Makayla's Baby Doll

Makayla loves playing with her baby! One of her favorite things to do is put the baby to bed! She'll put the baby on it's pillow and cover it with the blanket (that Grandma made her) and then she'll pat the baby to put it to sleep. She's also very particular about the blanket being straight...sometimes it takes several attempts to get it "just right"! :) The other night she wanted to lay next to her baby and have her blanket on her. I was quick enough to actually get a photo of it!

A few nights ago as I was getting Makayla's dinner ready, I went to put her in her high chair. As I pulled the chair away from the table, her baby scared the heck out of me! For a second, I thought there was a real baby in her high chair! I guess she had put the baby there either the night before or that morning! :)

Today, I was going through my newborn clothes and Makayla grabbed a sleeper with a coordinating bib and ran off to find her baby! After I helped her get the baby dressed, Makayla ran off and get her own pajamas and a bib so that she was dressed like her baby!

I have some more toys stashed away for Makayla's baby...we're saving them for when the real baby arrives!

That's really cute! Makayla's baby blanket is the same material I bought to make a cover for the changing table pad in Baby Joas's room :)

Hi LIz - Makayla is just adorable! I cannot wait to hear how she loves up on her new baby brother or sister. I think it will be a boy. Just a little tidbit...Natalie got a Bitty Baby from her Grandma a year ago (American Girl Doll, but the baby kind). Anyways, I highly recco it. It is kinda expensive, however, they have great clothes and asecessories. I think it will last a long time. Big sister needs a special gift when brother or sister arrives (-: Take care!
