We have 12 children. Four of them are alive and the other ones not
0:07
My children, we teach them to take care of them. Like a real baby, you know? Some people think it's weird
0:17
These are super creepy. Horrible. They look dead. Some people, they are afraid because they look like very real
0:23
This is your baby. Are you afraid like maybe your kids are going to be confused about the dogs
0:30
Let's go girls, let's eat. My name is Enrique. My name is Lorraine
0:40
And we have many, many kids. We have biological kids, four. But put something down, so they'll be very big
0:50
There it is, it's beautiful. Do you want to sit here, because the rest will be at the back? Yes
0:55
To eat? Yes. And like eight of them, they're born crazy. Yeah
1:04
The reborn baby is silicone baby. Sculpted like a real baby with all details
1:11
Always we prepare breakfast all together with the babies. Baby. Yeah, this is your baby
1:20
Kiss your baby. Like a big family. What is the role of these babies in your family
1:26
My children, we teach them to take care of them. Have to treat like a real baby, you know
1:32
This is normal for us. We're making quesadillas, and they are taking care of their own babies
1:37
So, this is my baby. The name is Elena. It's a pretty baby
1:43
And also, she has the sister. But I like more, I think, Elena
1:48
because I think it's more like real, with the eyes closed. Do you sleep with the baby
1:54
No. We put them in the room. Mama! How did this reborn dolphin come Our background our artists too my father and her mother they are sculptures and painters I fell in love with this art And when we married she took her collections and everything to our new home
2:14
And I thought it was a little bit weird. And I told her, you know, you have to sell those babies or give it away because I don't like that much
2:23
She sold that one like in two hours. She told me maybe we can make a baby like this
2:28
Because at that time there were not too many artists doing this
2:31
So actually we are like three or four in the world doing that
2:35
Everyone is crying here. This is a very special baby for us
2:39
With the umbilical cord and everything with placenta like a newborn baby
2:44
Look at here. You see the movement of this one. Is there any kind of like emotional bonding in between you and the kids and the dogs
2:53
They have like their favorite ones. Sometimes they go to sleep with them, and actually they have like a..
3:00
And they put it there, and they play. You do this every morning? Every day
3:05
Yeah, like normal, I make videos. My daughter, she likes to do the routine, you know
3:11
This is my routine in the morning, what I do with my baby. My morning routine with my silicone baby
3:17
She likes to dress them up and she's like changing the diapers
3:27
So first I want to change the diaper because in the night they're make..
3:34
I don't even say anything. Okay. They make milk. Take milk. Take milk and give to them
3:40
Give it a bath to the baby. Just take care of the baby like it's a real one
3:45
and I put a little bit of water. And so I have put the dress
3:56
So this is like a little bit heavy, like seven pounds. She's ready
4:03
Are you not afraid like maybe your kids are going to be, especially the younger ones a bit confused about the dolls They don confuse it because when we have our first daughter we present to her and tell them like you have to take care because they have a new brother they don want them you know
4:18
and they reject them. And that's why we use them as preparing them
4:22
They learn to be patient and take care of them. How many babies have you made
4:29
That's a good question. Too many. Hundreds, I think. I search on the internet and I like that mouth, I like that nose, I like that ears and everything
4:42
And she makes one baby from her imagination. Sometimes we make for people, sometimes we make our own babies to remember when they were babies
4:54
This one here and that one in there, they are not human babies. No
4:57
What is that? This is the head of an English bulldog. It comes like this
5:09
What is the price of one of these babies? One of her babies sold like for $10,000
5:18
It's like art. They are looking for, I don't know, limited edition, one of a kind
5:24
They collected like watches or you collect candles or whatever, and they appreciate like real art, you know
5:31
but also couples, young couples, and they are trying to have babies
5:36
but they cannot, I don't know, it's complicated or something but then they get one baby like this
5:42
and suddenly it's not so much stress to get a real baby
5:46
and they get pregnant suddenly, you know? That's also therapy babies. You think for some people this is therapeutic
5:53
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, 100%, yes. You're talking about criticism of negative comments
5:59
Yeah, it's all in social media, you know, social media they are haters and they are followers and that's this world
6:07
Some people think it's weird. These are super creepy not for me Horrible they look dead Oh yeah mutilating and blocking these two creepy Sometimes we don go out with our babies because we know already that it going to be a lot of people
6:26
Okay. Nice, Dad. If we go, like, for a shopping center, a mall or something
6:36
all the people come, I don't know what they think. Sometimes they look at you
6:41
So some people, they are afraid, but three minutes, they say, I want one of those
6:50
I would love to get one. They look real and beautiful. Green baby
7:00
Green baby. We are not creating like monsters or something. We are creating like real babies to take care
7:07
Do you have a message for people who have judged you? For people who are judging us, you have to know us better and get involved with this kind of art
7:17
It's very easy sometimes to judge somebody, you know, for something. But if you give yourself the opportunity to look, to check it out and everything
7:26
I think I'm 100% sure that you will love them. Because I was like all these people before, you know
7:33
Do you think when your kids get old, adults, do you want them to also do the same thing
7:38
To have adults for their kids
