An American Girl

On Saturday mornings I get to go to the gym, run errands or get a pedicure while Bob and Reese spend the morning together. Although it is only a few hours to myself it is a really nice break for me. Also I think it is good for Bob and Reese to have some one on one time. When she was really little he used to look at me with this deer in the headlights look and say, "how long will you be gone" with fear in his voice. Now that she is a little older and easier to care for he has really started looking forward to Saturday mornings with Reese. He takes her out for breakfast, to the toy store he has even taken her to buy clothes! Lately when I get home from my outing they are still gone so I know they are out having fun.

This past Saturday he decided to take her to the Galleria to the American Girl Store. Now I have never been to this store but I have heard it is quite the place for anything dolls. You can get a doll made to look like your daughter, dress like your daughter, go to the movies or have tea with your daughter. He quickly realized that Reese may be a little young for such a doll when a helpful lady tells him..oh you should get her a "Bitty Baby." Of course they have babies that look like your daughter!! So Reese got a baby that looks just like her whom we are calling Dolly. I asked Bob what he was going to do when Reese wanted to go back and have tea with her doll and he said, I'll take her to have tea with her doll." Reese is very lucky to have such a great Daddy!

Everyone meet Dolly...Dolly this is everyone!




As usual she enjoyed the bag it came in just as much as the doll:)
