Athena's new doll

I just wanted to show you this cute doll I got from kmart for $10... she says a few cheers and comes in a blue outfit also. Unfortunately Athena is not a big fan of the doll because she never likes dolls, but Kee did play with it!

I am so glad they have ethnic dolls now. I remember wishing that I had a black doll when I was growing up.

Cute doll.

Have you found any boy dolls that you like? I don't know if Kee has dolls. David has one, but it's a little girl doll. I want to get him a boy doll for Christmas or his birthday (which are about 2 weeks apart). I'm looking for one that looks realistic, but is cuddly and easy to carry around.

Ty got a baby doll for Christmas last year. I wouldn't say it was a girl...it's one of the water baby dolls that you fill, and it's clothes are pretty neutral. I call it a her though He LOVES (LOVES!) Baby. He puts baby in Mattys swing, feeds baby when I feed Matty, and will hug baby, pat her back and scratch her head (I do that to him at night when he's tired)...he also loves and plays with the funnel that she came with to fill her with water (which I haven't done) and plays with that almost everyday!

If you go to this page, we have the AA doll dressed in yellow. I want one of the newborn ones for him next...they are so cute.

Cute doll! A&B both have AA Baby Alive dolls that came with bottles. One closes its eyes when it takes the bottle, the other burps after drinking. They are pretty cute.

aclee, those are adorable! I may have to get one.
I'm off to google "baby alive".
Withay, they didn't used to have a lot back in the day. I did have a black sasha doll when I was about 8 years old and it was the cutest thing. Now sashas are cost prohibitive or Athena and Kee would have them!

Oakshannon, I haven't found a good boy doll yet!
I am still looking. Kee likes dolls while Athena just looks at them for a second and throws them down.
Let me know if you find a good one for David!

I will! I've been looking but haven't quite found the right thing yet.
