I'll Make It Myself!

Since Simone was a littler girl, she had a dollhouse.  She didn't always play with it, but she liked it.  This Summer, we couldn't have it in the bus because of our limited space.  Trips to the store only remind her of how wonderful it is to have a space for her dolls to roam - and the bigger the better!

This Winter, Simone and Max got some tiny koala dolls from Grandma and Grandpa.  One morning, Michael and I slept so late because Simone was busy constructing her own dollhouse!

This dollhouse is actually a boathouse.  When the inhabitants want to move to a different location, one of them gets into the "Driving Area" and tugs the whole works.  Swimmy, the green monster with orange shoes, was the first to get a swimming pool to which he accesses from the bathroom.  The other guys must have been jealous because Simone expanded and gave them their own pool.  

Do we have a little architect on our hands?!?!?
