Invasion of the dolls




Yep, this holiday we were invaded by dolls! Disney dolls, crocheted dolls, fisher-price dolls - the cuteness is terrifying. Our favorite ones were the hand made dolls. L crocheted a Chu Totoro and a Sho Totoro for A-chan and they are so incredible! My mother crocheted her a Hello Kitty doll with changeable dress and ear decoration which is just too cool. A-chan was delighted with all of the above.

The Totoro dolls got to go on a trip to see M,F & E and she hugged them the entire time we were in the car (an hour each way). Hello Kitty got to go to the grocery store and ride on the big girl cart with A-chan who had to make sure that I remembered to belt Hello Kitty in tight. The Fisher-price castle-dwellers and the Disney princesses are enjoying life in the castle together (or alternatively on the windowsill where they can see the deer who come by every day.)
And don't forget the R2 figure that Santa left for her...he's always saving the princesses, the poor prince never gets a chance! Ketu had to deactivate the button that made R2 make sounds cause they scared A-chan (why did they have to put the screaming on there?!). Now A-chan has Han Solo, Chewbacca, a Stormtrooper and R2. Not sure who's next, maybe 3PO. In any case her play table is a multicultural tangle of dolls, that's for sure.
