Faith's 1st doll!

On Friday, we spent the afternoon with some of Faith's friends. Her friend, Bailey, has a special doll named "Baby Faith". She was kind enough to let Faith play with her. I've never seen Faith take to a toy so much. She held on to "Baby Faith" the rest of the time we were at Bailey's house. Bailey's Mommy, Mrs. Emille, said Faith could take her home with us for a couple of days. Bailey reluctantly but graciously agreed. We found a sweet little shirt that we thought appropriate for "Baby Faith" to wear (see pic). Faith continued to hold onto "Baby Faith" the whole way home. I thought it was the sweetest thing ever. Murray agreed and we decided to make a run to Toys 'R 'Us so Faith could pick out a doll of her own. I just love watching her hold her doll. She "lights up" when she sees her. It's the cutest thing ever!!!
This is how Faith holds her baby dolls...both hands on the doll's head. She's happy as can be!

Your little girl is getting so big. Next to that baby she looks like a smal adult. OK maybe, not that big, but she has sure grown. I hope her and Libby are still the best of buddies. What a fun story!

Thanks for sharing Faith's first baby doll story. It reminded me of my daughter's first doll and I enjoyed emailing her all about her beloved, "blue baby". Her Mimi bought her when she stopped by the drug store after work to get something and could not resist buying her granddaughter, who was visiting from Texas, a doll. I thought she was way too young (9 months old) for a doll, but Grandma knew best! We sure miss Mimi!

Hey--Faith is SOOOOO cute. Glad she went to Toys R Us. Speaking as an employee of Toys R Us I'm glad Faith joined the ranks of going to the biggest toy store there is..Gee Wiz!

Sign her up for the birthday club! She gets a crown and baloon on her birthday!
