Oh, Karen, you're such a tease! About the sitting around, but also about the weather! Though, it's pretty warm here today, it's 52, which is warm for Michigan in January.

Yes, Rachel, that's a regular heat wave there!

Ok Karen it's 4.30 pm central time - any chance of our swap partners coming through before I go to work in about an hour and a half lol

That's actually Eastern time!

oh lol so what time is it central time?

Take away an hour, so it's 3:47 there. Mountain is 2:47, and Pacific is 1:47. If I remembering right!

The way I remember it is because the tv shows always say things like 8/7 Central!

Thank you Rachel and Becky. At least we know that the deadline has passed and we'll have our swap partners info soon

Now the FUN begins!

All emails have been sent. From now on, if you have a question or need to answer a question I asked you, do so in email only, please!


Also, please reply to the email you just were sent so I know you got it.

Karen!

I'm so excited, cannot wait to get home from work and start ordering lol

Replied to your email

Jack arrived at his new home, so I'm hoping soon PayPal will release my money so I can buy my swap kit. I think I know what I'm getting, this is too fun!

whooooooo hoooooooo!!~ I've been so busy and excited today at the same time LOL. I have been staying busy taking pictures all day with my new baby Emma....with the Emily I just made of my youngest daughter. I will share pics...but only after.....I find out who my swap partner is hahahahaha!!~

That should have no bearing on the swap because really, you should not paint a kit before knowing their preferences. Unless you are just trying to tease us about showing us your new pictures?

Karen, I think she just meant she'd share the pictures with us, but she wanted to check the swap email before she took the time to post pictures. One has nothing to do with the other, I think.

wow sherrie. maybe we REALLY are twins separated at birth, thats my BIGGEST problem. they are all so dang cute i wanna keep em ALL

lol....yep miss Karen is just trying to get me to give away my whole stach of kits lol...Sent a pic to her of heads and she was trying to peek in my boxe's lol i put all my baby's kits in my clear box's and I had them all marked so I can find the kit I want and i..... But all the lable fell off and I now have to go back and see what kit is in what box again ... so another day of kit orginizing lol..... Sherrie

Maybe you should write the info on an index card, color coded for size, such as 20' pink or green for preemies, pink for newborn etc. Write the info on the cards then push them ti the very front of the clear boxes so that the names show thru. Use tape to cover the backs of the index cards and hold them close the the box to seen better. That way no Ink ever gets to the baby but the labels wont fall off either. How ever you ise the color code system, this would Identify easily at glance. Just a suggestion. Have a wonderful day'

Good Idea!

Now that is an awesome idea lol.... I was putting a stickie on the front of the box but they keep falling off lol.... I will use this idea .. thank you very much ... Sherrie

I'm going to have to call PayPal. They still haven't released my money and I need it to buy my swap partner's kit. I know just what kit to get, and where...I just need the money!

Has the mom received baby? I know when it was done to me I had to call them and give them the confirmation number to show baby was delivered. Unless they've decided to give you a hard time, then they make you wait 3 days and show delivery confirmation. Once you've sold and have a good record with them and no probs with ebay they will release the money right away.

But then again, who knows. If you don't sell often enough for them, they do it all over again.

Yep, mom received the baby, she left me feedback and an email. She even tried to commission me for two custom dolls (until an emergency came up and she needed the money for that). I called PayPal and they can't track the tracking number I have. He told me I needed to call USPS. When I call them, I get an automated system and get no where. I really hate this. The guy said something like "You as our customer are the most important thing to us so we're on top of this." I felt like shouting "NO I AM NOT! THE BUYER IS MOST IMPORTANT, YOU DON'T GIVE TWO HOOTS ABOUT THE SELLER! THIS IS VERY INCONVENIENT FOR ME." I hate this pollicy.

I sure hope by the time my money IS released the kit I want for my swap partner is still available at the price it's at right now.

I thought talking about kits for our swap partners was on topic?

Very happy to say my kit just arrived for my swap partner's Mother's Day Baby! Won't be painting it in this heat though lol

Will start when the air con is working again

I hope it gets fixed for you soon, and/or it isn't so hot for you. It's no fun working the oven when it's so hot.

Karen I know this is off the topic but i just had to say I love your siggy. Now I will be good. I am still waiting on my kit to be delivered

Hmmmm.....
Trying to decide what baby to reborn for my swap partner...

I think our lists should have included 10 top favs! Or even 20! I know I could come up with 20!
