Quick, are you still online?
My daughter has one of these, Baby Born, by Zapf Creations. I happened to get an email from etoys today, incuding this doll at an amazing price. $7.99, normally a $40 doll! Says "today only."

This doll is completely washable, the even sell swimsuits for it on the Zapf website. That's why we got it. It life-size and completely waterproof. Very popular doll for 3-5 y/o girls. It can be fed and uses a potty (or diapers), but it's the texture that DD wanted it for, b/c she could take it in the bathtub or pool. No batteries or anything technical. And she did bath it every night for a while, still looks brand new.

This is Ariel from The Little Mermaid. She is a bath toy that changes color with change in temp. This price says $30.00 but I paid around $12.00 at Target. They had 4 dolls, all some sort of Disney Princess. My daughter loves it :) Christy

Thanks everyone! I appreciate your comments! Yes, she is a special baby doll to me...she's not real old...probably about 20 yrs....my Mom & Dad bought "twins" when they vacationed near Branson, MO.,...they added to their doll collection from down that way! My sis & I each inherited a "twin" from my Mom. I love her sweet baby face, too! Thank you for the high chair comments, also! I say, "go for it"...they're adaptable for many things!...and useful for holiday decor!!! (check those TS's, GS' & GW!) Thanks, purplemoon, you brought some tears to my eyes with your comment about my grandma...here's a pic I think I shared with you on the GJ site...she was a special lady & I continue to try to fill her shoes.

Thank You Jeanne, Jane, Punk and Karen. This little Tea Set is so adorable I couldn't resist. I know Mr. and Mrs. Bunny are looking forward seeing the girls at the Tea Party! I don't know why I don't notice mistakes before I post. Jeanne, tell Dollbaby I know her name isn't Baby doll. I know little girls want to be called by their right names. Punk, TJ looks so sweet in her pink outfit. Tell her I said thank you for adding my name tothe invitation. Thanks again. Nana

"I'm a little anal when it comes to hygiene so I would much prefer not to bath my baby in the same place I had just washed a chicken or where dirty dishes were sitting. " I hate to break it to you, but your baby is going to be the dirtiest thing in your house. :) Also, my daughter (now 19 months) still hates any kind of sprayer. A simple cup worked much better. The little plastic tub was a good investment and made baths easy for a couple months. By the time she learned to sit up though, she much preferred to be in the tub.

Catching up on some older posts and first of all Congrats Candy on your precious new granddaughter :) Her 'big brother' looks so very happy and proud of his little sister - secondly I must admit I was sure that was a picture Dylan's mother since I have never seen a picture of you before - you are way too young looking to have two grand children. It is so nice to have a face to put to an online name - again congrats and most of all enjoy :) ..... Lynne
