Did you order her with the softer tpe or the regular one?
I didn't specify, so I'm not sure what they used. She is very soft, though. Also, while laying on the bed anyway, from the top of her head to the bottom of her heel she is 5 feet 5 inches.
Bath time! Since she arrived Monday, she has been a VERY dirty girl
The head has been taken off to lighten the load.
How to get a 115lb doll out of the tub? Wipe her down the best you can so she's not slippery. Bend her legs up and her knees down so she's already in a sitting position), crouch down, put your arms around her body, pull her chest up to yours so your back is straight, lift with your legs (basically doing a squat), and set her butt on the edge of the bathtub. I had a chair with wheels next to the tub, so I just repeat that technique, moving her butt from the edge of the tub onto the chair. Then I put my left arm under her legs which were still dangling into the tub, and scooted her all the way into the chair. Then I easily push her back into the bedroom. I covered the chair with a towel beforehand, since I couldn't dry her butt or back of her legs when she was in the tub, the towel will absorb that up.
