the day octavia started talking

Octavia is one of these little ones. not anymore babies, but not so big. oh, she's the most beautiful little girl ever. and so clever…

Octavia is a chatty little person with a unique but very powerful word. it' sounds like Beebee but means both cat, bees, bird, baby or bottle of milk. she can say it all the day, everyday. 
— oh geez, her parents sigh sometimes, we can't wait for she adds one or two words to her corpus…
 

— Octavia darling, mom says, it's time to put some cloth on.
she catches her baby and puts on a flowery dress.
alas, Octavia has no intention to wear any dress today. she rolls on the floor and shouts, just to try…

— oh my sweet heart, dad says, what's the matter? I know, you want pink bloomers and sleeveless blouse…

But Octavia doesn't agree. no pink bloomers, no sleeveless blouse today. Octavia rolls on the floor and shouts, the most loudly she can…

poor mom and dad, they really don't know what to do, they can't let her cry. mom catches her baby, gives her a hug and looks at dad.

— maybe she needs rompers today, no?

and they dress her with dot rompers, not too short, not too long, very comfy with a pocket for treasuries. 

but Octavia doesn't want rompers. she looks at her parents, sits on the floor and says "NO". a big and firm NO. very determined.

— Good lord, mum and dad yell, she talks. our Octavia said no!
— Notwithstanding, nasal consonants are soooo difficult to pronounce. OMG, Octavia is so gifted.
— NO, Octavia says. NO NO NO. nonononono. nononononononononono. nonononononononononononononono.

— poor Octavia, her parents say, we can't dress her with rompers, not today…

they pull off rompers and search in the drawer…

Octavia watches her panties, she's happy, claps her hands and starts leaving.

hey, Octavia, dad says, don't you forget something?

— BOOBOO, octavia says, boobooboobooboo. and she puts on her boots like a very girl!

mom looks at dad, dad looks at mom. proud moment, Octavia is now a talking person! and by the way, does she really need to wear clothes today?


Octavia is a 12" waldorf inspired baby. she's made with organic cotton and carded wool. her hair is goat, and her face is embroidered.
All her outfits are cotton, except the felted boots (hand knit and felted by myself).
Octavia comes with a dress, bloomers and sleeveless shirt, rompers and her favorite ruffle panties. and of course, her booboo. hmm, sorry, her booties…

Octavia costs 450€ + shipping fees.

you can add two extra sets of garments (one set = 50€)

set one: (shirt, double gauze bloomers & bandana)

 set two: (shirt, chambray trousers & bandana)
