I can't wait to buy baby dolls for our baby girl that is due at the end of this month and yes, all my children and grandbabies live in Nasvhille, I'd say we'd meet up but you know it is to be jealous of their time and want them all to yourself. I sure do! I haven't seen mine since Christmas and my heart aching for them. I say hurry up little one so we can come to Nashville. We<br />We have a girl that makes dolls here that look exactly like their brothers and sister. It is awesome. I'll have to share that one day.

I felt like I had seen every baby doll they ever made after I spent days researching...lol! This one doesn't have the powder smell but I was mostly looking for a cuddly body and realistic looking face...one with eyes not too wide open. Some of the dolls faces are quite scary actually! I may have to think about that idea of getting myself one....

I have 4 sons all grown...so I never got to buy girl stuff for all of those years. The Berringer babies have a little baby powder scent to their vinyl. I have a couple of dolls with this sweet face. They are so much fun to dress in baby clothes. Makes me want to PLAY! What fun you'll have with your granddaughter....and of course you need your very own, too!

But my little secret is that I have a doll very similar to yours--yes, mine. And yes she has clothes from GW. I dress her for the seasons and the children that visit my house love to play with her. But she's my baby doll, complete with a name. I have to dress her in white tights if she's to wear a dress because of that leg and arm problem and no short sleeves. :-) My excuse for having her is that I was a baby nurse for 25 years and miss those babies. Debby maybe you should get one for yourself! :-)podsohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14880888514207597761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869212964119628808.post-44717749244925638402014-03-05T08:12:34.383-08:002014-03-05T08:12:34.383-08:00Thanks for stopping by, Jill...I can't wait to...Thanks for stopping by, Jill...I can't wait to give it to her :)Debby Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02499542865677173703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869212964119628808.post-881078695003362002014-03-05T06:29:58.896-08:002014-03-05T06:29:58.896-08:00Love, LOVE the new baby doll smell too!
