Thank you CloakedSchemer for the wonderful gifts. My girl loves them and I definitely find the sock you sent for me very comfy ^^ 20241211_145136 20241212_031518 (Sorry that these aren't bbcode. I don't use a computer anymore and using my phone doesn't give me the option for those codes. So they have to be links sadly -__-)
So glad she loves them! And that the socks are comfy! It was fun sewing for her. (and the little drinks are actually lipgloss if you would rather make them useful for you instead of for her. ) And my swap gift arrived today from @arrowchild and everything is adorable!! Nina: UNCLE BREN!! I have presents!!! Bren: Open them!! Nina: Read this for me! Bren: You're in first grade, what are they teaching you?? Read it yourself! Nina: It says....."Merry Christmas! I hope.....it's the....best....one....ever. To Nina from....Par.....Pa....Pair....?" Bren: "Paris." Nina: "From Paris!" Nina: PRESENT TIME! Nina: It's nightgown! Bren: Yeah, and in good colors, not like...stupid pink bows or Paw Patrol. Nina: YES! Nina: A WHOLE TRAY OF COOKIES??? Bren: You're gonna share those cookies, right? Nina: Um. NO. Nina: What's in here? Nina: -screams and happy bounces!!- GOOSEBUMPS BOOK! I DON'T HAVE THIS ONE YET! YESSSSSSS!!!!! THANK YOU PARIS AND ARROWCHILD THIS SO COOL!!!!!! -Later that day- Nina: Ok, Uncle Bren. Try not to get too scared and cry. Bren: I don't get scared of stories! Nina: Ok. But if you do, I'll try not to laugh. But I will laugh. Thank you so much to Arrowchild for the awesome swap gifts! As you can see, Nina is overjoyed!
You’re very welcome @CloakedSchemer I’m so glad Nina likes her stuff, (she’s so cute!) I had a ton of fun with her swap goodies! Also your photo story made my day!
Paris' swap gifts have arrived! Paris: Is this...for me...? Me: Yes!!!! Paris: A card! And it looks just like your card! And stickers! Thanks Demian! Me: You love stickers! Paris: Skeletons AND dragons?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Paris: Look!!!! My insides are on my outsides! MY INSIDES ARE ON MY OUTSIDES!! *scampers away* Me: Paris: Thanks dm_sof and Demian! Thank you so much @dm_sof ! Everything is SO cute and Paris is definitely the most huggable of all my crew right now in that onesie.
I can't make onesies for my larger dolls because all I want to do once they're in one is cuddle them So glad they arrived safely and are loved!
My package from @Tokimimotaku arrived today! I was on my way out the door when I was handed the just-collected package, so I dragged Demian to the library with me so we'd have a slightly more aesthetic place to photograph than my messy living room. (EDIT: I've gone through and swapped the broken links with smaller thumbnails in hopes of that making them work again) Demian: So this is my package? Me: Yep! It just arrived. D: You're going to blur the address in the pictures, right? So no one kidnaps me? M: You're not going to be kidnapped, Demian. D: Because you're going to blur the address? M: Right, because I'm going to blur the address... And also because someone could buy ten of you for the cost of travelling to remote Alaska. D: There is only one me. M: Whatever you say, kiddo. D: I am not a kiddo. I am a young man. Now open this; I want my presents. And I want Sir Penwyvern. M: Just because you learned the difference between dragons and wyverns doesn't mean you can't still call him Sir Pendragon. D: His name. Is Sir. Pen. Wyvern. M: This pretty tin was inside the box. D: I want it to be my toy box. M: It's almost big enough to be your bed. D: You're right. It's not big enough for a toy box. M: Oi. Let's just open it. M: There's stickers in with the cards. D: As there should be in every card. M: What do you think? D: It's very pretty. Just like me. M: Shall we open the pajamas first, or the extra gifts? D: Gifts! M: There's a cute little plush cookie and a Christmas tree lamp! D: The tree is perfect, and I shall call the cookie Mr. Crumble. M: Pajamas now? D: Yes! D: Ooh, ooh, ooh, I have a sleep cap! Just like a proper little boy! M: Or a grumpy old man. D: You have no sense of style. M: How are we feeling? D: I am a prince and you are all beneath me. M: Of course, my liege. Shall we take your proper photo now? D: I shall allow that. Merry (belated) Christmas from Demian and me! Bonus: Demian lying down for the nap he insists he's too old for while I did some sewing.
