Crochet Day!
Hi! Jaclynn here and I’m going to let Saige tell you what’s going on today š
“Hi everyone! Whew! Is it hot where you live? It’s about 90 degrees over here! I’ve been helping my mommy make some Minnie Mouse Hats for her craft fair in just 2 days!Ā I’m making all the pieces and she is sewing them together.”
“Caleb! What are you doing?” Saige asked.
“Hahaha! I do yown!” Caleb said. The word “Yown” means “Yarn” in toddler language š
“Caleb I need that so I can crochet!” Saige explained patiently.
Before she knew it- Caleb was climbing down the chair- yarn and all!
“Caleb!” Mommy said. “What are you doing?” Mommy had a talk with him and he gave back the crochet.
“Thanks, mommy! Now, where is my crochet hook? Caleb!!” Saige exclaimed.
Jaclynn again- I have been preparing for my craft fair all day! I’m really excited for it but the last few days of preparation can be pretty stressful! Hehe!
Did you like seeing a bit of what Caleb is like? He’s so hilarious!
I hope you’re all having a wonderful day! And I just want to apologize for not posting so much but I have been so busy. I thought I would take the opportunity to do a mini post for all of you. All of you girls are such great friends š
Do you like crafting? Have you ever been to a craft fair before?
~Jaclynn
Did Caleb get a time out?:) hahaha!!!
LOLOLOLOL! No, I just explained things to him, he said sorry (or “owwy” in his language!), and he gave it back š
They only get time out if they’re being really bad! Hehe!
~Jaclynn
It’s really hot up here! I just got home from my friends house, where I jumped on their trampoline with the hose on it! It felt really good!
Hehe! That was really funny! I LOVED seeing what he was like! He is hilarious!
I LOVE crafting! I’m actually in the middle of making a room out of a bookshelf for Saige once she comes in a month. I don’t know if I’ve been to a craft fair before, but it sounds fun!
Oh, and are you going to update the meet my dolls page tomorrow?
I hope you enjoy the craft fair!
~Carli
That sounds like it would feel amazing! Hehe!
LOL! Isn’t he? I love him š
How cool! *GASP*! One month?!?!? YAAAY! LOLOL!
It is really fun! Especially selling at one- hehe!
Oh, my gosh! I forgot again! I don’t think I’m going to be able to tomorrow but we’ll see! Sorry about that š
Thanks! I will š
~Jaclynn
It is hot here! But I don’t mind. Tonight we had a National day of Prayer gathering. š We had a bonfire!
Caleb is so cute! I liked your post. š
~Christian Homeschooler
Oh, that’s cool!
Hehe- thank you š
~Jaclynn
That’s okay that you haven’t been posting. I understand. But I DO like your posts. š
90 degrees is hotter than what is is here though. š
Thanls for understanding š And I’m glad you like my posts!
Yeah, it was really hot yesterday! And at the craft fair it’s going to be about the same! And that will be awful because it’s outside :/
~Jaclynn
I guess you will have to dress for the occasion. But isn’t hot better than cold? That is what I think. š
~Christian Homeschooler
Yeah, in a way but since we’re vendors we have to be there at 8 in the morning all the way until 5 o’clock at night. So either way it’s not very fun- LOL! Like if it’s cold I’m constantly freezing- and if it’s hot I’m constantly sweating! Hehe!
~Jaclynn
Well that’s not so fun. I guess you have to wear sleeveless and a short skirt or something, but put a BIG coat over it.
~Christian Homeschooler
I like making stuff for my dolls, on Wednesday I made some snow cones for my dolls and my sisters’ dolls.
I have never been to a craft fair. Is it fun?
I hope your craft fair goes well. š
~Christian Homeschooler
That’s so cool! How did you make them- with clay?
Really? Well the one we do is very fun! Ones at like schools aren’t though. But this one is at a place called Hillside Farm and they have it twice a year. They are super famous for their ginger cookies and there are such long lines to buy them that it’s as if you’re standing in line for a ride! There are over a hundred vendors selling quilts, woodwork, pottery, etc. And there’s like a whole long wall with actual buildings built that are like you’re in a town from Little House on the Prairie. So there’s a blacksmith, lumber, merchantile- etc. It’s very peaceful there too! They also have a place called the Chuck Wagon and they sell burgers, hotdogs, and donuts in the morning! I LOVE being there! It’s just so amazing and I wish I could live there.. š
Thank you so much! I’m hoping to get enough money to buy the doll I want!
