Purple Baby was a gift from Gracie's Opa and Oma (I happen to know that Opa got up early and braved the crowds at Walmart the Day After Thanksgiving and then spent time going through the dolls to find a cute Cabbage Patch doll with a good name...no easy feat!) for her second Christmas. Purple Baby also smells good and came with the lovely name EmmaLeigh but inevitably has been called Purple Baby.
Blue Baby was a gift from Gracie's great Opa and Oma for her second birthday. He also goes by the name Baby Boy. He has been an invaluable baby as Grace also has a baby boy to love and take care of, just like Mommy.
Grace loves to put her babies to bed. She especially loves to plop them ever so gently into the crib (even if Ethan happens to be in the crib and doesn't want to share the space).
Each baby receives a loving kiss after being placed in the crib. Isn't she sweet?
Heaven forbid anyone in this house goes to sleep without a baby of their own! Oh no, Grace makes sure that both Ethan and her babies have their own babies to help them fall asleep. I'm not sure who might be more grateful of her generosity.
After settling the babies in the crib Gracie proceeded to sing them a lullabye. It went something like this:
La La La La La
Alleluia
Gracie
I love you
La La La La La
And then she ran to the bookcase and read Elmo Does the Hokey Pokey to her babies.
The book was so good Gracie just had to dance the Hokey Pokey for her babies enjoyment! She had me sing the song for her and she performed the actions. You had to be there.
And now it's time to turn off the lights. Night Night babies!
Wait a minute, someone wants to escape the room before he gets shut inside all alone! Grace patiently waited for her brother to make his getaway before proceeding to close the door.
Sleep tight babies! I love you!

Cute post! I think my Emmaleigh needs a baby doll with her name! Her favorite is one she got for her first birthday and she calls it Baby 1. We also have Baby 2, (for her second birthday), but it is clearly not the favorite child and is neglected.
