is just spectacular. I MUST have a doll with her same coloring, eyes, etc. Of course mine will come out differently, I think my hubby and I can capture some of the look of that doll while emulating Princess Lily. I can't even imagine how tedious it is to paint on the freckles...I don't think I will tackle that one any time soon.

Did'nt barbie's little sis Skipper have freckles?

No freckles on Skipper. Flawless skin just like Babrie

But I do think there was a redheaded friend with freckles.

BTW Aerwin, I love the name Colin! Is he a redhead like you?

I knew about Aerwin's name being from LOTR from a previous board we were on together. Very cool name!

MIDGE!



My Midge was a brunette, but I just checked ebay and all the Midge dolls had freckles! Mystery solved!

Midge! That's the ticket!

Man, she sure is fugly!

Thank you! I like his name too. I wanted something English/Scottish because of my grandparents.And we were in Great Britian when i was pregnant with him and I met an adorable kid named Colin. And Colin Firth the actor may have a leetle to do with it. His middle name is Byron for my favorite poet. NO his hair is BLONDE! Almost white blonde. My nephew's is red. Don't ask me where that blonde hair comes from. My husband is not blonde either.

MIDGE! that's it. She is not cute though.

Yes, Midge was one unattractive doll But what did we know when we were 8

Colin Byron! What a wonderful name! Very royal and sophisticated sounding. My youngest is Justin Garrett. I think that is very classy.

So your family is one blond, one brunette, and one redhead! Sounds perfect!

Luca I hope you can get your doll to look like the doll in that picture! She is just spectacular! I adore the freckles on her, but I sure can understand why you wouldn't want to tackle that! If I tried that the poor thing would probably just look like she had the chicken pox or something!

Today is the day of the wedding so I won't get to be around much. I am happy that today is PERFECT weather!! Sunny all day, 81, calm winds - just perfect!! YAY for the bride and groom for getting such gorgeous weather for their special day. YAY for us who won't get wet and wind blown attending the events

Sadly, there are storms predicted for tomorrow How dare it rain on our Father's Day BBQ! Of course it will probably fit my mood. I am not really looking forward to my first ever Father's Day without my Dad I plan to have my little urn with me by my seat while we eat and I don't care if people think I am weird He will be with me tomorrow dammit!

Hope you ladies have a lovely Saturday!
