I just thought I would share my doll bonding idea with y'all. For some reason I have trouble bonding with the newer dolls. I think they are beautiful but there is something about the harder vinyl that makes their legs go clackety clack when they bang together. But anyway, I recently won a beatup Kit that I thought was my coveted Kailey on ebay. I haven't received her yet so what I have done to bond with her is put her picture on my computer desktop. She makes my heart melt every time I see her and I can't wait to get her!
