Choosing A Doll
My AG Doll Wishlist!
Okay, so today I felt like crafting at my computer desk, and I had an idea of making something to hang up by my desk of all the AG dolls that I want! So here is how it turned out:
Ta-daaaa!! It isn’t the best, but I think it turned out pretty cute (you can see it better by clicking on the picture)! It was super easy to make, too! Here’s what I did:
1. I got some red sparkly paper
2. I got out all of my fifty million AG catalogs
3. I looked through each of them, and cut out pictures of each doll I wanted (all except for Nikki. I got hers off of the internet and printed it out π )
4. I scattered them on the paper and stuck them on with glue stick
5. I took hours naming the 5 AG dolls I want (I’m so picky and indecisive. Thanks Emma for suggesting names! π ) and then wrote their names on some sticky labels and stuck them on by the dolls.
6. I added a higher back part with tape and wrote “My Doll Wish List” on it
7. I hung it up! LOL! π
So what do you think? As you can see, I want a LOT of dolls LOLOL! Oooh! Who’s on your wishlist?? I’d love to know!! π
Also, let me know if you make one of these yourself! π

I just had to share this! My sister makes all sorts of fun downloadable prints and sells them on Etsy. I am SO in love with this #blogger one!! I love the sequins and how simple, pretty, and girly it is! π
Excited For GOTY 2015!!
The other day, a leaked photo of GOTY 2015 Grace Thomas Mini Doll was revealed. At first I thought “Well, I’ll have to see what I think of her. I don’t really like black hair and blue eyes on AG dolls.” But then I found out that she has freckles (I’m so in love with dolls that have freckles!) and that she has side bangs!!! I was kind of dying to my friend, Emma about this and I wanted to show you my craziness. So here are some screenshots of texts that I sent to Emma π
I was going insane! I was SO SUPER EXCITED!!! And I still AM!! π π
Then last night I saw the real, actual 18″ version of Grace. Oh. My. Gosh. Anyone wanna guess who’s coming home with me from the AG store on my birthday? π
I won’t post any pictures of her, but I will say that she is very unique and I give AG two BIG thumbs up for her!! I can’t wait to see more pictures of Grace Thomas!! π
I hope you enjoyed! Have a nice rest of your day! π
Are youΒ excited for Grace Thomas to be released?

A First Mini Cutie
Not too long ago, when I was at Target, I found that Our Generation had come out with some new Mini dolls! I surprisingly found myself in love with Mini Sienna and she ended up coming to live with my doll family π
Sienna is warming her cold little hands at the rather large fireplace.
I have personally never cared for the AG Mini Dolls, but the OG ones are just so adorable!
Sienna has such a sweet little face and her eyes are just so pretty!
A side view of Sienna to show her beautifully long ponytails π
Sienna’s shoes are so cute and the quality of them really makes me think of Barbie shoes- the ones you would put on the little Kelly or Tommy dolls! I really love the rose and the tights are also a very nice quality.
Sienna’s vest is probably my favorite part of her outfit! It’s very soft and just so adorable! The shirt and skirt are also very nice.
She also comes wearing an adorable flower headband. I just love the little rhinestone in the middle!
Sienna is a very nice doll and everything about her is a very nice quality and I would definitely recommend these dolls. The Our Generation Mini Dolls are sold for $9.99 at Target- a great deal! I was really happy to be able to add her to my doll collection π
Do you have an OG Mini Doll? What are your thoughts?

Indecisive Me!
Girls- I am going absolutely insane right now! I am a VERY indecisive person, so when it comes down to which doll I wanna ask for, for Christmas- I just about die! π
I am having SO many problems trying to decide between Isabelle or MAG #61 (who will be named Jenna)!
I want both of them SO badly! I’m pretty sure I want MAG#61 more, but here’s my problem:
Although I want #61 more, I’m afraid that if I get her for Christmas, I’m going to regret not getting Isabelle since she won’t be available anymore. And I also really want Isabelle, so I’m just like- URGH!
AND if I get Isabelle for Christmas will I be disappointed I didn’t get #61 first even though I can buy her on my birthday just 2 months later?
Advice, opinions, and HELP would be greatly appreciated right now! π

Another One???
Hi girls! I’m so sorry that I haven’t posted in a while!! I’ve been enjoying a lot of relaxing days as well as doing other things. But Fire Cove Season 2 will be starting this month! And I have another little photostory to share with you as well, so you’ll be quite entertained π
Anyways, moving on to what this post is actually about- I have fallen in love with another doll!!! Like I really need more dolls on my AG Wishlist right now π
This is the new doll I love! Isn’t she pretty?! I love her medium skin with her hair and eye color combo!! So I think she is my 8th doll on my wishlist now. But I seriously love her! π
What dolls are on your wishlist? Who would you get if you could only get ONE more doll?
Have a nice day!

