Ha ha let the Barbie purchases begin! That is just too cute. My mom still has every single Barbie of mine in a rubbermaid tub.

She’s adorable! I had 3 Barbies, I remember them fondly. Even if I did cut the hair off one. Oops.

I wish I had a Princess barbie! That’s so funny because every doll/woman that’s all dolled up (or even in a flowing dress), Aiden refers to them as a princess.
