Hannah got this beautiful doll as a Christmas gift from her Aunt & Uncle. It l0oks like what Hannah's little sister will look like. Hannah actually received the gift on the Christmas Eve of Ethiopia (Jan. 6th). We didn't plan that but I think it is kind of cool how it just happened that way. Anyway when we got home Hannah said she wanted to give her baby an Ethiopian name. So I went my list of Ethiopian girl names and started reading them off to her (not telling her the meanings) and when I came to Aida she "Yes, Aida should be her name". This child has Princess radar built right in. Aida means Ethiopian Princess. I've seen "Aida" on Broadway a couple of times and absolutely love this show. I liked it better the first time I saw it because Heather Headley played the lead and she is so very talented.
Hannah is practicing to be a loving a caring big sister 
Isn't this doll just the cutest ?Hannah noticed that her baby needed some baby booties and I said we would shop for some. Her Aunt called today to tell her she had found some preemie baby booties and a sleeper for her baby. This made us think of how much things have changed in the last 30 years. Hannah has a cousin that was born prematurely nearly 30 years ago (less than 2lbs). Her mother actually had to buy doll clothes for her because there was really no baby clothes that small for a baby. Now you can buy preemie clothes for your doll...I think that is so funny.
Blessings,
Bliss