American Girl New Release~ June 26th, 2014
OMGOSH!!! I think I was having a heart attack (not literally π ) over everything π ALL of the new outfits, furniture, pets, accessories- AAAAH!!! I’m just dying (again, not literally π ) over everything!!!! π
I am now going to show you EVERY single new item (except for books) and what I think about them, so get ready for a LONG post! π
We’re gonna start with the pets and pet stuff:
Coconut the Puppy $28- Okay, I seriously love this new version of Coconut! I think she’s so much cuter!! And she has such a sweet little baby face! π
Corgi Puppy $28- Well…. He’s okay. I’d probably like him better in person π
Chocolate Lab Puppy $28- He is so cute! Yeah, I immediately saw it as a boy. LOL!
Dalmatian Puppy $28- Okay, why am I so in love with this little puppy?! I haven’t really decided if I see it as a boy or a girl yet, LOL! Oh! And can I say that I LOVE how they can actually move now??? And apparently they have magnets in their mouth area now since they can hold they’re toys. That’s pretty cool!
Apricot Poodle Puppy $28- This puppy is cute, but not cute enough to wear I’d buy it. I love the fluffiness of it, though! And when I saw the color I thought it’d be really cool if AG someday makes a Golden Retriever. I would definitely buy that π
Himalayan Kitten $28- SO adorable!!! Now, I’m not too fond of cats, but I adore this little kitten!! I may need to add her to my collection someday π
Jeweled Collar & Leash $12- This is SO PRETTY!!!! If I ever get a girl puppy from them I’m gonna have to have this!! π
Spiky Collar & Leash $12- That is so cute! It totally looks super boyish! I think Eli may want this for Pepper….
Blossoms Collar & Leash $12- This is really cute, too! I love the colors!
Charm-ing Pet Collar $16- This is such a good idea!! I love how it’s like a charm bracelet and that you can put your pet’s name! How cute!
Pet Ballerina Outfit $18- This is cute, but I think it’s silly that they made the little slipper. It’s just a random accessory that you can’t really use π
Sporty Pet Outfit $18- This is really cute! I love how they’ve made so many outfits for the pets!
Preppy Pet Outfit $18- All I have to say is… I LOVE this kitten even more!! Look at the little flower in her ear!! π
Pet Camping Outfit $18- This is cute, but I wish they would’ve made something else instead of the bag. Its exactly the same as the old one except different colors π I do like the hat, though!
Petal Pet Outfit $18- Awwwwww!! Coconut looks so adorable!!!
Cuddles and Cures Pet Set $22- Okay, first of all the price. Knowing AG I’d think this would be WAY more! LOL! Now, this set is adorable!! I love the stethoscope!!
Pet Grooming Set $30- Ummm… Maybe just a little too much like the old one? π
Treats and Eats Pet Set $16- I think this is too expensive, but it is really cute!! π
Pet Celebration Set $22- Again, too much like the old one… π
Princess Pet Bed $26- How ADORABLE AND PRETTY!!!! Okay, I think I need a girl pet now π
Funky Pet Bed $26- Β The design makes me a little dizzy π
Dreamy Daisy Pet Bed $26- This is so cute, too! I like that it’s a flower π
Travel Kennel $26- I like the colors of this one π
Now onto MAG Clothing:
Coconut Cutie Outfit $30- I like the skirt and the shoes a lot, but I’m not too fond of the shirt. π
Petals and Plaid PJ’s $24- These are SOO CUTE!! I have to buy these for Clara!!!
School Stripes Dress $28- When I first saw this I instantly thought of Mckenna. I guess it’s the stripes and colors? I do like this outfit, though! Very unique π
Starry Hoodie Outfit $30- I don’t really like those leggings, but I love everything else!! So I guess I could still buy it π
Bright Stripes Outfit $38- OMGOSH!!! I’m SO OBSESSED with this outfit!!!!! It’s a BLAZER!!! I LOVE blazers!!!! I need to buy this!!!! π
Sparkly Camp Outfit $30- This is SO adorable!! Another one that I’m obsessed with, LOL! π
2-in-1 Cheer Gear $48- I don’t care for cheer, but I know that for girls who love it, this set is great for them!
