I only know you through the blogosphere h...Heather,<br />I only know you through the blogosphere having stumbled across your blog through a series of links, but I've been enjoying reading it for the past several weeks. <br />We have three boys who were each adopted through foster-care as infants or toddlers. Our oldest is AA and dark-skinned, our younger two are Dominican/Caucasian, one is tan/olive and the other is fairly light-skinned. Most of the "black" baby dolls we have found are similar in skin tone to our middle boy(tan/olive), and many have the same features as the "white" baby dolls. Our oldest has a little softbodied Payskool doll that is nearly as dark as he is. He also has a hadmade cloth African doll which is great. Playskool also used to make a "black" My Buddy doll. I think is had the same features as the "white" My Buddy doll, but it had a dark skin tone. You might be able to find 1 or 2 :) on ebay.<br />Anyway, sorry for the long comment. Your boys are beautiful, and your ennjoyment of them really shines through on the blog. Thanks for sharing.<br />JulieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35860543.post-24584282794817410972007-01-22T18:33:00.000-05:002007-01-22T18:33:00.000-05:00That is adorable.

Many of the "black" babies I have found look just like white ones w/ darker skin. We might need to get one of those.. My Cubby is very nurturing and since he currenly has a real baby to play with, we are going to wait on a baby purchase, but when we do, I want that one!!! :-)<br /><br />The Thomas thing is pretty funny too. They seem so earnest...Bekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02421106490759593190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35860543.post-26138721494663888272007-01-22T16:00:00.000-05:002007-01-22T16:00:00.000-05:00This is quite possibly the sweetest post EVER.This is quite possibly the sweetest post EVER.art-sweethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07421342770323258531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35860543.post-77697355514317912672007-01-22T08:23:00.000-05:002007-01-22T08:23:00.000-05:00Heather, This is my favorite post yet :)
