Last weekend, one of our itineraries was to go to the mall, let the girls play some arcade games at Tom’s World, and exchange the tickets we have collected so far for some prizes.
Hubby and I had a chance to stroll on our own as my sister and mom took care of the girls while they were playing. In short, we were not there when Ayex chose the prizes in exchange of the accumulated tickets we have.
She got candies, pens, sharpener, glue and a doll. The doll looks like Barbie, only that Barbie looks way prettier. It is dressed in a blue long dress that feels like a cheap fabric and it is barefoot. (You think you know have an idea how I reacted when I saw it.) My mom keeps on giving me that stop-look because I keep on criticizing the poor doll.
So Ayex finally blurted out. Mommy, bili na lang tayo ng new dress niya at shoes para maganda na siya. (Mommy, let’s just buy her new dresses and shoes to make her pretty). I laughed at the thought. Then she told the same thing to my mom and to my sisters, as if they did not hear her tell me that.
Just a few minutes ago, I searched a popular buy and sell site and I was in awe with what I found. Gorgeous hand-sewn dress for a Barbie doll, matched with free bag and shoes! The designs of the dresses are like our real clothes. Some are probably inspired by what actresses wear! The price ranges from $6-10.
Oh my. Is this the start? Am I ready should I allow Ayex to have this collection? (Maybe I will buy the Barbie clothes instead of my own!) LOL.
I am just thankful that the princess is already sleeping while I was browsing the page. I still have time to think it over and do not let Ayex pressure me. LOL.

I remember when I was a little girl I had a lot of Barbie dresses complete with shoes and bags sold in sets. I don’t know if they still sell stuff like that here.
