Miley

28/Dec/2013 – Miley

The kids were just itching to go spend their gift cards at the Toy Store. We packed them in for a short outing yesterday where they all chose something. Except for Miley. She went to the store wanting one thing: Baby Alive. You know, the one that eats, pees, and poops type of doll. We soon realized they were all sold out of the one she wanted. She was so upset she started to cry and we could not sell her on any other toy or doll. She decided she was saving the gift card for the baby she really wanted. We were quite impressed. We told her it would be at least a few days, but when she got home she cleared the top bunk of her baby bunk beds to get ready.

While we were out today, in a different area of the city, I hit up a different toy store and found the doll she was waiting so patiently for. She wasn’t expecting it at all. We used the gift card from Uncle Luc and Brit to buy it. I hid it in the trunk and went on with our afternoon. Once Belle was settled in to bed I surprised her with the doll. She was so excited and kept saying “I’m not sad anymore, I love her.”

So we tested it out. Miley fed it, and played, and Mommy had to change the first diaper! Now Miley knows how to do it with a bit of practice. She was kissing the doll, playing with her and taking care of her. It was SO adorable we couldn’t believe how much she was into it. Mommy sneakily put the doll in off-mode and told her the baby was sleeping and it was time for Miley to sleep too. Worked perfectly because the baby’s eyes close when she lies down.

Watching Miley was so cute and fun. I can’t wait to see what she does with the doll tomorrow!
