It's my new Blythe doll. It's my only Blythe doll. It will always be my only Blythe doll.
Four kids, six special needs and one salary does not equal spending cash for a $300 doll. Not even a $150 doll fits in our budget. I knew I'd never be able to have one of the full size Blythes. That's okay. I think the petites are cuter--with a nicer smile. A petite will fit in my ca
mera bag. A petite is in my budget..or at least this one was.Meet my $
20 doll (including shipping from Hong Kong.) Happy Mother's Day to me! I am so excited.Her official name is Running Deer. She came in Native American garb.
She is now Lilly-Jane, with slightly shorter hair and a new wardrobe thanks to the kindness of the little brat dolls. Okay, so the little brat dolls did not want to share. I'm bigger than they are. And I don't take attitude. Well, maybe a little attitude--from Lilly-Jane.
Head Honcho thinks I'm crazy. He says Lilly-Jane looks possessed and needs prozac. He also calls her mini-me, says she looks just like me. (She's a few dress sizes smaller though.) What does that mean?
Oh well. I'm happy. Lilly-Jane is happy. Happy Mother's Day to all of you too!

Your blog just flat out MAKES ME SMILE. I am such a SERIOUS person, faaaarrrr too much of the time, and YOU make me pause and smell the roses. I LOVE THAT!
Lilly-Jane is cute as button (although I did laugh out loud at possesed/ prozac comment, cause I can sorta kinda see that too). HA!!
Keep your credit card under lock and key. Lilly-Jane is not one to settle for hand-me-downs from some upstart brats.
