Meet Alexia, she's been birth from Eva.W's "Jonas" sculpt from the Little dreams collection.
She's extra special though as she REALLY BREATHS. I put an Ashton Drake "ashleigh" breather box in her. I got the ashton drake one months ago reborn it but took the breather box out so i could use it on another one, and this little girl ended up being the "chosen one".
Oh how i wish you could get these boxes just as supplies without having to buy an expensive collector doll to pull it out of.
anyway she's going to be the center of attention i think in my exhibit... the count down is on... set up in thursday, then the show friday. sat & sunday.
*lovesD* will i have her in a sleeper bag, these are very "free sized" this one is for 0-6months. The T-shirt she's in is a 00 (but i got this big so as not to be to tight and stop the breather box expanding). She'd be a 000 - 00 in clothing though, i've done a number of babies of this size before so you'd be quite all right getting your own 000-00.
She is just beatiful! She have that look of a older baby, not a newborn. I wish that showed us a video of that little baby breathing... Naomi you have to take lots of pictures of the exhibit and the showed to us too! Good luck on the exhibit!!!! I wish you the best! : )
Susan she is a big baby, about the size of a 4month old.
my camera does record video files (though i've never used this function before) and i imagin i could then upload to youtube and post a link to that to show her breathing... i'll see what i can do later today.
I'm off to get a new ink cartridge for my printer... i'm printing up an album of my adopted babies for display and order examples.

Baby clothes in the US are sized at 0-5 lbs. up to 7 lbs. Newborn, and then 0-3 months or 3 months, 3-6 months or 6 months, etc.
IN australia, it depends on the weight and length of a baby, the premie size would be about 4-5 pound and take 00000-0000, 6-7 pound 000-00 but if your baby is born at 9 pound 5ozs like my daughters, he went into 00 and o,s now at 1 yr, he fits into his brothers sizes 1&2. His brother is only2 yrs 5 mths. If you dont want to take the reborn with you , measure it,s leangth, body from neck to crutch and shoulder to toes and take a tape measure with you , you,ll then have a rough idea and beable to change if the size isn,t right.June M from Oz
All the luck in the world for the show over the weekend hunny.......you deserve to sell every one of those babies you have been working on. Uncle couldn't believe Alexia could breath when I showed him the vid!! She's gorgeous and looks so lifelike. It is a pity the breather can't be purchased seperately as an accessory item. Mwwwah....
