Who here remembers Baby Alive? I had one when I was young. In fact, my mother thought the Bee Gee’s were singing about Baby Alive in their song, “Staying Alive.” Mom’s are funny.
So, a couple of months ago my daughters, along with their neighbor friend, decided they wanted Baby Alive dolls. (Mind you, my girls haven’t played with dolls EVER. Dolls tend to sit in the bottom of the basket, covered with stuffed dogs, bears and armadillos.) They all gathered their Target gift cards and extra cash and begged for me to take them for their new toys. Apparently I didn’t have my head screwed on quite right, because I said, “Okay” — something typically unheard of in my home.
The Baby Alive dolls arrived in my home and for two straight days I heard fake baby crying and watched as the Baby Alive “peed” everywhere — into the diaper as well as all over the girls. (I had to make the rule of not “feeding” the doll anything other than water. Can you imagine????)
Long story short, I ran across this picture I took on Easter, while all the girls ate their way through their Easter baskets. It makes me laugh every time I see it.
Check out the Ace bandage on the baby in the middle. Kids are too funny.
Just thought I’d share a laugh. Enjoy!
