I had my third daughter several months ago. And when she began to stuff her blankets into her mouth to chew on I knew I could finally buy one of these dolls. She loves it. It goes everywhere with us, and whenever she falls asleep there is always some part of the doll clasped in ther little fist. She immediately loved the face. And finds the two "harder" feet and hands particularly good to put in her mouth (she also likes the knot on the cap). I like that I can wash it- although I haven't yet as I think she likes the familiar smell. I like the colors of the doll, and the fun little removable collar.
