Kits heading out to the Hospital :(

A few days ago, my Mom and me, decided we needed to send Kit out to the doll hospital. The reason it is needed is that her eye has gotten a bigger hole around they eyelash area. Because of that, her eyelash has slipped into that hole and is impossible to get out without taking thet whole eye out and replacing it. At first we were able to get it out with tweezers, as it didn't slip as far back as it has now. After a while of me being careless, her eyelash went to far back and now her "sleep eyes" aren't working. Kit is very special to me and we would not attempt this our selves.

We are shipping her tomorrow and she should get back by this day, next month. I would wait longer, but I want her back by Christmas.

 Please wish (If you want to!) Kit a good trip there and back, as she is very nervous about it. She says it doesn't bother her but I see her rubbing it all the time! Plus she can't go to sleep without keeping one eye open or forcing it closed.

All of the dolls are praying that it will go well. Ivy mostly, considering she's her roomate and best friend. I hope all will go well!

( P.S. Anna should have her first vacation post up tomorrow!)

Hunter has been a Naughty Girl: A Halloween Special

OK so last night I was wondering why Hunter was sooooo hyper. This morning, I got my answer! (P.S. Lanie is such a tattle tale). Lanie told me that Hunter had dug into my trick-or-treat bag and got some candy. So I went over to my trick-or-treat bag, only to find out that there were about 20 candy wrappers sitting on top.

I went to Hunter's room (with Lanie tagging along so happy because she busted her sister) and told her what Lanie told me. Hunter hesitantly admitted it after a while. I made her apologized and warned her that it might hurt her chances of getting presents from Santa. (Oh yeah I'm rough!). ;) But then after we all thought the issue was dissolved, I went to get my SD card from my camera so I could upload my vacation photos. But guess what I found?! THIS!!

 Grr.... I love Blogger when it uploads it sideways!

And I honestly don't know when or how these got onto my camera!! I asked everyone but they said no. (Which means (again) I have to turn into Sherlock Holmes!)  I mean it's not like the camera got up and took its own photos and magically jump back into it's case!

Well I guess I should wish everyone a.......

!HAPPY HALLOWEEN!


Also I finished the My Dolls page so feel free to check that out now!

Vacation

Hi, I want to tell my viewers that I will be gone for 10 days starting today. I will be back the 30th. I'm doing this off my iPod so sorry that this is a quick post.

I am bringing a doll. She is Anna and she is not currently on the My Dolls page. She is MAG #35 and also in my blog button to the right. You can expect a lot of photos when I get back.

I may be able to do a post at sometimes due to Internet connection.

Thank you and bye!!

Garage Sale Finds Part 2

Hi everyone! IT'S MICKEY'S GIRL HERE! Ok first off I would like to say, I'm sorry for not posting in a while and I will be going on vacation for 10 days and will not be able to post during that time. But we'll get back to that later!

So once again, I went garage saling! And I go a bit overboard when we go garage saling! We went Friday and Saturday and I spent all of the 20 bucks I had! So I decided to make this a (sorta) series! ENJOY!

Ok so I got a small picture frame sized for my AG doll. I printed out a photo of Julie and cut to the size needed. (2"x1"1/2)  $0.50

Then I got another frame! I printed a large picture of Anna and cut it in half. ( 2"1/2 x 3" 1/2)

$0.50

Ok, this item may (make that, is!) be R@n:DoM but I thought it was unusual!

$1.00

Probably my best find of the day was this locker from Limited Too (now known as Justice). I guess is was used for a jewelery box of some sort? The detail on it was cool and its made out of metal, which, I can put bottlecaps on! It has shelves inside so it's great for storage!

$1.00

After I found that awesome item, I found this small totem pole, which, will go with Lanie's cultural collection! The lady who sold it said she had it about 40 years!

$0.25

At the same place I found that, I found this pair of small Teddy Bears. Their a little small for AG dolls but I knew that would happen when I got them. :)

$0.50 (both)

Next I found this Winnie the Pooh and Piglet storage box. I decided I'll use it for my Christmas doll who will be a major Disney fan! (And I put the Pooh bobble head on top). ;)

$2.00

Finally I found a big bag of play food that you would give to kids 3+. I sorted out what I thought was porportionate to my dolls. (Because I strive for perfection) :). I'm only showing you what was porportionate. Lets say three-forths of the bag worked for my dolls.

$1.00

It came with:

 A box of Vanilla Wafers, a box of Hamburger Helper, two boxes of Cheerios, two boxes of Old El Paso Taco Shells, and a Mcdonald's menu.

 11 krinkle fries, a box with Mcdonald's fries, a normal box of french fries, chicken nuggets, cookies, and three Pringles/Lays.

A Mcflurry, a fizzy soda bottle, a bottle of ketchup, two twisty bagguetes, a green bell pepper, a ice cream cone, a scoop of ice cream, and a pretzel.

Well that's everything I got! I will be bringing a doll on my vacation and will do a major picture post when I get back. I will try and tell you more tomorrow!

Madame Alexander Doll Review 18"

Good Evening! Mickey's Girl here to give you my awaited review on my Madame Alexander Doll!


My Madame Alexander or "Alexander Girlz" is sold currently at Costco for $25.99 but with tax adds up to around $30.00. So I thought I should do a product review on her.

!NUDE DOLL PHOTOS AHEAD!

To start I would like to say that Alexander Girlz are 181/2" inches not 18".

She does have a vinyl chest which makes her appear to look better in shirts and dresses. Her body however, in my opinion, is not stuffed as needed. Due to that, AG or Gotz doll's pants and skirts might fall off her behind or may be loose. Shirts, by AG etc. fit her quite well and look better due to vinyl chest like I said.

 Profile shot

Her head goes up, down, and side to side which, I got really excited about because I love doing Photography! One of her eyes has a tendency to try and close more than the other which is making me frusterated! :) Her face is absolutley beautiful.

Another thing I would like to point out is that her legs have worn out more in a week than my AG doll has in a year! I got Maddie a week ago and got Julie around this time last year and Julie has held up better. This is a disadvantage because I am not rough with my dolls that it would be like that.

(Excuse the off center photo of Julie)

Also if you happened to see that little bit of wavyness in Maddie's hair, that happened when I got her because she had two braids in her hair. I have soaked her wavy hair a bit and put in under some heavy books so I'm hoping that will help it. She kind of looks like Hermione Granger. : D

Since were on the topic of her hair, I would like to point out that Alexander Girlz hair is rooted. I personally do not like rooted hair compared to one with wigs (AG/Gotz). I have had bad experience with rooted hair but I must say that Maddie's hair is very high quality compared to other dolls with rooted hair. Now compared to AG dolls I would say that theirs no competition, AG wins.

Thats all right now that I could tell you! Tomorrow I'll be doing a comparison of Alexander Girlz against AG dolls. I'll try and get it up there but I may not due to schoolwork and hometeam at our church.

Thanks anyway! BYE

 :) Mickey's Girl (:

and

Maddie
