Rod Breaks the News to Melanie (video)

The long awaited video is finally finished..  So how does Melanie react to Rod's news?

That waitress has been waiting patiently in her box for her moment to shine.  She will be returned to her box to wait for her next big moment.

I hope to be doing new dishes by next week.  That is now on my list.

Jessica's Play Date

The Hart family has been adjusting to having dad home.  It's been quite an adjustment, especially for dad, Ethan.  Stephanie has had to reorganize her life to not only be mom, but to get back to being a wife.  Ethan is working through all the nightmares about the war.  Even with all the challenges, they are all happy to be reunited.

A typical family room when there are infants and toddlers in the house.

Stephanie has managed to get Jessica, baby Aiden and herself, dressed.

 Dad comes to say goodbye before leaving for work.

"Hmmm.  Daddy loves you so much."

"Have a great day, honey."

Kathleen is headed to school. Mom gives some last minute advice.

Moments. later, Jessica heads to her play area.

Mom has placed the baby in the playpen for his morning nap. 

Meanwhile, she does a little cleaning to get ready for the guests.

Hours have passed.  Mom fed the kids their lunch and then put them down for naps.

They're so adorable when they sleep. 

 

Naps never seem to last long.

Jessica awakes just in time for her play date with Mikayla.

"Sweetie, look who's here. Are you going to say hi to Mikayla." 

Doesn't take long before the girls are totally engrossed in playland.

Even baby Chloe is playing away.

Stephanie and Michelle get to enjoy some adult conversation. I think I hear them talking about the dance. Yes, they will both be there.

An hour later and the girls have had enough. All in all, a great play date for all.

Happy Mother's Day from the Familes at VansDollTreasures

Happy Mother's Day!

I am so late with some of my blog posts.  It has been a doll filled week, and my cup runneth over.  Just a quick recap before I show pictures of  my new Fashion Avenue outfits.    Sunday - I watched the documentary Marwencol, about the gentleman who built the 1/6 scale world in his backyard.  It was a very inspiring story.  Tuesday - I ordered my new Fashion Fever outfits.  Thursday - BarbieCollector.com sale   Friday - Fashion Fever outfits arrived and I met an amazing dioramist.  Her collection blew me away.  Saturday - Local Doll Show where I also got to meet Paulette from limbe dolls for the first time.  What a sweet soul!  She is such a talent who has an incredible amount of knowledge.  She blessed me with a couple of her creations that I can't wait to share with you.  She also brought Tinker Toys and Lincoln Logs for Danielle's two boys.  Wasn't that sweet!

So as you can see, I have a LOT to blog about.  So stay tuned.

In the meantime, I still wanted to share my new Fashion Fever outfits, because they are the cutest.  I didn't get a chance to put all of the outfits on my dolls, but you will be seeing most of them in the near future in some of my stories.

"Happy Mother's Day from all the moms at VansDollTreasures. Michelle and Mikayla wearing one of the new Fashion Ave combos.

The perfect country outfit for my country family.

Some mom and daughter will be weating this at the Daddy/Daughter dance.

This is a ski outfit. There will be a ski trip later this year. I have the AA Barbie, Janet, and Kelly Ski set with the Ski Lift.  Can't wait to open it.

This is called the Poet Blouse outfit.  It reminds me of a Seinfeld episode.

I love this outfit.  I really need to put it on a doll so you can see how cute it is.  Maybe later.

I did get one more set that has 3 Kelly Party dresses.  I definitely needed those for the dance.

Once again, Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there.
