It is a balancing Act.

Hey everyone!

Yep I am alive lol. I think *pinches myself* yep.. that hurt!

There is a store closing its door in Second Life, and I know you guys have heard of it. It is called Little Closet. Right now EVERYTHING in the store is 50L. Not sure how long the closing sell is going to last.. but hurry and run and buy her store out, her stuff is totally cute and perfect for Toddleedoo's! Most stuff is for kids and baby TD.


This whole outfit I am wearing came from Little Closet.

Sunflowers and Sunshine!

Very soon, it's going to be getting cooler and the leaves will be changing beautiful colors. I love the calmness I feel in the fall and winter seasons, but the spring and summer are so happy and I will miss that too. I saw a picture of a little girl and her mom in a sunflower field today that represented that summer happiness so well that I wanted to recreate it in SL. I knew I wouldn't have the talent to make the pose though, so I just Plurked the pic. Upon doing so, however, my wonderful and thoughtful cousin, Belle Elizabeth Swann-Oleander, offered to make the pose for my mom and I ♥ She did such an amazing job too! And so quickly! I am so, so appreciative! ♥ I think the windlight did well showing the transition between end of summer and very beginning of fall. Here is the result:

And closer up:

One day, I'll get better at this blogging thing and will add more details of what I'm wearing, etc. But for now, it's just pics! And the fact that you gain knowledge on who makes wonderful poses :) You can visit her Marketplace store here: ..Lovely Dear Poses..}

Let's do the Charleston

Ohai Everyone,

I got an invite to my cousin's family birthday party and when I seen the theme I was a little unsure. I mean a twenties themed tea party was hard 'nuff to dress for, but her theme was Vintage 1920 tea & BSB party.

After my 'nitial shock. I realized I was gonna hafta pick either Vintage or BSB.. so I chose vintage. I thought it was gonna be so hard to find something perfect to wear, but it wasn't at all.

First stop Little Closet. Noel Button creates such cute clothes. Some have that vintage look too them and I found the perfect dress there. (Btw, Noel makes cute houses too at Dust Bunny).

Okay dress picked out! Done.. Now, hair. I like to collect hairs, so I was sure I had one that would work... I just needed to find it and I did. Dura makes some of the cutest hairs (baby hair too) and they made the perfect hair that will work for twenties vintage style.  After going to a couple more stores and digging through my inventory closet.. (believe me, its gross in there and smells like dirty socks) I was all ready.

The party was so much fun.. and BSB themselves performed! Well, we were able to 'magine they did.
Cause my cousin Payton made cut outs of the whole band.

My cousin Riley was so happy, and she deserves to smile lots!

I will be talking to you soon <3 Have a fun rest of the week!

My MaggieMae

Ohai Friends!

This is my dog Maggie Mae. She is one of my bestest friends. I tell her all my secrets and she never ever tells anyone. She is mine only so I hafta take her for walks, bathe her, and clean up her accidents *wrinkles my nose*.

It was so pretty and warm outside yesterday, I decided to take Maggie for a long walk. (Maggie is my nickname for MaggieMae, in case I confused you by calling her Maggie)

Maggie ran all over the yard, stopping to sniff at every flower, chased every butterfly.  She wore me out and it wasn't long before she wore herself out too..
She has this favorite spot in like a valley of flowers. And if she is ever missing, that is always where I find her! So when she ran off, I knew exactly where to find her.  And sure 'nuff, there she was laying in the middle of the field of flowers. She looked some comfortable, I decided it would be nice and relaxing to just sit here for a little while, to rest before going back home. BUT I fell asleep!

I am so glad there were no monsters around, you know the purple kind, the one that eats kids? Maggie protected me really good. That is probably why the purple monster didn't eat me up or anything. I am supposed to clean my room before Momma and Daddy get home ( I think I clean my room a gazillion times a week)

Butterflies

Gosh It has been awhile since Birdy or I blogged, and I am so sorry about that. We hope to get better at keeping up a schedule!

Our family has been on vacation in the Rainforest, and it has been so amazing and beautiful.. very wet though.. guess that is why they call it the rainforest huh?

There are tons of nature around us, and anyone that knows me, knows I love anything with wings. Fairies and Butterflies being my two favorites. Welp, in the rainforest I have found so many butterflies, but everytime I would go to catch one, Momma, Daddy or my Aunt and Uncle had something that the family needed to do. (not complaining just 'splaining) .. but this morning I got up before anyone else, and got dressed in this cute outfit I found at the la boutique Event from {Blubb} created by my friend Jennah. (Who is amazing btw!)

And went on a butterfly hunt.. and I finally caught one!

Isn't it so pretty? Like this bright glowing blue color. I thought about getting a jar and putting it in there to take it home with me, but then I realized butterflies aren't meant to be kept in Jars, they are meant to fly around and make things beautiful. So I let it go.. I hope I see it again before we leave.
I smell breakfast cooking and my tummy is grumbling.. so I am gonna go eat. I hope to talk to you guys soon!

Outfit -{Blubb} Lily in Green ~
Shoes - {Lil Big Me} Pranks & Toddleedoo Clothing - Hana Sandals

Oh you know .. just kids.

Whoa I just realized that Birdy and I haven't done a blog post in like forever. I am so sorry for that, things just got crazy. But we are back and just in time to show you something tons of fun!

I am sure a ton of you know Marianne McCann, well she has had a store named You Know, For Kids. And she made this foam bat and ball that is so much fun! You can smack your siblings over the head with the foam bat.. all you have to do is walk into them, and throw the foam balls at them in mouselook.. and it doesn't even hurt!.

I wanted to show my sissy Birdy how it worked, but for some reason she didn't trust me... she took off runnin.. sometimes I forget she is only 6, and I am 8. And she is still a scaredy cat.

I better go.. I think I see momma, she might not understand I was just trying to SHOW sissy something. Not really chasing her or anything :)

Make sure you check out You Know, For Kids  I know the name says for kids but its really for all ages, tons of  New and Retro Toys and Novelties. Promise you, it is not a waste of time.

What better than a War Turtle?

In keeping with Abby's theme, what better companion to have when fighting zombies than a War Turtle?! They're quicker than the average tortoise and come equipped with saddle, reigns, and some sharp spikes in case one of those zombies tries to sneak up from the side or behind!

Act quick! They're selling now at The Fantasy Collective! They come in sizes for male, female, kids, AND mermaid (seriously!). Toddleedoos, they're designed for regular kid avatars, but have no fear! If you make a copy of your shape, then increase the "Hover" slider, it will work perfectly for you too! (you "wear" the turtle, so if you don't increase the slider, the turtle will be in the ground - just add the shape to the turtle folder!)

Most of what I'm wearing is not currently for sale. This post is allll about the turtle! Find it at The Fantasy Collective here. If you don't make it by Feb. 13th, you might still be able to purchase it at sh0rtie Resident's store, SWaGGa, here. I wouldn't take any chances though!
