First of all, thanks to all of you who gave input on the boy hairstyles…very helpful. I learned what a faux-hawk was which was pretty exciting!;) In other news, one of my newest friends Mimi asked if she could do a little interview for Handmade News a couple of months ago. I was happily surprised…
Things have finally settled down enough around here that I enjoyed a few hours of drawing today while the girls slept. I started work on the highly requested Boy Doll. I think I’m going to call him Brother Doll (but would love to hear some ideas from you on that). I thought I’d share some…

Norah loves Auntie Brittany’s laptop “All children need a laptop. Not a computer, but a human laptop. Moms, dads, grannies and grandpas, aunts, uncles – someone to hold them, read to them, teach them.
