Gwen's Friends

When we first moved to FVille and I went back to work, Gwen had some trouble dealing with the move and she was misbehaving. We started reading her stories about pretend dolls - dolls being nice to their sisters, etc. Lance let Gwen name the dolls, etc. And this is how Sniffers was born... Gwen wanted to read a story about a doll dog. Lance asked what the doll dogs name was and Gwen replied, "Sniffers". So Lance made up a story called "Sniffers Learns to Bark" about a doll dog Sniffers who didn't know how to bark until his friend Gwennie taught him how. Then Gwen created Pheobe to be friends with Sniffers. Pheobe is also a doll dog. Next came Snoogles McDoogles, who is a pretend doll (not a doll dog). Snoogles McDoogles lives in the butterfly that hangs from the ceiling above Gwen's bed. Then out of the blue one day in the car, Gwen announced that Sniffers, Pheobe and Snoogles McDoogles had some new friends.... Cheese and Peas. Cheese is a girl, and she is 4, while Peas is a boy and he is only 2.

Sniffers, Pheobe, Snoogles McDoogles, Cheese and Peas have had all sorts of fun adventures together. They go with us everywhere. Each night we "buy" a new book about them, and Gwen gets to name it. Normally it is something like "Sniffers 1st Day at Gymnastics" or "Pheobe Can't Go to the Park Because She is Sick" or something like that. We crack up. It is so funny...

  1. It is lovely to read about Snoogles and the gang. I miss them. But I must say that you forgot about Lulu and her tree house. Gwen also had me tell her pretend stories about Sniffers going to the park with the whole family. I love and miss the girls!
