Irresistible Face
Hello everyone! It’s me, Annika and I’m here to tell you something that happened just this morning…
It was quite a normal day. I was reading a book, Elijah was watching a show, and Samantha was just about to start cleaning (as she always does).
“Eli! What are you doing?” Samantha asked with a disgusted look.
“Whadd’ya mean? I’m watching Spongebob!” Eli replied, he thought it was pretty obvious.
“Look how you’re sitting!! You look disgusting!! Can’t you sit theΒ rightΒ way?” Samantha asked.
“But I’m comfortable!” Elijah protested. He looked over at me and I could tell that Samantha was annoying him.
“Eli, why don’t you actually sit in the chair instead of slouching your entire body in it?” I said and nodded my head “yes” so he would know that I wasn’t teaming up with her, but just trying to make her calm down. With a sigh, Eli changed his position…
But his feet were still on the table. Samantha looked at me and pointed to his feet. “It’s okay, Samantha.” I said and she started cleaning.
After a little while I thought I heard a strange yelp. “What was that?” I asked. “Hm. I dunno! Probably one of the neighbor’s dogs.” Eli replied.
Then Kaya walked in the room saying, “Come on, it’s okay! Good boy!”
It was a little puppy!! Oh, what a sweet face!
Me and Elijah got up immediately, but Samantha didn’t even notice that a dog was in our bedroom. “Kaya, where did this dog come from?” I asked.
“When I went outside to get the mail I saw him just walking in the street. He was all alone, so I brought him inside with me.” Kaya explained. Oh dear! A stray dog with no collar!! Mommy was not gonna be happy.
“Kaya, you can’t just bring a stray dog into our house!” I was going to say more, but then the little puppy walked over to us and Eli started petting him. Uh-oh! He can’t start bonding with him!
“Elijah, stop petting him! He probably won’t be staying and if you bond with him it will be even harder to leave him.” I tried to explain, but he just continued petting and talking to the puppy.
By now, Samantha had noticed a dog was in here. “Oh, my gosh!! Kaya what did you do?! We can’t have a dog!! I need to get mommy!” Samantha said. She freaks out a lot π
Then he looked up at me with those adorable little puppy eyes. How could I not pet him? He was one of the cutest dogs I had ever seen! “Aww, good boy!” I said as he licked my hand.
“Eli, you know mommy probably won’t let him stay, right?” I said.
“Why not?” Eli asked.
“Because we already have a kitten, two horses, and two foals. Plus there’s all of us she has provide for. It would be a lot to take in a puppy.” I explained.
“All right, what’s this Samantha tells me about a pupp-” Mommy paused when she saw us with the puppy. We all waited for her to speak. “Kaya, you can’t bring in a stra-” She paused again as she looked at his face.
“Eli, I know how much you want a dog, but- well-” She sighed. “I’m gonna go get a box.” Mommy said.
“What for?” We asked in unison.
“For the puppy. He’s gonna need a bed to sleep in.” She replied with a smile. Apparently she couldn’t resist his face either!
Eli couldn’t be happier!! He finally had his own dog! Pepper is the perfect dog for him! π
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yep! I got Pepper and the Pet Hiking Set when they went on sale on Jill’s Steals & Deals for about $12 or $15!! I have wanted him for awhile and I’m very happy to have him! He is my first AG Pet π
Do your dolls have any pets?
~Jaclynn~
That was such a fun story!!! I like Pepper the best of all the My AG pets they’ve ever sold. π My dolls have cats, but Josefina really wants her goat. π
I have a question about Pepper: when he came, did he have a huge tag on him? Because I thought I once saw a My AG pet that did, except for when I went to the AG store, there were no tags on the My AG pets. But I kinda figured they took them off for display.
Thanks so much! Yeah, same here! He’s so adorable! π
Aw, well, I hope she can find her someday!
Yes, he did! It was ridiculous!! But I cut it off, because it was driving me crazy π
Yeah, they probably took them off π
~Jaclynn~
Yeah, I hope so too. Did you see Throwback Thursday on Doll Diaries? Someone sent in the CUTEST photo of Sombrita! Oh, and speaking of which, what did you think of the photos that I sent in? π
I thought they did!! I saw a video of someone opening Meatloaf, and there was this ridiculously long tag. And I have seen other videos of agoverseasfan opening AG items, and the tags that are on these tiny things are unheard of!! π
Yes, I did! That picture of her was ADORABLE!!
I thought they were cute! The thing about her skirt still boggles me, though. Where did you buy her? Oh, and is the lace part of the skirt?
I know! Even on my horses Sparks Flying and Steps High! Their tags are SO big! I really need to cut them off π
~Jaclynn~
I know!! I love Josefina. <3
My mom bought her for me for Christmas of eBay. And yes, the lace part is part of the skirt. I just can't understand what the outfit is!!! Unfortunately, no one said anything about the outfit on Doll Diaries. I guess they didn't know anything about it. π
Oooh! Well, what if the skirt was handmade by the seller?? Or is there a tag on the skirt that says PC?
