construction and updates!!!!!!

Hi Everybody,
This is Sophia and Emma.  I know another post actually by us:)

Here is the construction.  Don't mind Yoko, it is her room that is getting WALLS finally.  This way her stuffies won't fall on to the floor or into the bathroom (next door to her room).  Our mom's sewing teacher has a new awesome studio space and they used coroplast to make the walls so that there was privacy (it isn't see through) but light can still get through (they are using a very pale almost colorless kind of white).  The sewer teacher gave our mom some small pieces of red left over from a project so that we could experiment with it. If you don't know what we're talking about, it's like corrugated cardboard except made out of plastic

And the other wall is up now too.

Here's what the room looks like with both beds and all the other furnishings and stuff back in it.

And for the update:
Mum decided not to order Alexis from Via E just now because she found out yesterday that Molly is going to be archived/retired by AG :(
Because Molly looks so much much like our mum's grandma, who was just a year older than Molly in Happy Birthday Molly, our mum has wanted to get Molly for a long time.

Here is a collage of a photo of our mum's grandma from 1944 and a photo of Molly for comparison.  The photo on the left isn't the greatest because the glass and old tape need replacing.  The photo of Molly is one that we found on the internet and not one that we took.
So what do you think?  Don't you think that not having bangs that our mum's grandma looks a lot like Molly?  We think that she will be joining us soon (we're going to order some items from her collection too, we'll do a photo shoot of them when that order arrives).

So is there a Molly doll at any of your houses?  Any suggestions or recommendations about Molly?

That's it for now.
Sophia and Emma :) :)

[ETA:  Our mum was kind of over enthusiastic  and overwhelmed.  After writing this post we sat down and reviewed our recent AG purchases and other doll related expenses and decided that even though Molly is going to be retired, that we just can't get her at the moment.  Down the road we can look for her somewhere like ebay.  We might get Alexis after all and just the minis of Molly and Emily.  Funny enough before our mum ever got her first full sized AG doll she wanted mini Emily:).   just wanted to let our readers know all of this.]
