Lee Middleton Dolls - Celebrating Thirty Years in 2008

We are pleased to announce that we received in yesterday both the little baby boy and baby girl of Lee Middleton's Special 30th Anniversary dolls. They are both just adorable.

They are both named "Thirty Years of Sweet Memories" and let us tell you a bit about them.

Thirty Years of Sweet Memories (Girl) is dressed in a beautiful ivory dupioni silk baby romper and is adorned with thirty genuine freshwater pearls.

Thirty Years of Sweet Memories (Boy) is dressed in a fancy light blue dupoini silk baby romper with genuine mother of pearl buttons.

Both come with their own coordinated blanket that has "30 Years of Sweet Memories' embroidered on it. Additionally, both are wearing a realistic baby diaper with a baby scent sachet inside. It makes them smell like a real baby!
