Sadie and Barbies

Sadie knows just how she wants Barbies to behave. They have to be standing up -- no sitting or leaning or anything lowbrow like that. They need their arms straight out to the side. The person controlling the Barbie must hold the Barbie around the rib cage, preferably around her back. And they must be naked. Why Cinderella, I never knew! Poor Benny -- as if Zoo Tycoon isn't enough.
Playing Barbie with Sadie is mostly about her saying, "No, Mommy, like this!" Then when I finally get my act together, her Barbie tells mine, "Let's jump!" Then they jump until I need my technique corrected. Just Cinderella and Barbie, out for and afternoon jump on the sofa, in the buff, toes together and arms outstretched.

Sounds like fun.
I was quite particular about my Barbies too, but mine had to be dressed meticulously, including shoes...and finding tiny plastic Barbie shoes in the jungle that was our playroom was like the needle in the haystack.
What is it with the naked Barbies? My daughters' dolls always ended up naked in the toy bin, their hair tangled together to form one big mass. The only one that seemed to always stay clothed was their lone Ken doll.
Hmmmm....
