Spring Has Sprung

It is so warm here, that I can hardly believe it. This is the kind of weather I love. The birds are singing and having a great time playing in our birdbath. Some of them are starting to build nests. I decided to wander around our doll town and see what some of my friends are up to.


I stopped by the rancho to wish Josefina a belated Happy Birthday! She and her sister, Esperanza, were enjoying the springtime in their courtyard. Soon there will be baby chicks running around!



Kirsten and her sisters had just finished their chores and were ready to head out of the cabin to explore.



Cécile, Addy and Jenny were just getting ready to have lunch.



Cécile needed to put her parrot, Loretto, back in his cage so he wouldn't eat their food.



Addy just found some lovely flowers to put on the table.



I found Samantha busy at her sewing machine making a new spring dress.



While Amanda was getting ready to put her doll in the pram to take her for a walk to get some fresh air.



The funniest conversation I heard was between the twins, Mia and Eva. Someone had given them a brand new sewing machine and neither of them knows how to use one. I guess they'll have to figure that out.

That's all for now!

Hugs,

Versatile Blogger Award

Thank you, Reese, for awarding me the Versatile Blogger Award. Sorry it took me so long to respond. Here are the seven random pieces of info about me that you might not know:
1. I want to be an ornithologist when I grow up. That's a type of biologist who knows all about birds. I already spend a lot of time watching their behavior when they nest in our yard and I have a "life list." That's a list bird watchers keep to show all the birds they have ever seen. Whenever we go anywhere I keep my eyes open for new birds.

2. I love camping and the mountains, but I have never been to the ocean. Actually, I'm a little bit afraid of water. Not of water in pools, lakes and streams, but of giant waves! I guess I've seen too many disaster movies involving ships and waves. But the best way to overcome fear is face it, so I'll be going on a vacation at the ocean soon.

3. Everyone in my family is musical, except me! Maybe not everyone, but it seems that way. Between the piano, guitar, ukulele, flute and violin, and also singing, someone is always practicing their music. I do love it, but I play music best on my iPod. teehee! It doesn't bother me too much, but sometimes I feel left out when everyone jams.

4. This is kind of a secret, but you know those skateboard parks they have with all the cool ramps and pipes? I really want to get good enough to do all those kinds of tricks. I have asked for a skate board for my birthday. It's probably harder than it looks, but it sure looks fun! I've gotten pretty good on my snowboard, so I think that will help. I love rollerblading, too.

5. Sometimes the girls here talk about wanting to grow up so they can do stuff like drive a car and go wherever they want, whenever they want, but I actually LOVE being a kid. I think being a grownup looks like a lot of work and I'm not sure that it is as fun as my friends think it is. Just a random thought, haaahaaa!

6. My favorite kind of movies is anime. I am actually named after an anime called "Kiki's Delivery Service" that I recommend watching if you've never seen it. The first one I ever saw was "Totoro" and I still love that one.

7.My favorite animals are dogs (not including birds, of course!). I would really like to be a dog walker and maybe even a trainer. I think dogs are a doll's best friend!

I'm not going to tag anyone in particular, but if you want to join in consider yourself tagged!

Hugs,

Kiki

Lookie - A New Look!

Well, I'm not big on fashion, but I have decided to change my hair. I've been letting it grow and then I got bangs cut! I like it this way. What do you think?


All of us are super excited about spring. It's been really warm here and all the kids are always playing outside. We have a bunch of new outfits to show you. All of them came from Build-a-Bear! Some of them were a little big and had to be taken in, but others fit right away.



Well, this was a funny post to come from me! haha Next time should be a little more exciting.

Are You Irish?

Of course you are, because everyone is Irish on St Patrick's Day!
You probably wondered what happened to me since Valentines Day. ( or not, haha ) Well, thank goodness for holidays, because our person has been so busy that she hasn't been able to help me with my blog. She has done some sewing and knitting for us dolls, but that's another story for another post. Anyway, the other day she had to go to the grocery store and there happens to be a dollar store right next to it. She found some fun things for us girls and we have been using them to decorate the treehouse.



So, at least I have one photo to share today! I hope we can have a party on St Patty's Day. No green beer for us kids, but we could make shamrock cookies with green icing. Do you have any special plans? Any ideas for St Patricks Day crafts? Let me know! Hugs, ~ Kiki
