meet jane :)

kelly has been longing for a blythe doll all summer. 

"oooh they are so cute mommy! i really really really REALLY love them!!"

she's seen bella & her adorable blythes.  squealing at the especially adorable cool things bella & her blythes do together.  she has continuously dreamed of having one of her own, every day all summer long.

so i had been looking on ebay.  peeking, really not thinking i would actually buy one.  there are so many things to know, & some of the terminology is really foreign (not to mention they are only sold in japan!) so it all can be a bit overwhelming at first.  but i looked around, learned a lot about blythe & figured what i was comfortable paying & what was a good deal. then a few weeks ago i stumbled across the very one she has been wanting, nicky lad, and for a very good price from a reputable seller.  

so i bought it for her early one morning before she woke up.  it was all i could do not to tell her that it was on it's way, when she came down the steps that morning and as the days went by, it was positively KILLING me not to tell.  the only thing that held me over were the e-mails from mel & tamar with fabulously adorable links of things to make or buy for blythe when she did get here.  & as the days went on i thought i really could actually save it for her birthday...yeah...no problem...

i really could do it.  just put it up in the closet & not think about it until november....riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight :)

but then the doorbell rang this afternoon & i opened it up to find our mail carrier standing there with THE box needing a signature, & i completely freaked out! 

& i totally couldn't keep the secret any longer...the excitement was just all too much!

"kelly!  a special delivery!!!"

ryan, my clever & intuitive little boy, says "oh, what did she get?  a Blythe doll?"

kelly immediately freaked out.  FREAKED OUT!!!!!  running & spinning & jumping all around "no way...NO WAY!!!!!! open it mommy!  OPEN IT!!!!!!!!"

& i opened it up & pulled it out & it was officially "the best day ever!!!!"

she is totally over the moon :)

(kate is crying, meanwhile..."i wanted a blythe doll TOO! why does kelly get the best day ever?"...oy....so while kelly spins around on cloud 9, i had to sit & console kate w/ all the lovely things she has very special.  she settled down & is now up playing with her liv doll, katie, and kelly & jane setting up house. :)

welcome to the kennedys, jane :)

happy wednesday!!!

great post Gi-I love it! Don't you remember wanting something so badly when you were that age? I wanted an easy bake oven like crazy (they were oldfashioned and real metal way back then) I still remember how excited I was to finally get it. Congrats to your sweet, happy little girl.
