Where In The World Is Baby Punkin'?

My mom got Lizzie an American Girl Doll, Bitty Baby, for Christmas a few years ago. Lizzie LOVES her. She calls her Baby Punkin and dresses her up in preemie clothes. They sometimes even wear matching outfits.

Shortly after we returned from Christmas this year, Sadie the beast dog, chewed off all the fingers on Baby Punkin's left hand! Luckily there is an American Girl Hospital. So, we packed her up and sent her on her way.

I will be more than glad when Sadie gets over her chewing stage!
I asked Brian to track her via UPS and oops - the records indicated that she never arrived at her destination! UPS tracked her for another week, and just today Brian turned in the paper work to get reimbursed for her. I had it all planned. I was going to buy a new doll and tell Lizzie that instead of coming home in a hospital gown, they sent her home in a pretty outfit like her new cousin Kelsey wore.

Two hours after Brian faxed in the paperwork, I came home to find a box on the doorstep. It was Baby Punkin'! And she HAD been to the hospital AND she was all fixed.

Not sure what happened with UPS, but now we have to contact them and tell them to not send us a check!
