Baby Doll

There's a new baby in our house, and it's not baby brother. I'd like to introduce to you "Baby Doll".

She was named by her mommy, Gwendolyn. Baby Doll and Gwendolyn are rarely separated these days. She stays naked most of the time (babies need their diapers changed a lot so it's just easier.) Occasionally both mommy and daughter decide to bare it all together, which doesn't bother me one bit since Gwendolyn has the most squishable belly and ridiculously adorable long and lean legs that I wish I could say she gets from me.
It's important to strap Baby Doll in before going on a walk. Looks like they're all ready to take a spin!
She's a very good baby. She rarely cries, which is actually quite shocking since she is probably quite cold (ya know, being naked and all) and she occasionally gets dropped and stepped on and is often held by an arm or a leg. 

Baby Doll has a very calm and sweet temperament. She loves being rocked and sang to, both of which Gwendolyn is very good at.
Gwendolyn is a very organized mommy. She actually overpacks her diaper bag and is sure to take it everywhere, just in case. In the car. To Target. Downstairs. Upstairs. Church. Like any good mommy knows, you can't forget the diaper bag! In addition to the basics (diaper, wipes, two bottles, spoon, plate, food, ointment, etc.) she has extra socks and a small book in there as well. 
Gwendolyn takes very good care of her baby and is very hands on.
Well....................most of the time.
I'm sure we can all understand that sometimes mommies just.need.a.break

I don't blame her.
Needless to say, it's been an exciting couple of days since we brought Baby Doll home from Gwendolyn's daycare birthday party. And then she got a Minnie from Aunt Trishy and Uncle "Don" on Saturday so it's just been over the top fun around here. I mean, who doesn't absolutely love having a new baby in the house?!
