I guess you have to have your posse around when you have breakfast. It makes it a whole lot more fun! Look - it’s like a party in the kitchen.
For your personal amusement, I’ll list out the “babies’” names from back to front. Some of you might recognize a few! Hana, Eskedar, Ava, Mihiret, Sylvie, Jessie, Jenny, and Jordanos.
It is interesting to note that in a three year old’s view colours and hairstyles have little to no significance in naming your “babies” after people you know… it’s more about the feeling you get from the doll and the feelings you have associated with the people. Now, can’t we learn something from three year olds?!
PS: All but the “twins” I got for a grand total of $5 from a second hand store. Pretty darn good buy, I say. [ed] Ooops, and a couple came from Grannie’s second hand store too. They’re not all shown!

That is such a cute photo!
Love the girls’ choice of names, too! Great buy at a second-hand store! Those dolls are EXPENSIVE brand new!

Feeling pretty special that one of the dolls was lucky enough to be named Sylvie!

I can’t wait to show this to Eskedar tomorrow! She’ll be thrilled!
She was just talking about your girls today.

I love your blog and was so happy to find it! Great photo of your girls and their “babies.” When my girls realized the boy dolls don’t have any “underpants” the way the girl dolls do, they made me sew some. Boy dolls with no underpants was too yucky to be endured.

Hi “Joyful Mom” -
a little shout out back - I saw the bandu knots on your blog and tried them out with my girls - they stay for at least 5 days and are neat and easy to do! Thanks!
