So we went to toys-r-us and I let them pick out new dolls! Let me make this very clear though--they are NOT "baby" dolls. Raya gets very upset if I forget and say something about her "baby"...because these are "big girls" and they are the big sisters for the babies at our house (following me? haha).
Raya picked out a big girl with a ponytail and pink dress....Brielle picked out a big girl with long hair and a star outfit.
Then the naming saga began.
Raya first named hers Fancy....which I thought was cute. She's really into Fancy Nancy books right now. After I really grew to like Fancy, Raya changed it up and named her Flower. Then shortly after switched to Bow. Finally deciding that Flower-Bow was her official name. :-)
Brielle simply named hers Star. Thank God.
Flower-Bow and Star ate lunch with us at Panera (each had her own seat of course!) and then Flower-Bow came with us to Walmart as well (Poor Star had to be left in the car after Brielle chucked her to the ground in the parking lot while having a tantrum about something pointless --Star is not to happy about being owned by a moody 2 year old :-)
Since Friday Flower-Bow has pretty much gone everywhere with us. Poor Star hasn't been able to overtake Brielle's monkey in status, so she is not as well traveled!
While Brielle took her afternoon nap on Friday Raya hung out with the big girls...Star was happy to be better taken care of for awhile!

Ah, I love baby dolls :) One of my daycare girls had me swaddle one of her babies, and I said I'd do it like a burrito, so she went around and called her "Baby Burrito" for the rest of the day! :)
