I had this very same doll set (I am 35). As I recall, she was about 12 inches tall, short blonde hair with bows, blue jumpsuit, and tiny gray elephant. I believe that she also came with a blue crib (though I may be imagining this). I have been looking for her on eBay but with no luck as of yet. Could possibly be that it was spelled differently. I would suggest doing what I did a few years back when I was looking for a toy I used to have. Go to the library and find the microfiche of old Sears Christmas catalogs and browse through the doll sections. I would guess it was between 1976-1979. If I find the makers etc, before you do, I will post back to you. Good luck.

I have heard of it but don't know that it would make a lot of difference one way or the other.If it eases your mind then why not. We had dogs and cats when all of our kids were babies and they all seemed to adjust to the new presence in the house.Never had one to snap or bite.Cat's never bothered them either.One cat liked to curl up in the crib but only when the baby wasn't in there.Dog were never allowed to lick the little ones(or anyone for that matter)on the face.In fact I have never allowed my dogs to lick.If any of them acted inappropriately around little ones they were reprimanded and removed from the room.They soon learned what they could do and what they were not allowed to do.I would never allow the dog to be in the same room alone with a baby.I think a lot depends on the temperament of the dog as well.Many people spoil their pets and treat them like children so I could see a possible problem in that case. We have a big dog here.She is a Boxer/Dalmatian mix and weighs about 70 lbs. They got her when she was 4 months old and she had obviously been abused at some point.She was a little babied by DIL and DS for 2 years before the twins arrived and I was a little nervous about how she would react to a baby in the house,much less 2! LOL She sniffed and licked and was very aware of new sounds and such but never showed anything but love for these babies.They love her to death and she loves them and is very protective of them when strangers are around.They can do just about anything to her and she just sits there like if she ignores them they will go away.LOL The only problem she has is that killer tail! When she wags it they had better get out of the way.LOL

We went thru this with DD when she was 22 months. (And wow I made some desperate posts). Some of the suggestions I got were helpful, especially: 1) Convert the crib into the toddler bed, but rearrange the room, buy new sheets and make it a special occassion. I picked a snugly pink organic flannel and she loves it. 2) Put a (tall) gate across the door. DD launched herself over the short presure gates so we mounted a locking gate on the outside of the doorframe. 3) At naptime, close the curtains so it's dim and relaxing (a lullaby tape is a nice touch). Put anything you don't want her to play with out of reach. Explain: it's quiet time... she may sleep or read her books or whatever she wants... mommy is going to rest. Go thru your usual sleep rituals and then leave. 4) If she hollers at the gate... that's your call. Some parents let them yell, stopping by every five minutes or so to re-explain the concept of quiet time. Since youre using the gate instead of the closed door, you can see that she's okay. 5) The length of quiet time is up to you. If she hates it, start out with maybe 30 minutes. (One friend uses a timer.) As she adjusts you can lengthen it. And here's my testimonial: DD is the type of first-born extrovert that expects my undivided attention every waking minute. And yet, after a tearful two-day introduction, this has worked beautifully. Some days she plays quietly with her books or a puzzle I leave out. (Without fail she plants herself on her lambskin rug, another idea for you.) Other days she stays in bed and sleeps. Other days she plays until sleepy and crawls into bed. Still other days she sleeps and then wakes up to play quietly. That last one, especially, is a miracle. A note on the transition: Before putting up the gate I realized that her worst nightmare was my closing the door. I explained to her that when she stayed in bed, the door could stay open. If she got out, the door would have to close. (Sorry, my love, it's simply the law of the universe.) I closed the door on her a few times, and explained that the door would open when she got back into bed. It never took more than 15 seconds. She would read, play with her doll and almost inevitably fall asleep. I later started using the gate and "quiet time" (which she does not mind like a closed door, perhaps because she is used to the concept) because I wanted to take a nap myself. One day she woke up before me and, rather than coming to my room like I expected, she went downstairs and made mud pies in the flowerpots. Cheers and LOL!

Well as long as it's in the kiddo room it should work :) I do know though that when we take the front off of our guy's crib it's a bit wobbly...so if it were me, I'd reinforce the thing with a little wood from down below (picture the kids bouncing on it...as they will) My little guy just discovered bouncing on the bed...and he's tiny, but he can bounce those silly clips right off of his crib base. And you can steal your own post LOL I think that's allowed. Sadly we're not in baby mode anymore :( Our little one didn't make it through the surgery (not good for developing fetus). But we'll get back on the band wagon soon and I'll be back into baby talk again :o)
