I didn't even realise that I read blogs assuming a certain gender wrote them until I was surprised at your picture! Now that I think about it, I think the last blog I wrote was written by a woman, but I am quite sure the author didn't say anything about their gender. How odd! I wonder if that makes me an awful person, but it wasn't even a concsious thing. Hmmmm.<br />I also find dolls creepy, and I can't sleep with one on my bed.<br />I really enjoyed reading your posts, and thrift shops are awesome!

Once upon a time they were well loved, and helped soothe many a young child. Taken prisoner by baby or older brothers and held for ransom until sister or owner could rescue them. Monsters of dogs and cats who would take them away and try to bury them in the back garden or in their beds...and now they sit all alone in the shop looking for someone to see beyond the tattered and worn exterior and bring them home to be loved once again. I wish I could, but sadly I have no room.

Every summer, my dad would take us to this big outdoor flea market, and my entire focus was finding the doll that I would buy. I would not leave until I had one! Many looked like the ones you posted, it was never a new doll, but I didn't care, I loved the gently used ones just as much as new :)Kinley Danehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02648398736837020249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1844816520985230989.post-33929745978528889202013-04-02T16:33:25.175-07:002013-04-02T16:33:25.175-07:00Spooky?Spooky?flip mcflipersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03075014395015492293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1844816520985230989.post-61220471100685599392013-04-02T15:30:29.555-07:002013-04-02T15:30:29.555-07:00I know!I know!Tami Von Zalezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11065017061040785838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1844816520985230989.post-40174438294806049352013-04-02T15:30:12.008-07:002013-04-02T15:30:12.008-07:00I can't resist the stuffed toys either.

Stuffed animals, yes, but I always thought babydolls were a little creepy. The aging on these hasn't really helped their case. Interesting post, but I think I'll stick to stuffed animals. Even though they get a little scurvy looking as they age (think teddy bears with mange).<br /><br />Hi from <a href="http://nagzilla.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">Nagzilla</a> bloghopping A to ZNagzillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17759428185831351862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1844816520985230989.post-75301523567491537442013-04-02T11:50:12.333-07:002013-04-02T11:50:12.333-07:00I'm strangely attracted to those fuzzy heads.....I'm strangely attracted to those fuzzy heads...its the oddest thing!Laelihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04263566638015498093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1844816520985230989.post-36847107065136864532013-04-02T10:05:26.443-07:002013-04-02T10:05:26.443-07:00LOL, I love it!LOL, I love it!Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08827651632884248765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1844816520985230989.post-78974962205181769382013-04-02T08:30:38.346-07:002013-04-02T08:30:38.346-07:00My mom always brings rescue stuffed toys home from...My mom always brings rescue stuffed toys home from thrifting.

This Baby Doll Mugshots post is so neat. My Mom recently moved out of a house and we came across her baby doll from when she was a child. The hair is matted, the skin discolored, but the memories it holds are priceless. <br />Brandy from brandysbustlings.blogspot.ca~Brandy~https://www.blogger.com/profile/11315120700855490723noreply@blogger.com
