♥ Little Panda ♥

Yay, exciting news.. my parents got a holiday home on a roleplay sim. We now have our land with our house, the boat house, my mummy's work building (secret as she's not opened yet) and then we have my daddy's land with tigers, games, krafties area and my grandparents house.. and then we have our new home on this roleplay sim, a short walk from my Uncle Rich's house. 

My Uncle Rich (mummy's brother) is epic, even if he did have a mini freak out when I when he came home to a special drawing on his wall I did, lego all over the floor and a flooded bathroom. He made me clear it all up! How mean! I drew him a pretty picture and he made me scrub it off.. the lego everywhere was an accident, so was the bathroom flooding.. but.. nooooooooo I still had to clean it up while my Uncle, mummy and daddy all watched. Did they help? Nope! 

Oh, remember I said we were gonna trial with a little boy? Well, my mummy got a message from him and he said real life was too busy right now so he was sorry but he couldn't do it. Shame.. but the first teenager we had (that disappeared randomly and we just figured she didn't wanna trial with us) has come back and is trialing with her.. computer issues had seen her offline for a bit, but now we're gonna try again.

My mummy got two new awesome cars too.. we had fun driving round with me in my Sweet Baby car seat. Both cars are bright pink, which my daddy had a grumble at when he sat in it with us.. I think soon he might end up buying his own car and then there will be 3 in the driveway. 4 cars when Uncle Rich visits.. 5 or 6 if I put out my Sweet Baby Mini Coopers. I have one in red and one in pink. I think I might be a little bit spoilt having such an epic family, 3 sims we live on etc.. from rags to riches.. hopefully no more rags for this spoilt little Princess.

Anyway, That's So Kyoot had a moving sale.. so I rushed over there and picked up as much as my little arms could carry. This is "Little Panda" - I'm not wearing the hair bow, opted for a panda on my head instead.. y'know how it is. This is me posing in front of our epic new fish tank in our new holiday home using one of the new poses from .click.

♥ Oh My Panda! ♥

Today's outfit is from Buttons & Bows. Look at how cute the little tights are with the panda heads on the top. Kudos to the designer, I love this outfit.. it's just super cute. It all comes together so nicely! Kind of annoyed I didn't think of it first! Buttons & Bows is always reasonably priced too and for the price this is super awesome. 

Happy Birthday for yesterday to my forever Auntie Ashlynn. I hope you had an awesome day and got lots of awesome things! 

Yep, still addicted to Krafties.. got my highest level plant creature posing with me in this pic. Since I took this pic though, my mummy got him wings and a halo.. he finally got out of his Halloween garb.

♥ Like a Panda Cub ♥

This outfit I put together from a few different pieces.. I really like how it turned out and I even wore it for a few days, which is not like me! Like the title suggests, it reminds me of a Panda cub. Cute.

The Woodland Gatcha event is now open. I haven't been over yet, but I know what's there and I already know what gatchas I will hit when I do go. Lots of cuteness to be had, go check it out!

It's my mummy's real life birthday tomorrow.. so Happy Birthday, mummy! Hope you have an awesome day. ♥

♥ Snuggly Panda ♥

I haven't blogged That's So {Kyoot} in a little while. I almost forgot this outfit was in my inventory.. but it's so snuggly and cute looking.. plus, you know how much I love pandas. I often buy things I like when I see them and because I like to wear one outfit a day they tend to sit in my inventory waiting for their turn to be worn. Some people change multiple times a day (if I did this I'd never have any time for anything else and I'd be broke to boot) or other people wear the same outfit for weeks or months at a time! Daddy, I'm looking at you when I say that! Mummy and I just managed to get him to change his clothes after being in them since before Christmas.. I bet they were ripe! I think daddy gets annoyed at mummy and I always nitpicking, trying to get him to dress differently.. and tear him out of the outdated system clothes. There's really no excuse to not wear mesh if you have a mesh capable viewer.. there's plenty of decent free mesh clothing flooding the marketplace, either free or insanely cheap. I think the majority of men just are too lazy to change their clothing though. Mummy and I share the same love of shopping, I'm often told I'm a mini mummy. I think if I was blonde and had a skin tone more close to my mummy then it would be like the mini mummy looks wise too. 

Anyways, yesterday I had a day where I was anti-social. I didn't talk to anyone, nor care to. I was in a proper funk and just needed some me time.. I didn't even get online. I just stayed in bed, staring at the TV, watching sometimes and other times just staring at it while I was deep in thought. My thoughts can be very dark, so it was really hard not to listen to myself. I am my own worst enemy and critic. Today, however, I decided would be different. I had tons I needed to do around the house in real life.. as my recent funks had meant I'd not only neglected myself but my surroundings too. My house was looking as depressing as I've felt lately. I managed to pull myself out of bed earlier on, despite having hardly any sleep, have a bath and I even managed to get some things done. I still have a few things on my list to do, but it's definitely looking better. I need some funk be gone spray or something for those dark times. ♥

♥ Still Love Pandas ♥

Yep, it might be a New Year.. but that doesn't mean my love of cute fuzzy pandas has disappeared. 