Skateboarding Set $42- I love this set!!! That outfit is TOO cute!!! π
Karate Class Set $38- Again, not into it, but they did a great job at making this! It does look pretty cute on Annika (MAG #55), too! π
Bee Myself Outfit $34- How adorable!!! This would be great for Dolloween π
Now for Doll Furniture and Accessories:
Bouquet Bed & Bedding $38-$213- This is SOOO CUTE!! I seriously love this bed!! And of course it’s over $200 for everything. So sad π
Bouquet Nightstand $58- This is adorable!!! I love all of the little drawers!! π
Sunset Sleepover Tent $85- Wow. Way too much monies! I personally liked the old tent better. Sad they replaced it π
Trail Accessories $38- This is such a cute set!! I really think I need this π
Sunset Sleepover Bag $28- This is pretty cute!
Jewel Highlights Set $15- Why is it called “Jewel”? Β I thought for sure there’d be jewels in it! LOL!
Accent Braid Clips $15- These are adorable, but my mom did make a good point. You could just make those tiny braids yourself in your doll’s hair. π
Camp Treats Set $58- This is SO cute!! I love the food!! Actually, I love everything π
Aqua Earring Tree $10- This is really cute, but I’m blanking out here- didn’t they already have something like this or am I thinking of something else? π
Wrap Watch $8- This is so cute! I am literally dying to touch it!! It looks like that amazing rubber that feels smooth and amazing! I know, I’m weird. LOL!
Violet Heart Watch $8- Now this I would probably buy! That is so cute!
Pets Earrings $10- These are pretty cute! And look! It has my two favorite (new) pets!!
Doodle Earrings $10- Okay, I think Saige wants these! π
3-in-1 Ring Set $8- I NEED to buy these!!!! I can’t tell you how excited I was when I saw these rings!!! I love rings!! π
Doodle Backpack Set $28- I LOVE that backpack and everything that comes with it!! SO cute!!
Now moving on to the Bittys-
Bitty Lambie PJ’s $26- Awwww!! These are so sweet! And you have to go see those slippers cause they have the cutest little faces!! π
Birthday Outfit $20-$48- This is adorable! And I love that little gift!
Pretty Picnic Outfit $26- This is SO cute!!
Picnic Basket Set $30- This is cute, but I really think it should come with more π
Bitty’s Gentle Mouse $30- This mouse is adorable!! I love that little face!
Polka- Dot Day Dress $25- OMGOSH!! I really need this!! The style and colors are all so cute!! π
Sunny Stripes Outfit $26- SO cute!!! Just wondering why it’s a dollar more than the girl’s outfit? Seems kinda weird…
Twins’ Groceries $30- I ADORE this set!! It is so cute!! Look at the pretzel!!!! π
Twins’ Hair Accessories $12- I thought it was cute that they made these for the Bitty Twins! I really like the bow and ponytail holders π
Twins’ Glasses $8- Okay, I think I died when I saw these!! How ADORABLE is that?! I immediately saw Jeremy wearing those black glasses. I might be buying this set π
Now for Isabelle:
Isabelle’s Sparkle Dress $36- This is SOOO PRETTY!!! Although it’s see-through, so my dolls would wear something underneath π Okay, now why would they use the same name “Sparkle Dress” for Isabelle when they already used that for Saige?! That kinda makes me mad… But not super mad… LOL! π
Isabelle’s Makeup Set $36- I think it’s so cool that they made a makeup set!! And it’s SUPER cute, too! π
Now, for what we’ve all been waiting for……
MAG #61 has ARRIVED!!!!! She is absolutely gorgeous!!! I have already seen pictures of her and decided that I’m buying her (when I get the money) and naming her Jenna! A LOT of people think she looks like Saige, but they are a lot different. Saige’s hair is a darker red, she has blue eyes, and freckles. #61’s hair is a brighter red, she has green eyes, and no freckles. Honestly, the only same thing about them is the face mold. And the doll that she really looks like is Felicity. But I’m still gonna buy her because I’m totally in love with her! π
I think that this release was AMAZING!!Β I hope you all enjoyed seeing what I think about everything! I’d love to know what you think, too! π

