WOW!

Hi there!

First of all, cautious congratulations to you!

Second, don't worry too much about hair until she has some! LOL Please go out and purchase the book "It's All Good Hair." You can find it online at http://www.bamm.com

Also, please purchase the book in my signature line below.

As for the toys, I used to be weird about only buying dolls with skin tones like Bella's, but now her favorite doll is White. Oh well. She will have a plethora of "babies" to choose from and we shouldn't get too hung up on all that.

There are some great groups you can join that address many issues pertaining to being an interracial family, hair care, transracial adoption, etc. Just PM me!

Blessings!

Sarah
