Fast Forward a Year and change...

My last post on here was in February of 2015 and was about lalaloopsy mini dolls. A LOT has happened since then so here is the abbreviated version! (I may go into a few more detailed posts/recaps later)

February

• I hosted a Valentine Blythe meet

April

• I mentioned "adding on to our family" and indeed...we found out we were expecting a baby in November!

May

• I left the job that I hated to be a stay at home mom!

June 

• We went to Erie, Cedar Point, and camped and hiked at Letchworth State Park.
• I surprised my hubby with floor tickets to see Rush's 40th tour!

July

• We found out that baby #2 would be a GIRL!
• I started working temporarily at JoAnn Fabric to help them remodel.

August 

• I got to work a seasonal position with IKEA. All the feels of being back, but not...
• Went to a "We can't go to Vancouver" meet at Maggie's. My best friend was due with her daughter any day, so we decided awhile back that we would not attend.
• Went to the PA Renaissance faire a whole lot :)

September

• Carole hosted her fabulous Wildwood Blythe at the Beach meet and I finally met La Rose and hung out with some awesome local doll peeps.
• Went to see Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour with one of my best friends (and Darcy!)
• Lena, my very first middie arrived. What have I done?! Haha.

October

• Went to Blythecon Chicago EIGHT MONTHS PREGNANT. My bestie Jeannette brought her four month old. We are so cool.
• I bought a Melly Kay custom Lydia Green (middie obsession starts NOW)
• Hosted a boss Star Wars party for my daughter who turned FIVE. (how is that possible)
• Made a dia de los muertos custom from a fake doll bestie sent me!
• I bought a Cherish Me Always middie on my birthday. Happy birthday to me. Haha.

November

• Hosted a Day of the Dead meet on the first. I told everyone if I canceled it was because I had the baby. I did not have the baby. Haha.
• November 21 (ahem, looooong overdue, or at least it felt that way!) Emma was born via emergency C-section.



Darcy and Emma (their heads are almost the same size...)

December

• Ruth hosted a really fun Christmas meet. La Rose made little felted hats and we decorated them and there was a white elephant.
• I got a custom Cool Pool Lemonade for Christmas  AND the Sindy Greenhouse!
• Hubby got me a DSLR!

Jan-March

• The dark times. I finished my 365 and stopped taking photos and playing with my girls

April

• Started a second 365 of Darcy. Stella got her groooooove back!
• Went to a Mab Graves show at Arch Enemy Gallery in Philly w/Carole

June

• Hubby gave me a macro lens for our anniversary (!)
• Chuck hosted an amazing Yarnhead themed meet that I am going to post more about for sure :)

So that is my life more or less. Emma is seven months old now and I am full time at home. I am planning on home schooling my older daughter and have already started teaching her to read. Life is crazy wonderful. I hope to update more on here soon!

Thank you, Becca, for reminding me that I had a blog!
