This is a small little plaque that survived from my "country" decorating. I have always loved it because the heart on the house is a separate hanging heart. Many a move that heart was taped to the back, so it wouldn't get lost!
When I was a little girl, I wanted a boy doll. I think it was really a desire for a brother, which I did not have. This is my doll. He is wearing an outfit my Aunt Esther made for him. She is quite the seamstress. It is the only outfit I have for him now.
Here he is, wearing my husband's baby hat! It is ok to squeal...I do it all the time!

Little Nippon dish purchased at estate sale...$5.00. I don't know if that was good or not, but I thought it was so cute.

Love the card that hangs on your wall with all the names on it. And the doll? Absolutely adorable. The antique dish is awesome too.
My Show N Tell is Disney today. Come by if you can find time. Happy Friday.
Squeall! Your husband's baby hat! How CUTE!
What a fun show and tell! I love your baby and the sweet outfit that your aunt made for him. So gladd that I stopped by to visit.
Enjoy your day!

You sound like my kind of person. A little of this and a little of that. The little hat, ahhh! I too got another little dish. I will have to share when I get home tonight. My mom had an old watch in a display like that. I think she gave it to my brother a few months ago. Thanks for sharing.
I love your baby boy doll and the story behind it. Also love the suit your aunt made for him and he does look adorable in your husband's baby hat.
Have a great weekend.
What sweet items. Love the baby doll.

I love the doll! My favorite doll had to be made by the same manufacturer because it looks so similar! I named her Gina Marie and later named my 3rd beautiful daughter by the same name...
Enjoyed looking at your treasures today. THanks for sharing.
Everything is so sweet. I especially like the little boy doll and the wonderful note card.
Thanks for stopping by my kitchen table to visit, too!
God bless,

Cute collection of things! I love hubby's hat. I've never seen that doll before, how precious!
I had a card like that with the names of God and I'll have to look for it and see if it is still here somewhere. Have a great weekend.
I enjoyed looking at all your treasured items.
Loved seeing your goodies, Ceekay!

Those are such lovely "this N that's"! I did squeal when I saw that doll in your husband's hat! Tooooooo cute! Love the framed card with God's names on it. I do think you got a bargain on your pretty little dish. laurie
I loved your "this and that" post. It was fun seeing some of your treasures!
What wonderful treasures! I love your boy doll....and his hat! Too cute.
Blessings,

I love the little heart plaque too. My mom had something similar and always hung the right number of hearts for the number of people living in the house. It was a fun tradition.
hi Cheekay,thank you for checking out the patio! So far we are really enjoying it. Love the note card, how beautiful. Have a great weekend! Kristen
I enjoyed seeing your treasures today, your little house plaque is s pretty and the little nippon dish, your look-a-like brother doll is so cute too especially with hubbies baby hat, happy weekend, Kathy.
Hi Ceekay, Love all your little treasures! The doll is precious! And I love the Nippon piece! You did good for $5 bucks! :)
Hope this comments finds you doing well! Prayers go out to you! ~hugs, Rhonda :)
Interesting this and that stuff. A boy doll for a brother. Why didn't I think of that? I was always begging my mom for a brother or sister when I was growing up. I never got one. I had lots of dolls though. Guess I just didn't have enough imagination. lol
Hugs,

The dish is very pretty! I love the doll, he reminds me of the one I have, except the hair is slick, I got her when I was two, and lot of fingers missing and the eyes are not in great shape, my other doll I gave a hair cut, bad! I threw her away, my older sister saved her for me and gave her to me after I got married. I treasure my doll, for they were the only ones I ever got. I from a large family. After 10 years no more Christmas. I loved the heart too. I have thing still around from my country crafty days. Hope you had a great weekend. I had family here all day, for a Birthday party of one of my grandson. Love Gloria's idea of wreath of the day. Hope you feel better! Oh, I forgot about the pocket watch holder! I do love love it! I have never seen one. I bought my Hubby a pocket watch, back in the 1978 or 79. I wish I would find a holder, it sits in a drawer! I went to a huge neighborhood yard sale, blocks and blocks at each home. Its held once a year, I had so much fun! Very tired! Still! I bought a whole truck load, really I did!
love the story about your doll, and your dish and other items are so lovely, thanks for sharing
hugs

Love all your odds and ends. The doll and story are wonderful - the hat is the cherry on top! So cute and precious that it was Hubby's. Love that Nippon dish - I'd pay $5 for it - well , you know that about me! As always, a cute post, C!
love you...Kathy
