I have totally neglected my blog for a long while. I am in high hopes of keeping it up way more often. I have acquired quite a few more dolls since I started with Blythe. I have fallen in love with the Lati Yellow line and have been able to get my hands on a few limited editions. The Fairyland pukipuki's and realpuki SoSo have also found room on the bookshelf/dollhouse.Then I came across a tiny 4" doll named Amelia Thimble so most of my blog will be devoted to her adventures. She is so cute and tiny and loves to sew. Her sewing machine actually arrived before she did. I am sure both of us will be making her some nice clothes along the way, I also found out she plays flute like me. Yes, she has one of those also! Most of the stories will be from her perspective and her new sisters.

Once upon a late October day, I arrived a few hours late to my new destination in Oklahoma. I came from a dollmaker's shop in Mullica Hill New Jersey. There were lots of us in that dollmaker's shop, not as many here but I am sure from the looks of things there will be more arriving in the near future. The box I arrived in wasn't much, just brown cardboard, as if it were hiding my specialness from the world. After the main box got opened, there was a white box inside that wasn't much more for looks. Just plain white with some black writing on it. I am beginning to wonder if she will ever get me out of here!

She is getting closer, a pretty little yellow box was inside, so it won't be much longer now.

The problem with being born in a dollmaker's shop and adopted out is there is still a certificate of authenticity and of course a free gift (as if I wasn't gift enough) and then I finally see her and she sees me. I think I am going to like it here.

After taking off my seatbelts to keep my resin from being bashed around by the UPS man, she held me in her hand to warm me up after telling me how sorry she was that we had a cold front come rushing in the night before. She assured me I would never be that cold again.

She said she had lots of presents and surprises waiting for me in a little while, but for now I would need time to warm up and get used to my new surroundings. She had lots of friends for me to meet. I never dreamed I would have so many new sisters to live with. Let me see if I can remember them all. There are 4 she called Lati's whose names are Sabrina, Monday, Gretel, and Cupcake. There are 2 about my size she said are pukipuki's with pointed ears (which I find quite amusing) named Sugar and Swallow. The one I think I will like the best is a realpuki named Pip, and boy is she ever something! She has even bigger ears than Sugar and Swallow! That little one is into everything but seems like a happy little fairy, always smiling you know. I just hope she stays out of my sewing things, cause if she does she will be my favorite. I am acutally a little bigger than her which is more than I can say for the other 6. I feel so small here, but Gretel and Cupcake assured me they always take good care of the smaller girls and make sure their shoes don't get lost. I spent the better part of the rest of the day finding places to unpack my things and learning the rules of the house. Doesn't seem like many rules to me but they seemed very insistent on filling me in. A few things they told me were about all the photo shoots that go on in here. Sounds like I will be busy! I just can't get over that they have a real mink rug in the middle of the house! Oh, almost forgot, she told me my name is Bedilia Amelia Thimble. Bedilia for short. To Be continued........