I thought this post would be a kind of homage to the fact that it hasn't gone away while showing off these adorable panda overalls from Soken Kids. I just love them. Pair them with your favorite shoes (in my case Baby Swag shoes) for a playful yet adorable look. I loved playing in the garden wearing them.

Big news.. my parents are on trial with an older sister for me.. she's from the UK too! I hope it goes well and we get on (I don't usually get on with siblings.. find that there ends up being a lot of competition, possibly on my part as I'm generally a competitive person) I also find it tough going from having all attention on me to then suddenly having the attention divided.. so, we'll see how it goes. 

I really do want to give it a shot because I know my parents really want another kid.. and it's not fair for me to hold them back just because I'm a brat who finds it hard to get on with other kids. I agreed to it with a few conditions of course, the major one being that they had to be older than me. The same age or younger would send me into competition mode. I'd be fighting to be the favorite. I think it helps a little because she's not a ToddleeDoo avatar like I am.. so already I feel a lot less threatened. I know, I know, I'm ridiculous.. but hey, at least I'm aware I am!

♥ Pandas Rock ♥

I'm sorry I've not blogged in a few days. I've been on trial with yet another family.. but this time I'm pretty sure it's a really good fit and will work out. I don't think they'll ditch me either (like my last two families), since their current daughter has been with them for 4 years. We have a really large extended family and I'm feeling really at home. I can't believe how well they're treating my brother and I.. I feel like I won the lottery of families. We've had story time every day, at least one book a day too. That's so awesome. They treat us like proper kids too. I dunno, it's hard to explain.. but I've never had it as good with any family before. I feel really loved and accepted in this family.. like I belong.

I haven't had the best luck with families over the years, most have split up and not wanted kids anymore, left SL or ditched me. The last one just up and left SL and didn't even have the decency to tell me herself that she wasn't coming back.. I had to find out on Skype from her "boyfriend" - To be honest I'm not sure I buy that it was her boyfriend that told me she's not coming back and it's none of my business as to why. I think it was probably her and it was just easier on her to pretend to be someone else so she could be heartless easier. The family before that ditched me and wouldn't let me back into the family unless I agreed to go to hospital in real life (Yes, I'm sick and I have a lot of issues.. but who doesn't have issues?!) Nobody is perfect! Plus, I was on a waiting list to receive help anyway (which I'm getting now, you'll be pleased to know.. and ironically started to get the help after they wouldn't let me back into the family.) My new family are not judgemental at all and have been so nice about everything.. my daddy couldn't believe people could treat me like that. Since he said that, I think I tend to agree. I knew it was crappy, but to have an outsiders perspective of someone who didn't even know me or know the people involved and still come to the same conclusion I did was an eye opener. I was such a mess over that particular family that I nearly ended my real life.. and looking back on it now, it was so silly to even contemplate doing that over them.. or over anyone really. I was so low; it was awful feeling that way. My new family actually care about me and don't interfere or tell me what I should do with my real life, they're being a supportive SL family and as much as they can advise me.. they'd never tell me what to do. They'd never judge me. I think they're so great and I hope I continue to feel this way about them for a long time.. and I hope they feel the same about my brother and I. 

In other news the Halloween Heist Hunt is now underway.. and if you haven't checked it out yet you should. It is truly epic. I'm really impressed with the hunt (I'm not just saying that because my store is involved either) Bit did a really amazing job with making it really interactive and fun. I won't tell you what you have to do as I don't want to spoil it for those of you who haven't done it.. but I urge you to. It really was fun and I was sad when my brother and I completed it. Also please donate on your way out if you enjoyed it like we did.. a lot of hard work went into that hunt and it was much appreciated. I really hope she does more hunts like that because it was new and different - yet worked flawlessly. If you don't know where to start, head on over to Cute Bytes (Hullaballoo Sim) and go grab your HUD and instructions. Take some friends with you.. it's something that you can all help each other with.. and these things are always more fun with friends.

A new round of Limited 50 is starting tomorrow I believe, or today I guess depending on your location. Pretty exciting! 

As you all know I absolutely adore pandas, so when I saw Buttons and Bows had a panda outfit out I had to have it. It's really nicely done and even comes with bamboo for your mouth to give it that extra bit of panda awesomeness. Great job, Buttons and Bows! I decided to go find a sim with bamboo to be my backdrop for this picture.. always find it good fun to go exploring new places too.

♥ New Store - Safari Kids ♥

When the owner of the new store "Safari Kids" approached me to see if I'd be interested in blogging any of her outfits.. I jumped at the chance.  They are super cute! There's a variety of different animals to choose from.. I have four different ones to show you today, but there are many more, one of them I'm going to show is even a free group gift! So go down to Safari Kids and grab your free Spotted Rabbit Pajamas and check out the store while you're there. The owner is so lovely too, be sure to say hi. Or you can check Safari Kids out on the Marketplace.

