Sofia isn't much of a girly girl, certainly not when it comes to playing with dolls. She usually goes first for the trucks, robots, super heroe dress up, or any other type of typical boy toy. That's not to say she never plays with dolls, just not very regularly. I hadn't seen her play with the orphanage of naked baby dolls housed in her closet toy bin for quiet a while. So, I was very surprised to come out from Baby Peter's room after nursing him, changing him and putting him to sleep to find both Sofia and Marcelo maternally holding freshly dressed baby dolls, whome they were both calling "Peter".
Seeing the dolls neatly dressed in pajamas alone was enough for a double take. They looked very real. Then I realized they were dressed in real baby clothes (a gift of premie clothes I hadn't used that Sofia had apparantly discovered and helped herself to). She insisted on me letting her use baby Peter's new burp cloths I had made. Marcelo was equally --maternal. He was lovingly holding his "Baby Peter" and taking care of him.
So, so very cute.
