baby alive

I was shopping for Christmas gifts in the toy aisle at Walmart yesterday and found that doll that Laura used to have--BABY ALIVE. It even has food packs that you combine with water to make "juice" and "apple sauce." So it poops and pees. This one even had a potty and it would tell you when it had to go.

I also remember Laura begging Mom to buy her the food. And Mom telling her it was too expensive. And Mom mixing something in water and Laura crying because it "wasn't the same!"

But the best was hooking her up to the hose.

And ask Laura about the time I talked her into letting me cut her doll's hair instead of mine. I wasn't stupid, I knew my doll's hair wouldn't grow back. I think Mom still has that doll up in the attic. Poor thing! Looks like she had a rough life!

Oh the memories!!
