WOW.

My sisters, Miranda, and I are in HUGE shock! About ME! D: I'll tell the story from the beginning... Okay, so Miranda just got a call from one guy in London(not really! It's just in the story...), saying that his daughter, Willow Pine, will be coming to live with her twin sister Lanie. She explained that we have a Lanie HOLLAND, and that she thought he was a stalker. Well, they sorted things out, and I got a 'talk' from Miranda. First of all, my dad in Boston ISN'T my dad at all! Apparently, my mom(the one in Boston) and this guy who called me from London were married. They had moved to Boston before I was born. Sometime later, my mom found out she was going to have a baby in a few months, and they knew they were in trouble. So, after my twin Willow and I were born, my dad took Willow to live in London, and I stayed with my mom in Boston. My mom didn't want me to feel bad about me not knowing I had a sister, so she soon remarried, and I took THAT guy's last name; Holland. But, my dad recently got cancer, and he is worried that Willow will have nowhere else to go! So, just to be safe, and to meet me, he is sending Willow over to where Miranda and I live in June. I already got a phone call from Willow, and she said that she's going to miss living in the countryside outside of Birmingham England. Willow LOVES trees, but that's about it. She likes owls, because she herself is a 'night owl', and Willow LOVES to read! She has curly red hair and blue eyes, which came from her dad. The only similarity between us is curly hair. My mom and I both have curly blond hair and hazel eyes, while my dad and Willow have blue eyes and red hair. But, nonetheless, we are twins, and Miranda will welcome Willow into our home by making a miniature library for us dolls! Miranda's going to make sure that Willow's favorite books will be in there: Jane Austen books! :D Even SONALI is excited about Willow coming to live with us! But, with Willow here, we're going to need some more AG clothes, another bed, and MAYBE even another doll room! But, if Willow and I get a room, we'll have to share! :( Sad, yes, but we'll get along. And I KNOW she'll LOVE my BFF Lily Renae Tazo! :D So, I am in shock, but the GOOD shock! But I'm pretty sure Willow will be quite upset... not living in Birmingham with her sick dad that could die, and being apart from her friends, clean air, and the country where Jane Austen used to live! Oh, and I KNOW that Willow will LOVE the coffee shop inside of Barnes and Noble! :) ~Lanie PINE

YAY!!!

Well, the GOOD news is Miranda got plants today. :D

The BAD news is, they're all indoor plants, except two of them will need to be planted soon. :D

So... My birthday party won't happen for at LEAST another week. :(

Sad, isn't it. D:

Well, on the BRIGHT side, Miranda's going to have her dad re-rrange her/our room tomorrow, so that we don't have to be in the closet anymore!!! :D She also got a new curtain rod, because hers literally snapped in two like five months ago.

I, Gwen Anne Jacobs, has come out of her shell. THAT'S why I was acting so strange in Chrissa's newest post, for those of you who were wondering. :D

~Gwen

TAGGED! :D

Earlier on Phoebe's 100th post, she tagged us! Not Miranda, but the dolls here! Sooo... in commemoration of this, WE will EACH post 1 thing about ourselves, so that means we will write TEN random facts! :D

Hollie: I am a TOTAL bookworm, and I envy Gwen, because she's going to get a indle soon.

Gwen: My birthday is Pi day.

Lily: I am a girly tomboy. I'm not TOO girly, but I like to sometimes get down and dirty.

Lanie: Lily and I were BFF'S before I left the factroy, because we were pen pals.

Sonali: I had a dream where I was Scrooge, and I went through the Christmas thingy with seeing ghosts. It was fun. :)

Kirsten: Elizabeth and I are sisters, which is weird because there is 80 years between our eras

Elizabeth: I LOVE America, but I HATE American pie.

Felicity: I have NOT been a dynamic character like the rest of my doll buddies.

Chrissa: There was a period of time where I was emo.

Mini Rebbecca: I am minifying, but I LOVE to read big doll-sized books, like my meet book. It also took Miranda one hour to get me re-dressed becasue my thumb was stuck in my sleeve.

Welllll.... I don't tag anyone, because that requires work, and effort; and THAT requires energy. Something Miranda and all of us don't currently have. :(

~Miranda(who typed) and her dolls

Wow... presents...

Gwen was just relaxing on her bed, reading her book. She ever so tired of reading ALL about CAT, which she was allergic to. :( "I'M BORED! And sad, because no one appreciated me yesterday on my birthday..." Gwen mumbled.

"Ah....." Gwen sighed as she closed her book.

"Hey Gwen!" I said. Gwen turned in my direction, and she pushed the book off her bed.

"What?" she asked.

"Whoa... A BOOK!" Gwen said in awe.

A simple guide to Happiness, by Peter Pauper. (I got it at Barnes and Noble)

"WAIT! I'm not done yet!" I explained. Gwen was in the middle of her chapter. "WHAT???" She yelled.

Gwen gasped as her eyes landed on the bright red box all AG dolls knew all too well.

"Whoa... It's, it's..." Gwen stuttered.

"REBBECCA!!!" She screamed. She had been BEGGING for a Rebbecca doll for months!

"And to prove it, here's the back of the box..." I trailed off.

"Now scoot in closer to the box... and hold it like, yeah. Good!" I said as I snapped the shutter.

Gwen picked up the box lid, and she held it.

I tried to catch the action, but she was too fast, and the picture got kind of blurry.

She threw it on the floor, while hyperventilating.

"EEK!!! IT REALLY IS HER! And look! Her book is JUST my size!!! "

Gwen held the book in awe.
She had slowly reached into the box, and she silently, slowly, and carefully wrapped her fingers around the doll in the red coat. She held her up to the light.

"She's perfect." She whispered after a silence louder than any crowd.

