ted
Does anyone know how a one and half year old baby reacts to having a
brand new sibling? She herself is still a baby and she's pampered very
well. I was wondering if there's a way to get her used to the idea of

American Girl Place by
LFortier
We're planning a spring break trip to NYC, and plan to take
our girls (10 and 7) to American Girl Place. How much time
should we plan on it taking? We won't be seeing the show,
but will probably have a lunch there. Anything we shouldn't
miss?