We're going to start off with the Skunk Pajamas, they're adorable.. and the detail on the tail is amazing. Underneath the tail there are little flexi bits that sway and move with you. I love it and it suits me down to the ground since I'm a gassy one. Although they're sold as pajamas, I don't intend on sleeping in mine.. they're far too cute not to show off and just wear during the day. I wore these ones all day today and received so many compliments on how awesome they are. I took two pictures in two different hairs, because I couldn't decide which looked better (You know what I'm like). It's hard to find good hood hair and a lot of the hair I own doesn't seem to allow me to mod it to fix it, so excuse any random poking out of the hood.If anyone knows of any good hood hair, let me know! While taking these pics I even had a random IM from someone to tell me what a cute skunk in the forest I made. Totally made my day as it was so unexpected.

Credits at the very bottom of the post. This one is gonna be a long one, folks!

Next up we have the Tiger Pajamas, which again, are super adorable. The detail on the PJs is superb. I love the highlighting and how the stripes are done, it looks very awesome. Again, I had the hair dilemma.. so here's two in different hairs:

Next up is the Rabbit pajamas (free group gift at Safari Kids store) Go grab your set. The group is free to join too. Just look at how cute they are.. look at those ears! I didn't have the hair dilemma with this one, the black one just didn't look right.. but I just took two pictures anyway.

 

Saved my fav animal for last. The super cute and cuddly panda pajamas.

♥ Open Arms Family Clinic ♥

So, as promised in my last post I said I'd talk about the awesome new clinic we went to.It's only been open a week and doing really well so far and hopefully that continues!

The prices are really reasonable and Dr Simmons is super friendly and excellent at RPing out the various medical scenarios. Very thorough too. Mummy and I were very impressed with the clinic..  

We had our shots done (Pooterbilt) and told us to come back every week to get another shot, because we're behind on our vaccinations. Mummy held my hand while I had mine done. I had two shots, the second one hurt more than the first for some reason. 

Dr Simmons weighed me too, I'm apparently 27 lbs. I'm not sure if that's good or bad.. but it sounds a nice number and nobody said it was bad. My temperature was fine too. I even got a panda sticker and a grape sucker from the waiting room.

The clinic offers pediatrics, prenatal, and family planning.. work with all the conception HUDs, including the Pooterbilt and the Pooterbilt Pediatric HUD. Dr Simmons will also see you if you don't have a HUD and just wanna RP it. I took some pictures of the experience below the price list.

♥ Zoo World ♥

Today mummy and I decided to visit the zoo, we had some time to kill while we were waiting to visit a new clinic that's opened up (I'll blog that trip next)

It was a big zoo and we had lots of ground to cover! Mummy wasn't sure quite which way we should go.. but I told her to lead the way because I couldn't decide either. We saw the monkeys first! They were awesome.. one was hopping all around. One even was sat on the bench, so me sat on it's lap. Mummy sat down next to me too, but sadly she moved as I snapped a pic. 

Just monkey-ing around.. lol

Next.. naturally mummy knew to make a bee line for the panda enclosure. I was right at home and even tried to sneak a baby panda out in my bag! Only kidding.. it's just a cute panda bag that my Unkie Nyo got for me. Thank you, Unkie Nyo.

"Another panda for my collection.. teehee.."

As we walked around the zoo we found ourselves in the prehistoric section.. I'm fairly certain most zoos don't have this and I was pretty excited when we ran into Scrat from Ice Age. I was like mummy we have to pose with him! I asked mummy to stand next to him so I could take a pic of us looking really awesome with him.. so mummy crouched down for me. Luckily his nut is nearby, so we didn't have to go and look for it..

Scrat from Ice Age! How awesome!

Overall it's a nice zoo, but the enclosures are all open which is a little weird.. and they put animals that you wouldn't really mix together for real. So if you're looking for a zoo that's very realistic, this is definitely not it.. if you just want a giggle and a day out then this will work for you. If you're interested just look up Zoo World on Le Dome Sim.

♥ Hopping Mad ♥

Well, I went to see the doctor for my checkup and all was well. But since my trip to the doctors, I've gotten sick.. so hopefully I'll be feeling better soon.

Before I started to feel ill though I had a blast jumping around on my new panda hopper that my Uncle Nyo got me! It's so awesome. I jumped all around my room on it.. good thing my room is huge or I'd of had to go outside. 

The panda hopper comes with two different types (luckily you get both), one for toddleedoo and one for regular kids. I'm using the toddleedoo one. It took a little positioning, but not much. You can't really see my hands in these pics, but I am actually holding it.. not that you can tell.

The outfit is from Baby Pie (yes, I blog Baby Pie a lot.. but for a good reason, I love her stuff!) This outfit can be worn a few different ways, but I'm wearing it in the one I think looks the cutest.. but there are optional ways to wear it. It came with sunglasses, which were cute.. but unfortunately they messed with my eyelashes too much and I'm a sucker for my lashes.. without them I just look weird!

Bouncing around my room

Can't stop me.. wee!
