Has anyone ever washed a Cabbage Patch doll???

Let me introduce you all to "baby Shelly". This is Chloe's favorite doll of all time. She goes with us everywhere. She eats most meals with us. Chloe absoutely loves her!!! Well she is so dirty. I don't know if I can wash her in the washing machine in a garment bag. Has anyone ever tried it. I can not let anything happen to her because I would have one heart broken little girl.

Chloe came up with her name all by herself. We have a neighbor named Shelly that Chloe loves. She loves to go over and play with Shelly's kids: Emma, Kylee, and Gage. One day Shelly was watching Chloe and Shelly gave 'baby Shelly' back to her because she forgot her. Every since then the dolls name is Shelly.

The Goodrich's said...: Baby Shelly? That's funny. I didn't know she named her that!

I've washed Molly's pink baby (we're not as creative with names) in the washing machine before...maybe just don't dry it. Good luck!; September 8, 2008 at 1:40 PM
Bree said...: I too have washed baby dolls in the washer all the time. Both my girls have gone through stages where they have had to bring along their special babies...and they get totally dirty. Just wash in the slow/gentle cycle and air dry and Shelly will be fine.

PS-You looked so cute with your pregnant belly when I saw you at church last week:); September 8, 2008 at 1:56 PM
valerie said...: We actually bathe our Cabbage Patch dolls in the shower. I know it sounds weird...same soap and water we use. It works great! Then air dry!; September 9, 2008 at 10:25 AM

Fuuny things Chloe says

The 2nd day we had been home from the hospital Chloe walked into the family room where I was feeding Tessa. She looked at me with the strangest look and said, "Mom she is eating you."

"Mom you are soooooo funny. You crack me up."

"Dad look at Roanie's (0ur dog) animal lips."

I had given Chloe some sixlets and she wanted them on one of her My Little Pony plates. I told her to be careful because they might roll off. She walked so, very, extremely carefully to her table. She dropped them once and very patiently picked them up and then she got like 5 inches from her table she tripped. Out of my sweet little 2 year olds mouth come, "O SH....." I should have been mad at her but I could not stop laughing. Once I sort of controlled my laughter I told her that we do not say that word. Then she proceded to tell me that daddy says that so it is okay. I told her that it was not okay and she just kept saying, 'it is true, daddy says it.' Christopher is watching what is says around her much more carefully.

"Mom we don't have tails like animals do, we have bottoms."

2/7/09
Chloe was playing with her babies ans she came up to me with baby Shelly and said, "tell Shelly hi, Grandma."

2/20/09
We were at Target today and as we were walking around Chloe was singing 'I am a child of God' and her ABC's at the TOP of her lungs. As we were leaving I told her that she needed to put her coat on and she said, "thanks for thinking about me.' She is a very polite little girl!

Tessa is so stinkin' cute.

I wish I were a Cheeto. (Cheetos are Chloe's fav!!!)

Octapuses can play a lot of violins.

Chloe is very concerned what we are taking with us when we move. Everyday she is asking me if we are taking all sorts of things like her jewelry, bed, clothes and toys. Today she was asking me questions and I told her that we are taking everything. Even everything on our walls. She looked at me with a puzzled look and said, 'how are we going to get the walls there.'

8/4/09
"Mom, my tummy told me it needs to watch a movie."

12/30/09
As we were leaving the surgical center after Chloe had her tonsils out she said," Mom that was fun." I asked her what part was fun and she said, 'All of it'.

1/16/10
We were getting ready to go to a baby shower. Chloe usually stays home with Christopher but I was letting her go with me. I asked her if she wanted to go to a baby shower with me and she said 'Ya, but do we get wet.'

1/16/10
Chloe asked me if she could tear the paper off of the easel and I told her to just wait a minute and I can help her. She did not listen and tried to do it herself. She actually did probably did just as good of job as I could tear the paper off. She looked at me and said, 'Mom aren't you impressed.'

1/17/10
'Mom do you know that bunnies have a great sense of smell.'

3/1/10
Chloe and I were laying in her bed getting ready for bed and this is our conversation:
Chloe: "Mom we can't see good in the dark."
Me: "Well, I know but who can?"
Chloe: "Jesus and Troadons."