Fun In The Sun with Friends Photoshoot
So, on the day I got Clara I went over my friend Emma’s house so we could play with our new dolls and stuff. While I was there I took some pictures of Clara and of Emma’s dolls!
Isn’t she SOO adorable in this outfit?!
Clara is just too CUTE!
She’s “Queen” of the Rock! LOL π
“I know you don’t like walking on rocks, but this is a cute picture spot, Clara!” π
My friend, Emma had enough money to buy 2 dolls! She got MAG #33 who she named Sloane and she also got Isabelle! Oh, my, I love Isabelle π
Striking a silly pose π
Clara and Isabelle pose for a picture, too π
Cuties π
Best friends forever <3
Which of these pictures is your favorite?

Mother Knows Best
This is a real conversation my mom and I just had. Get ready to laugh π
It all started when I said something about feeling a little bad for not spending more money on props and stuff for my blog…
Me- I would probably buy the OG camper and bike and car and-
My mom- “Well maybe you should realize that you have enough AG dolls and stuff and spend more of your money on props, backgrounds, furniture, etc.
Me- Well you can never have too much AG stuff so I disagree with that.
My mom- Okay, but you don’t have to buy another doll when you go.
Me- Well, who says I’m gonna buy a doll? We’ll have to see if I have enough money and if there’s one I want.
My mom gives that shocked look π
My mom- Really? So you weren’t planning to buy Clara(she’s the first doll I used for name that doll. We just call her Clara now)?
Me- LOLOL! You know what’s funny? When I said I wasn’t gonna buy a doll I immediately thought of Clara!
Me and my mom- LOLOLOLOL
It just goes to show, mom’s really do know best!!
Does your mom ever just know that you’re gonna buy a doll even if you’re not planning on it?

A Change In Plans
Okay, so you know how I shared my AG Shopping List with you? And how I said I was going to buy Arwen (MAG light skin, layered black-brown hair, brown eyes) because she looked like Jess and it would be cheaper to buy her than a Jess in good condition? Well, today my mom was on the computer (in an AG selling group on Facebook) and she told me that a lady had Jess’s Pajamas and her Meet Outfit (without shoes) for $43 shipped. I told my mom to write “SOLD” on the post and when my mom was messaging the lady she asked if we were interested in buying Jess. She offered the two outfits, Jess’s book, and Jess for $120 shipped!! I’m sure you can imagine my confusion and excitement! I didn’t know what to do! Buy Jess or Arwen. Jess also was given bangs, so that was the only thing preventing me from purchasing her. Then finally I said, “Sold!”
I can’t believe I’m getting her!!! It was such a good deal and I’m VERY excited!!
Doesn’t she look so pretty?! Aside from the haircut she seems to be in excellent used condition!! YAY!!! π
What doll do you want to get next?

My First Doll Rescue~ Part 1
So, today me and my mom were out doing errands and all of a sudden she said, “I have a feeling to go to the Thrift Store.” and I said, “Oh, my gosh, can we go?!” And we stopped off at the Thrift Store!!
We looked through all of the bins and I found a few dolls (not AG). One was an adorable Precious Moments Doll, but I decided not to get her because she would end up just sitting on a shelf and would never get attention. And then I found a Disney Animator’s Collection Rapunzel Toddler Doll! I kinda wanted to get her, but she wasn’t really calling to me. Then I found an 18″ Madame Alexander Doll. She was only $4.99 and I really wanted to rescue her. So when I was checking out the total ended up being $2.70!!! It turns out that all yellow tags were 50% OFF!!
I feel so bad for this doll. She’s definitely “A bit of a fixer-upper” ( π )!
She has big round marks on each of her cheeks. It looks like highlighter to me.
Her hair isn’t in the best condition, but it’s not too bad.
The shirt she’s wearing is from American Girl! Anyone know what outfit this is from?
On a couple of her finger nails there’s what also seems to be pink highlighter.
I took a picture of her Style#. Do any of you know which doll this is?
I’m really excited to have my first doll rescue and to fix her up! I hope I can get her looking nice and pretty again. Well’p, it’s time for me to get to work! π
Have you ever rescued a doll?
