A new sweater and Noel meets Miles

Well it seems Noel is well impressed with those that knit....he has a sweater already!  Now he is dressed he felt ready to meet Miles.

They were very pleased to meet each other, and Miles was pleased to have another boy in a household full of girls!

Two boys in their new sweaters...I think Miles is slightly envious of Noel's more 'boyish' colours, but Noel explained he needed something more neutral because of his colouring....

They discuss their hopes for real snow this Christmas, although us here at Rose Cottage would rather it didn't snow...however, they want snow so they can go and ride their sleds...

So perhaps it would be nice if it snowed to order on Christmas Day?

Meet Noel

Quite some time ago a brother arrived here at Rose Cottage for Miles...but well he just has been lying around...

....not quite able to pull (put) himself together.   

Finally though with Christmas looming he decided it was time to get his act into gear.

Before long it seems Noel was wanting to make his presence known...although he would have preferred not quite such an embarrassing photo!

Ah, that is better....although I see he has already scuffed his shoes... will have to get Becassine to have words with him about that!  

He has informed us that he hopes he doesn't have to wait as long as his brother Miles did to get a shirt or sweater....

Cheeky boy!

Miles on his Skateboard

Us girls at Rose Cottage feel a bit sorry for Miles, him being the only boy in our family, but he seems content enough and we had to smile when we watched outside on his skateboard this afternoon.

Of course why he doesn't feel the cold is anybodies guess!  These youngsters!

He has a face...

and is looking very happy as well.

He also has a name...as he had to travel across the miles to get here, he is called Miles (of smiles)

Now I need to get cracking and make him some clothes!

Little Boy is getting painted

Yeah, our person is painting our new boy's face today...

Here is is head and torso before she started.

Waiting for the first layers to dry...

Hitty Moana is overseeing the work as I, (Hitty Patience) are busy preparing some of the Christmas decorations with the other girls.

Hmmm...what do you think so far?

The new boy arrives

Goodness Hitty Patience, who/what do you think this is?  Hitty Moana asks.

I do believe our little Sara Cole Resin boy has arrived.  Hitty Patience explains to Hitty Moana.  I didn't realise though that he would be all in bits, the poor boy.  I wonder how we are going to join him together?

It looks like our person has two Hitty people to attend to now, doesn't it?  Hitty Moana replies.
