Making a new arrival feel right at home

Last week, a much anticipated doll finally arrived, she is a custom creation Made by Fig and Me.  Through my descriptions of what our family is like and some choices on color, Fabs of Fig and Me created this lovely and perfect for us doll!

But first off to the Post Office to pick her up!

Passengers in the car that got to accompany us, Marigold a Fig and Me, sent to us From Aunti Jessie and a little GooseBeary girl,named Joy.

Boxes are always so exciting!

 

Off we go!

Well before we got to driving we did open the box, to let the little dear breath!  And surprise the boys with the Frog!  So she road home just wrapped in her tissue paper.

First Hug

On to the deck to have some lovely first photos and meet her sister Marigold!

So sweet together

Just like sister, hugging all ready!

Here is "Pretty Girl"  With her Pet frog.

Really Beautiful Brown and Blondes Hair mix

Pretty Girl is going to have lots of advnetures with us, with in just a few days, she has all ready started, the boys found a lovely little garden toad to share with her!

 She liked him!

He liked her!

and Fi, enjoys the one Pretty Girl came with perfect for holding, loving and squishing!

Off on an adventure

When you can quietly observe your child at play and unobtrusively follow them you get to witness some of the sweetest play time you will ever see.

The other morning my sweet 4 year old was watching TV, when very non-chalantly he reached over and scooted Marigold our Fig and Me doll into his arms.  And I thought how sweet does that look, hurry where's the camera!  Quietly, he mustn't know you have the camera!

So sweet sitting there watching a TV show and just hugging and fidgeting with the bow on her head.

Of course a little boy never sits still for to very long, so when he hopped off the bed, I followed, I was very interested to see what they might be up to.



Hmmmmmmm not getting far, a sit down on the front porch, to check over Marigold's very interesting yarn hair.  I love watching his little hands at work!

Off again, The little dude that has joined them is His buddy Lemon, Lemon likes to go places upside down, for a different look at where he is headed.  And where is this group headed?

Ahhhhh yes off to the Trampoline!  Of course everyone loves a good bounce.

Wow an action shot, I hope nobody gets dizzy!

Everyone is having a good time.

Okay I did finally ask him to hold still for a second so I could get one nice pic of all of them, what a happy cute group!

Marigold

Posting some pics of our Fig and Me Doll Marigold!  Later this month, she will be joined by another Fig and Me!  In the mean time Marigold is wondering if she needs a new wardrobe?

The two littls misses both felt like wearing butterflys today!

One is getting a little tired and is going to take a nap.

Good Nap, see you when I wake up.

So then what happens when Fionna is napping, does Marigold just wait?

Or does she go off and check out the boys maybe do a little gardening?

Everything is looking Great from the swing set.

Lounging on the Deck while the boys swim for a while

Of course Marigold had to see the garden Marigolds!

A Very Pretty Marigold

Sitting right amongst the flowers

Of course the Petunia's are worthy of a visit too!

Done just before dinner time!

Just around the Garden

The Beginning of June!

Love how this pot is growing!  Great colors, buttery yellow, pinks, purples, black and mini sunny flowers starting in the back!  I am going to enjoy looking at this pot all summer!

 The Gnome with his pal Frog stand at the entrance to my boys shrine to pet Kermit a Firebelly Toad, he was lovingly  layed to rest under this stone monument.

   

Thank You

A Small Walk Around the Pond

Today was a good day!  It is always a good day when the boys find a frog to hold onto for a bit! 

I do believe this Frog is smiling!

Hey little bother meet Mr. Frog!



Really if you look super close and super carefully you can see some of these in the pond!

Tadpoles

 The hands of little boys love to explore and observe everything they are not afraid to pick up anything!

Look who we found sitting in a pine tree

A Baby Robin

We weren't sure what he was doing all by himself sitting there, but we hope everything was going well for him.  By the end of the afternoon, the boys reported on one of their trips to check on him he wasn't there anymore.  Hope that means could things for the little bird!