"Thank you, Miranda! She's JUST the doll I wanted!" :)

Gwen got her book, her doll, and the doll's book, and she sat for a picture.

The doll. Isn't she gorgeous? Just a few words of advice: don't take off her red coat, don't brush her hair, and don't pull on her limbs, because they are attached just like an 18 inch AG doll! :)

~Miranda and Gwen(from Miranda's point of view.)

The Doll Conspiracy

Yesterday was Pi day, but I didn't get any presents! :( Apparently... I couldn't have a sleepover, a party, or even a trip to the movies! :( Well, at least Lily and Lanie felt bad about me not getting presents... Hollie, well... she... I don't want to talk about it. :"( Hollie is a mean big sister. I want to go back to living with Kirsten and Elizabeth! They remind of my mommy. :) Hollie is like that mean person that everyone knows. EVERYONE knows at LEAST one mean person.

But... on the BRIGHT side... Miranda's dad bought REAL doll sized eclairs! :D They are real food, AND I can have some this weekend! :D Even better than that, Miranda will make us a TON of doll-sized food this weekned out of clay! :) That way, we can re-use fake food instead of wasting real food that we can't even eat! :)

You see, to help us achieve maximum awesomeness, Miranda keeps us on a strict, healthy diet for the school week. On the weekends... We can sleep in and eat as much chocolate as we want! :D

Miranda: GWEN! You told too much already!
Me: so-
M: NO! NOW THEY KNOW ALL YOUR SECRETS! >:(
Me: Well, I guess I didn't think of it...
M: No, of COURSE you didn't think of it because you're a DOLL!
Me: :(
M: I'm sorry... How about I'll make some doll food?
Me: :)

Food. Yum. :)

~Gwen(With typing help from Miranda)

Pi day!

Tomorrow is Pi day! And for those of you who don't know, Pi day is ALSO Gwen's birthday! :D I wasn't thinking about Pi day in the Summer when I got Gwen, so her birthday was Pi day! :) Pi is used to find the area, and circumference of a circle, and the first 31 digits are(yes, I am a nerd for memorizing Pi!) : 3.141592653589793238462643383279 There's MILLIONS, if not TRILLIONS of digits of Pi, but hey, I have a life! So I only memorized Pi from the Pi song on YouTube(plus a number)

For those of you who are wondering, I will host Gwen's party this Saturday, and I may invite a friend who started her blog the same day i did! So... we're probably going to plant Marigolds, but it depends on the weather. And whether or not my mom takes me flower shopping. All my dolls will be there, and maybe, just maybe, My mom and I will have ordered Kanani and she may be here for the party! :D But probably not. :( Sorrow.

~Miranda and her dolls, but written from Miranda's perspective

Birthdays!

Oh my goodness, on March fourteenth, it's going to be my birthday! I, Gwen Anne Jacobs, will soon be eleven! My friends, Hollie, Miranda and I are going to be outside planting flowers for my birthday! Miranda has planned a picnic to be held after flower planting, and then we can play! Miranda may even let my plant a flower for her room! I was thinking maybe some impatiens... We're going to have a chocolate cake, and some vanilla cupcakes made with a special cake set Miranda got for me on my tenth birthday. I'm going to have a SUPER special post of the party, and of me decorating the cupcakes! :) I'm SUPER excited! I may even get to wear Lanie's designer boots!

Do you have any special plans for Spring? Or maybe there's a special(pretty) hairstyle you want to see me wear for my birthday? Please comment! :)

~Gwen

~Miranda and her wonderful dolls

Our first Spring adventure!

Due to the fact that it was warm a few days ago, Miranda took Hollie and I outside for our FIRST trip out of the house other than vacations! :D Oh, and for the record, Miranda kept on trying to post this post since Sunday, but her emo brother kept on kicking her off the computer before she could post it. :(

Hollie and I were just eagerly staring out the window, with high hopes of going outside into the lovely Spring weather. It had JUST gotten warm, and we had Spring Fever!

"Hollie, should we?" I whispered.

"CAN WE GO OUTSIDE??!!" We both yelled at the same time.

"Sure," Miranda replied, "Just be careful, and watch for bugs."

"YAY!!!" I screamed.

I ominously opened the front door, knowing that I could NOT screw this up(but I was certain I would find a way).

I took a reluctant step outside.

"I DID IT! Hollie, GET OUT HERE!" I squealed.

"Alright." she said as she walked outside and closed the door behind her.

"Hey, what's that?" Hollie pointed to a ceramic beaver.

"OMG, Hollie! That's a ceramic beaver! HOW could you be in 7th grade and NOT know what a beaver is?!" I yelled at Hollie.

"Cool, soil! Hey, and there's some dead plant remains!" Hollie exclaimed.

"I WANNA SEE, TOO!" I screamed as I shoved Hollie out of the way.

I then saw a plant.. wait... is this... ?

"OMJ! I LOVE HEN AND CHICKS!" I yet again, screamed.

Miranda took us to the backyard. It was desolate.

"Hey, Lanie, look! There's a water puddle here!" Hollie exclaimed as the wing picked up strength...

And Lanie's hat blew right off her head!

P.S. from Miranda: the wind really DID blow Lanie's hat off her head!

"My hat!" I screamed. Miranda put my hat inside.

We had managed to make it all the way to the top of the hot tub! With Miranda's help, of course! :)

"Look what I can do!" Hollie yelled to Miranda and I as she did the splits.

"Hey Hollie?" I said.

"What?" she replied.

"You're not as bad as I thought you were." I said.

"Thanks. You're alright, Lanie" Hollie whispered.

We had a doll huggy moment. :)

"Now lets go inside and get some ice tea." I told Hollie.

And that's what we did on Sunday. :)

~Miranda, Hollie, and Lanie
