Roberta’s Babysitting Adventure: Part 3
Holly started to cry as soon as the door closed. I guess she realized that Molly and Millie had officially left her with this strange Rabbit. I tried humming and walking again, but it didn’t work. I decided to see if maybe Holly was hungry. In the fridge, I found a bottle labeled “2:30 – heat for 30 seconds in the microwave.” Even though it wasn’t quite 2:30 (nowhere near, actually), I decided that maybe we should give it a try. I heated the bottle, made sure it wasn’t too warm, and then sat down with Holly on my lap. And she drank the whole thing! After that, she seemed kind of sleepy again. Since she wasn’t crying, I figured it would be smart NOT to move her. So I sat on the couch and lo and behold – she fell sound asleep! After about 20 minutes, she got SUPER heavy, but I still didn’t move. And after about 10 minutes more, I heard the sound I had been waiting for – the turning of a doorknob. “We’re home!” came Molly’s mom’s voice. You can only imagine how surprised she was when she saw Holly and I alone in the … Read more
Roberta’s Babysitting Adventure: Part 2
Millie burst into tears. Her nose was bleeding and I don’t do so well with blood, so Molly said “Roberta, you take care of Holly – I’ll help Millie.” I ran into the spare room and saw Holly standing up in her crib. She was so cute! But so freaked out to see me. I guess she was expecting to see her mom or her aunt, because as soon as she laid eyes on me, she began to wail much louder. I decided I should try to pick her up. I didn’t realize how heavy she’d be! I managed to scoop her out of her crib (somewhat awkwardly) and hold her against my shoulder. She was REALLY upset at that point (can you say hysterical?), but I started walking around the room, humming a little tune. After a few minutes, she started to calm down. After about ten minutes of walking, she was just whimpering. I walked into the living room with her and found Molly sitting with Millie, who was holding an ice pack on her nose. “I think her snout might be really hurt,” Molly said nervously. “I’m going to see if Debbie Dragon can drive us to … Read more

Roberta’s Babysitting Adventure: Part 1
Guess what I did today? I babysat! And it went…well, let me tell you the story. Molly called me first thing this morning and said “guess who’s in town?” I guessed Dacey Bryn and SantaKinz, and then she stopped me and said, “No! My Aunt Maria and my cousin Holly!” And I said, “Great!” And she said, “Want to help me babysit Millie and Holly this afternoon?” And I said, “Sure!” I figured it would give me some practice with babies. You know, for when my sibling is born. I arrived at Molly’s house at around 1:30. Holly had just gone down for a nap, so I thought we were in for a pretty easy afternoon. Molly’s mom and aunt were going to go out shopping for two hours, so it wasn’t as if we were going to be babysitting for a long time. Molly’s mom said that they’d probably be back before we heard a peep from Holly. And that might’ve been the case. If it hadn’t been for…Millie. Molly and I had just locked the door behind her mom and aunt, when Millie came running down the hall yelling “LET’S GET READY … Read more
Hailey and Elwin’s Meeting and Break Room
Hailey and I agreed that when we had a studio of our own, we’d have an awesome break room. We also needed a very spacious and official looking meeting area. In this case, it’s the same room! We just got creative in how we divided it up. As you can see, the left part of our room is all about meetings. We’ve got a big, long boardroom-type table, some delicious snacks (and a fancy drink machine), and a fireplace (for ambiance!). On the right side of our room, we’ve got a kitchen and seating area. And let me tell you, that couch is surprisingly comfy and nap-worthy. Not that I’d know from experience. Ahem. Anyway, I’m really pleased about how the whole thing turned out. Having two doors makes it extra-convenient to go into part of the room while not disturbing anything that’s happening in the other area. What do you think of our meeting room, friends?

Roberta’s Sibling
Dear Diary, I told my friends about the fact that I’m going to be a big sister pretty soon (in a few months!). I also told them about having to move – even though we’re not leaving Kinzville, it’s another big change and I wanted to share it with them. And know what? Each of my friends had a different opinion on what was happening. Unsurprising, since all of my friends are very…well…different! Stoogles: said that siblings are overrated. Of course, that could be because he has about a dozen of them. He said that sharing a bathroom is no fun, and sharing toys is even worse. I reminded him that I’m going to be a lot older than my brother or sister, so the toy thing isn’t an issue. And since we’re moving, we’ll probably have more than one bathroom in the house. Salley: said that she was happy for me, and even a little jealous. She’s always wanted a sibling. Cowabelle: said that babies are a lot of trouble and make a TON of noise. She said I could escape to her house whenever I wanted, and told me to encourage my parents to … Read more

Laurabeard’s Diary
Dear Diary, I’m still kind of freaked out by what happened when we followed the footprints that had been left by the thief. It’s so strange – the footprints didn’t lead to any of the crew’s cabins. Instead the trail led to the cargo hold. In fact, it led to a pile of barrels and then disappeared. Dogbeard pushed aside the barrels and there was all of the missing food that the cook had been complaining about. What was left of the food anyway – there were lots of wrappers and apple cores and banana peels. There was also a small bed made up behind the barrels, as if someone has been sleeping there, but who could it be? Dogbeard says that it’s a stowaway, someone who snuck on board and has been hiding out there since we set sail. We searched around for the stowaway but they’re pretty good at hiding because we had no luck. To be honest, it’s kind of creepy to think that there is a stranger on board ship. I wonder why they’re here. I guess that’s why I find it so hard to sleep at night and I’m here writing in my diary. Whoever … Read more

Hailey and Elwin’s Reception & Consulting Room
Hailey here. So here is our new reception area and I know what you’re thinking. I thought exactly the same thing when Elwin showed up with the dinosaur. What the heck is THAT doing there? Elwin says that our reception is going to be where clients get their first impression of our work and that we needed to knock them out with an unforgettable ‘statement piece’. At first I thought he was crazy but before long Tyrone really started to grow on me. With the monotone feel of the orange walls and parquet flooring, it really is cool to have one item that just jumps out at you. Or rather looks as if it might jump out at you – literally. We used some awesome pieces from the Avante Condo Theme for our reception area to tie in with the orange color scheme, but we created a contrasting conversation area with a couple of purple sofas mixed with orange accent tables. Elwin’s right about creating an impression. I really think this room has a lot of impact. Oh, and just between us – please don’t tell Elwin that I’ve … Read more
