Где? Maybe inside that hamper thingy-majig.

By the way, it looks more like a boy than a girl.

I thought it was a boy first. Then I wondered why he was wearing a dress, then you said girl, so I thought girl.

Luckily today in the era of colourful fabrics we can label our children with pink and blue.

Actually, it is wearing a cape so maybe it's a wizard. Therefore it may not have a sex.

The way he's dressed in that cloak makes him look like a nanny from Nanny 911. He has the moustache and everything.

Actually, it could well be a boy, since back in the day they dressed small children in girly outfits regardless of sex. And you should be shot for even MENTIONING Nanny 911. It makes me sick -- ugghhhh :?
