I've reborn a number of adorable baby's from Berenguer doll molds and I love the way they turned out! Not only do they make you just want to hug them, but they're fun to dress and pose. See all the beautiful reborns available Here.
My newest additions to Karens Kids are these adorable 18" baby doll's. They have velcro tipped fingers so they can grab their toes and fingers, just like a real baby. They "suck" a binky but when you remove the binky, they have a big smile on their face! They're butt is "ruffled" like real baby cheeks.. They're cutie's and can be seen Here.