~Jaclynn
I actually made them with a glossy paper, two cotton balls glued together, and I colored the cotton balls blue-with sharpie, to be sure that it wouldn’t come off. I can actually send you a picture of them sometime. š
Wow! That sounds fun. š So I guess you get a lot of people looking at your stuff? I hope you get enough money for the doll that you want!
Aaaah-I see! That’s very creative! Sure- I’d love to see it š
Yeah, I do! Sometimes people think my dolls are for sale and I’m like- Uh-no! LOL!
Thank you! I probably will- it depends on how busy it is š
~Jaclynn
Okay! I’ll have to upload them then. Hopefully you can send me an email when you aren’t so busy. š
Oh NO! š Hopefully the dolls don’t get too hot. I would be afraid for them if it was 90 degrees.
~Christian Homeschooler
But dolls wouldn’t actually be a craft, unless you made them, so that’s actually not logical. š
~Christian Homeschooler
I know! But the people think I made them! LOL! And they’ll be like “Oh, how much are they?” And I’m like “Oh, no the dolls aren’t for sale. Only the stuff they’re wearing and the things on the table!” LOL!
~Jaclynn
Hehe! It did feel good!
Yes! He seems really funny, but then again, it might not have been as funny for me if I was in Saige’s place…
Thanks! I KNOW!!! I’M SOOOO EXCITED!!!!
Oh okay, that’s fine.
So what are you going to get with the money you get? The MAG that you wanted?
~Carli
LOL! Well, she’s getting used to him. And everyone else has been used to him so they try not to get upset- Hehe! š
YAY! EEEEEK!!! Are you going to the store to get her?
Yep! And some outfits and accessories- hehe!
~Jaclynn
Hehe!
Uh- I haven’t actually thought about going to the store to get her. I think I’m just going to order her, but if I can convince my mom to drive me then, maybe!
Oh okay! What outfits are you planning to get?
~Carli
LOLOL! I hope you can convince her! It’s so much more fun to buy dolls in person š
Uh- well, definitely the Cozy Sweater and the Western Riding outfit. But then I might get the Easy Breezy outfit or the Plaid Party outfit! It’s so hard to decide! Hehe!
~Jaclynn
The bitty twins are so cute! I almost wish I had one!
~Christian Homeschooler
They are cute! You should get some! It’s like you’re getting 2 dolls for the price of one! And they add so much to playtime too š
~Jaclynn
I would probably want a 18″ doll more, though. I think if I could pick which ones, I would want the brown haired girl and the Hispanic girl. I don’t think I would want a boy doll. LOL!
Yeah, I can understand that.
Really? But they look so alike! Hehe! Why not? They can be funny! š
~Jaclynn
Well, yes. But I am still not sure that I would want one. š
Christian Homeschooler-
Okie-dokie! Yeah, I know- I’ll try to reply as soon as I can!
I know! Whenever it’s hot there I constantly feel their faces and then I try to get them out of the sun. It stresses me sometimes but they’re usually fine š
Yeah, I’ll be fine š
~Jaclynn
Yeah, I figured you would. š
Jaclynn: That’s so funny- in a way-but in a different way it’s like: NO(shreak)! Don’t touch my precious dolls!
~Christian Homeschooler
LOLOLOLOL!!! Exactly! I laugh that they actually ask if they’re for sale but then inside I’m like “DON’T TOUCH MY BABIES!!!” LOL! I actually am going to make a sign that says “Dolls are NOT for sale!” and another one saying “DO NOT TOUCH THE DOLLS!” Hehe!
~Jaclynn
LOL! That’s a good idea! š
~Christian Homeschooler
Oh well that makes sense!:)
Yeah, that would be fun! Okay, new misson: convince mom to take me to the AG store to get Saige! Hehe!
Oh okay! I LOVE those outfits! Do you plan to go to the store to get the doll?
~Carli
LOLOL! Good luck on that mission! Hehe!
Me too! I’m hoping to! I wanna try to go with my friend Emma in June š
~Jaclynn
Cute story! and by any chance is the outfit Saige is wearing for sale? Like when you sell outfits you make. Sorry its a little random lol
Thank you, Theresa!
Hehe! It’s not random at all! Yes, it is for sale- I have 2 other color combinations too. I’m selling them for $22 if you’re interested š
~Jaclynn
okay I might just buy one then but I’ll have to think about it. š
~ Theresa
Okie-dokie! If you want to order something you could order it from my Etsy shop š
Looking forward to hearing back from you š
~Jaclynn~
Oh and also, by the way where do you sell your outfits at? I would love to look at all of them. š
~ Theresa
