You will have to undress your dolls and take pictures of the dolls, especially the back butt and neck.

I'm going out on a limb here so just remember, these comments are just my personal opinion:
I'm not sure what brand of doll you have but I do not believe these are Cabbage Patch dolls.
It looks like you have 2 of the same doll, just dressed differently.

Your dolls certainly resemble the Cabbage Patch dolls, but, to my knowledge, these dolls were never made with their eyes closed as this was one of their main features.
I am not an expert on these dolls so if I'm wrong on this I feel sure someone will make the correction.

Someone may be able to help you identify your dolls with more pictures and measurements.

I know there seems to be some doubt as to the authenticity of your dolls. I know that it appears your dolls are alike except for the clothing and Cabbage Patch did not do this - but - is it possible these are not the original clothes?

Please send pictures so someone can try to determine for sure if your dolls are - or are not - Cabbage Patch Brand.

Your dolls have facial expressions similar to Cabbage Patch dolls, but I don't think they are the original Cabbage Patch dolls. They are more of Cabbage Patch Kids Look Alike Dolls.

Your doll's eyes open and close. Cabbage Patch dolls are also made with such eyes, but not so long ago and they have cloth body. The body of your dolls is not cloth (at least the arms and legs that I see in the photos).

Cabbage Patch Kids are a line of one-of-a-kind cloth dolls with plastic heads first produced by Coleco Industries in 1982.
Companies that made Cabbage Patch dolls:
Coleco (1982-1988)
Hasbro (1988-1994)
Mattel (1994-2003)
Toys "R" Us (2003)
Play Along (2004-2011)
Jakks Pacific (2011-2014)
Wicked Cool Toys (2015 - present)
As you can see, Jakks Pacific is on the list, so there is no doubt that the original Cabbage Patch dolls are also made with open and close eyes, but they have cloth bodies.

To understand who made your dolls, inspect them and look for the manufacturer's stamp on the body, perhaps it is on back of the neck. Look for labels on clothing. I have a guess that your dolls were made by Uneeda, but I'm not sure.
I found Uneeda, 1984, Cabbage Patch, Clone, Baby Doll, Vinyl Doll www.etsy.com/.../uneeda-1984-cabbage-patch-clone-baby...
Uneeda 1990's Rare Cabbage Patch Kids Look Alike Dolls with open / close eyes 12" www.ebay.com/.../324711096791, www.worthpoint.com/.../1990-uneeda-cabbage-patch-girl-doll... These dolls still have a label with the manufacturer Uneeda. As you can see, this company has been making Cabbage Patch Kids Look Alike Dolls with opening and closing eyes for a long time.

Many sellers of looking like Cabbage Patch dolls are not sure if they have original dolls.

Cabbage Patch dolls were very popular, so I think a lot of companies made dolls that were somewhat similar.

Unless they are the original Cabbage Patch dolls, signed by Xavier Roberts, they are worth very little. If they are, they are worth thousands of dollars.

Do these have the printed (not actual signature) on the butt? What color is it? Can you show it please?

Once I know a little more, I can help guide you to values.

Thanks!
