Whats up Doll

Sophie is a hoarder. I know your thinking how can an 8yr old be a hoarder all ready. Well trust me she is. I swear her last life must have been during the Great Depression when people saved everything.

She will pull stuff out of the garbage because she can use it for something. Even little pieces of paper.  Everything has a purpose. Sighs….I’ve been trying to break her of it cause I can just see her being on the A&E show Hoarders when she’s older.

Case in point. Now granted this is one of her favorite dolls I’m going to tell you about.

First here’s a pic.

Looks normal enough right. Well take a peek at the next pic.

She’s missing her legs. This is a doll Brian had bought for her at Theisens about a year ago. She hadn’t had it very long when one leg fell off and not much longer after that the other leg fell off.  Me being the uncrafty person I am, I stapled the dolls legs back on. If you look closely you can see the staples are still in the doll.

Well, Liz’s dog got a hold of the doll and tore off the legs. Emma being the good sister and helpful sister she is, threw the legs away because they were crap.

Sophie handled the legs being gone with a way only Sophie can.

She told me that her doll had been in a horrible car accident and lost her legs. She’s now in a wheel chair.  *shrugs*

I’ve looked all over for a doll like this to replace it with no luck.

So yesterday Brian bought the girls a gift. 

This is so Sophie and I thought for sure she would finally get rid of the legless doll.  Ha, the joke was on me.

Sophie has decided that the legless doll is the mother of this new doll.

One big happy family I guess.