Yeah, people don’t really answer questions anymore π I guess that’s why I like to answer questions π
~Jaclynn~
Congratulations! I love when I come across a good deal, especially when it come sto American girl π
That is so cute!! I want to get an actual AG pet, but right now we have a dog, but it’s not really to their size, it’s a pug, but it’s kkinda too big! haha! π
I want to get Marie-Grace’s dog, Argos! π
You should see my ST. Patrick’s day party on my blog, it’s about my dolls dog! π
-Tg
Awww! Pepper is SO CUTE! So glad you got him! π
My dolls have, uh, let’s see, Honey(MAG), Cooper(Mckenna), Penny and Patriot, although my doll’s cousins board Penny and Patriot at their farm, π uh, An old Coconut from 2008 (he still had that adorable collar on! π ) that’s all I can remember right now. The one I have my eye on next is Chocolate, he is so adroable! But he is more expensive now that he comes with the service dog thing. I wish they still sold him seperatly. π
~Lydia~ <3
AWWWW! He’s so cute! No wonder they couldn’t resist him π
Wow, Samantha is very… clean, better than being messy I guess π
I actually have Pepper myself, he just arrived today along with some other stuff I ordered from AG, and he has the sweetest face! And he’s so much bigger than my other AG pets. As for my others, I have Coconut, Praline, and Meatloaf π
~Carli
Hehe! Yeah, he has such an adorable face π
LOLOL! I know! I made her personality be like my older sister π
Aw, that’s awesome! π
~Jaclynn~
LOL! She kinda reminds me of Julie, I made her personality be like my friends sister π
~Carli
That’s funny!! Well, maybe it’s my sister you made her be like, LOLOL! I’m just kidding π
~Jaclynn~
Congrats! I have had Pepper for 3 years and I love him : )
Aww…. so sweet! I have Pepper, Licorice, Sombrina, and Nutmeg. They are all so cute!
Cute!:) I love Pepper!
My dolls have 2 pets. Nicki has Sprocket and Molly has a little toy dog I found at a fair called Benny. Kirsten pet-sat my brother’s toy cat, Benson, over Christmas, too.:)
My coconut had a tag as well…. Huge! Anyway, I LOVE that kata dress ! If you put that on your etsy shop, I would shurly get that for my sisters kaya.
Yes, the tags are ridiculous!
Thank you so much! I actually plan to add that to my Etsy shop soon, so keep watch! π
~Jaclynn~
Jaclynn-well, both parts of the outfit say made in China for Pleasant Company. The only idea I had was that maybe they sewed on tags to a handmade outfit!! That didn’t really make any sense. π
Yeah, I like to answer people’s questions, too.
Well, it is possible that they did that. I mean if you can’t find anything anywhere that looks exactly like that skirt, then it was probably homemade, right? It’s so confusing π
~Jaclynn~
Yeah, I don’t know. That’s why I wanted someone on DD to tell me if AG ever made a slightly different meet outfit for Josefina. Or, if they never made it. Oh well.
Awwwwwww…….sooooo cute π
I have Coconut (Shayne’s), Licorice (Felicity’s), and Sugar (Natalie’s). I also have a Madame Alexander horse from Wal-Mart. She is brown with black hair and her name is Diamondfire. This horse is mostly Felicity’s, but she shares her. π I’m glad you got Pepper. I wonder why AG discontinues certain doll combinations and pets like that just so they can get new ones. That’s kind of silly, and sad.

this is cool…. when will you do that photo story you were talking about in “anika tells whats going on”?
Thank you!
Well, there has actually been a change in plans and I’m going to do a different photostory series instead. I know you will all LOVE it! π
~Jaclynn~
Lol!! Thanks for making me giggle! Congrats on your new pup!
LOL! Well, you’re welcome! And thank you! π
~Jaclynn~
Congrats!Meatloaf looks adorable.I’m planning on getting Coconut.She’s so adorable too.
Yay!! He is so cute. π

Thank you! π
~Jaclynn~
Samantha sounds like me, a total neat freak. π Seriously, it freaks me out when our house is messy, and it’s so hard to keep it clean with 4 brothers! π π
I have almost all the JLY/MAG pets, and pepper is definetly one of my favorites π
Great photo story!! You are really good at writing, and the pictures were great!!
– Emmaly
That’s awesome! And yeah, Pepper is my favorite π
Aw, thank you so much! π
~Jaclynn~
Aw, I’m glad Eli got to keep Pepper.
And my dolls do have pets: Honey, Praline, Gingersnap, and Lucy. π
Me, too π
Oh, that’s great! π
