So Far, This Is What We've Purchased for Our Baby Girl

One of the first nights after we found out this tiny one is a girl-child, I typed "first doll" into Ebay's search bar and started browsing.  When I saw this, I impulsively asked Jeff if we could get it.   He kindly said yes.  ;-)
Can you see what's embroidered on the front?
It says "my first doll," but really, it's more like a snuggly, cuddly, stuffed toy with a rattle inside--not a "real" doll with clothes that can be changed and accessories that can be added.  Ah, well, there's plenty of time for that later.  :)

For now, I think this bit of pink sweetness is the perfect thing for our daughter.  And it's the only thing we've bought for her...so far...  ;-)

  1. Hannah had a doll like that, and it was a huge hit with her. She chewed the pigtails! I know your daughter will love it (and so will you!).

  3. You are going to have the best time gathering things for a girl. Boys don't seem to have as much to choose from.

  8. That looks the first doll I got for my first daughter. Almost exactly. I came over from HoTC to say congratulations on the news of your precious new daughter. I've got three boys and three girls and I love them all! What a joy to be a mother. God's peace to you today.
