Barbie Love


The Honey Girl is rather taken with Barbies these days. And her big brothers join in, whilst pretending desperately that they are not even slightly interested. We've gathered a motley crew from various op shops, and ensured there were plenty of boy barbies, to accomodate my traditionalist sons who wouldn't be caught dead playing with a girl barbie.

Unless it was to undress her (which evokes squeals of laughter and silly giggles)

While no one is watching!


Yesterday the Honey Girl and the Rabbit were playing barbies together. The ensuing conversation went like this :
Honey Girl :I wanna marry Dad
Rabbit : You can't marry Dad, the Mummy Barbie is married to Dad
Honey Girl : Yes I can. I'm marrying the Daddy Barbie, he's dumping Mummy Barbie. Mummy Barbie, you're dumped.......

Daddy Barbie and Honey Girl Barbie embrace.
Mummy Barbie runs off sobbing.
And the wedding music begins.

Wow. Just wow. The girl is 4.
Apparently she has been watching re runs of 90210 while I sleep!
