American Girl February Release 2015
I was having a heart-attack last night (not literal, I was just SUPER excited)!!! My dad was asleep in the other room and I was trying SO hard not to yell and scream over everything!! LOL! 😛
***Note: Picture credit goes to American Girl***
Okay, so are you all ready to see this awesome release?! Good! Let’s get started! 😀
Samantha’s Flower-Picking Set $48- This is really cute, but in my opinion, it looks too much like her Meet Outfit. All the colors and all, don’t you think?
Samantha’s Special-Day Dress $32- This is SO CUTE!! I LOVE THE MINT AND PINK! 😀
Samantha’s Travel Coat & Hat $32- Oh. My. Gosh. I can not even type in all caps because I am so dead over this coat. 😀
Samantha’s Travel Bag Set $28- This is adorable!! It’s an adorable little carpet bag!!! I can’t help but think of Mary Poppins. I love carpet bags, thanks to her 😀
Samantha’s Painting Set $36- This is cute, but the easel is way too much like Saige’s 😉
Samantha’s Summertime Treats $45- I love this set!! It’s so cute!! I love the little petits fours and the napkins!! 😀
Samantha’s Outdoor Serving Set $75- This is amazing!! I’ve always loved those serving carts!! 😀 Oh, and this set and the above treats can also be bought as one set for $120 🙂
Samantha’s Gazebo Garden Set $268- OMGOSH!!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!!! IT’S HUGE!!! I really want this!! The Gazebo alone is $200. That’s not bad at all!! I’m positive that I will be buying this someday!
Julie’s Skateboarding Set $48- This is okay, I’m not too fond of the colors 🙂
Julie’s Mix-Print Maxi Dress $28- I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS!!! But wait- why is this only $28 with quite a few accessories, but Samantha’s Coat & Hat is $32? 😛
Modern Fancy Shawl Outfit $48- I love this!! It is so cute and I absolutely adore the red on Kaya! I also really like the white on her! 😀
Kit’s Chicken Keeping Set $48- AWWWWW!!! I totally LOVE this outfit!! And oh my goodness, that chicken looks so soft and sweet and cuddly! 😀
Addy’s Dress & Sewing Set $48- I LOVE the colors of this outfit!!!! And the sewing stuff is super cute, too!! 😀
Rebecca’s Seashore Set $48- I’m sorry, but I don’t really like this. It looks way too modern to me, and those boots literally look like boots that girls wear today. I will say that the chair is cute, though 🙂
Alrighty, ready to move into MAG? Me too!!
Shimmer & Lace Party Dress $30- This is SO CUTE!! I love the color and how lacy it is! 😀
Pretty Plie Ballet Outfit $34- This is cute, but I think it’s funny that they made two ballet outfits right after Isabelle is retired 😛
Pretty Pink Tutu Set $28- Again, it’s cute, but I won’t be buying either of them 🙂 You can also buy both of them in a set together for $62 😉
Boho Beachy Swimsuit $28- YAY! A one piece at last! 😛 I like the colors and design of this, but I don’t really like the ribbons 🙂
Beachy Hair Beads $15- These are okay. They look kinda cheapy and plastic-y in the hair to me 😛
Sunshine Garden Outfit $30- This is SOOO CUTE!! 😀
Sparkly Jazz Outfit $34- I have nothing positive to say about this and I don’t want to offend anyone, so let’s just move on 🙂
Soccer Team Outfit $38- This is kinda cute! I mainly want the soccer ball, though LOL! Clara looks adorable in it, too! 🙂
Sparkle Spa Robe $24- I like this, but I’d rather it be a longer robe 🙂 I love how soft and plushy it looks though! 😀
Sunshine Gardening Bench Set $68- This is adorable!! It made me realize that I don’t have a doll that likes gardening yet! Hmm…. I wonder what doll I want could fit that role…. 😛
Now onto the Bitty Babies!
Pastel Carousel Outfit $26- This is really cute! I love the colors and the style of the shirt! 🙂
Basics Sweet Dots Top $14- This is so sweet! 🙂
Basics Elephant Leggings $10- These are also really cute! I love the ruffle! I wonder why they’re selling them separately, though?
Ribbons & Ruffles Outfit $28- This is so sweet!! My Beth would look adorable in this!! 🙂
Tennis Pro Outfit $34- This is kinda cute 🙂
Hole-In-One Outfit $34- Again, it’s kinda cute 🙂
Now for books!
Danger in Paris: A Samantha Mystery $9.99- Ooooh! This sounds so interesting!!
The Jazzman’s Trumpet: A Kit Mystery $9.99- This one sounds kinda interesting, too! 🙂
The Smuggler’s Secrets: A Caroline Mystery $9.99- Ooooh!!!!! I likey 😀
A Smart Girl’s Guide: Drama, Rumors & Secrets, OH MY (couldn’t help myself LOL!) $12.99- So, yeah, I think the title describes what it’s about LOL! 😛
Drama-rama $9.99- This is a quiz book to go with the book above 🙂
Doll Pets $24.99- THIS LOOKS ADORABLE!! I love this!! 😀
Alright, so that was the entire release (except for the girl’s sized clothes 😉 )!! I am VERY happy with this release!! And A LOT of new items have gone on my wishlist!! I think my favorite item in this release is Samantha’s Gazebo. I can not get over how amazing that is! 😀
What are your thoughts on the release? What was your favorite new item?

P.S. SO sad that Josefina got NOTHING new 🙁

Ginger’s Toy Chest
Hey everyone! My friend, Ginger just recently started a blog where she posts about her dolls and stuffed animals, and possibly a few of her other toys. She is a great writer and her blog is definitely worth taking a peek at!
Join Samantha, Jess, Jessica, and Desiree in the photostory “Samantha’s Showcase”. Will Samantha find her costume before she has to perform?
Ivy and Emily take a trip to Sea World! This was probably my favorite photostory that she’s done. I love how she made the aquariums look so blue. I’ve only been to Sea World once, but I know for a fact that she nailed that look! 😀
So, please head on over to GingersToyChest and leave her a comment! I’m sure she would really appreciate it 🙂 Also don’t forget to vote on who’s pumpkin you like best! 😀

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! 😛
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! 😀

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 😛
“I know you don’t like walking on rocks, but this is a cute picture spot, Clara!” 🙂
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 🙂
Striking a silly pose 😛
Clara and Isabelle pose for a picture, too 🙂
Cuties 🙂
Best friends forever <3

My American Girl Birthday Shopping Spree!
Hi girls! I had such a fun time yesterday at the AG place and spending time with my family! My mom and I left to go to the AG Place at 10:00 AM and got there at about 11:10 AM. We took our time and covered every inch of the place. It was so much fun!! So, let’s begin looking through the pictures!
Online, Isabelle’s Bar & Beam looks kinda big, but it’s actually pretty small! Which I guess it has to be, LOL! 😛
Isabelle’s Pajamas and her cat. I think Isabelle is so much cuter in person!
I love this outfit!! Pictures don’t it justice!
LOOVE THIS SET!! Why is it $64??? UGH! 😕 😛
Pretty Isabelle 🙂
That tutu is cute!
Pretty birthday display 🙂 (I love the doll on the right!)
Look! It’s Annika!! She looks so pretty!! 😀
Okay, can I just say ADORBS?!?!
I LOVE this doll and outfit!!! 😀
This is just such an amazing display!! Can you see all the tiny Easter eggs??
SO CUTE!!!
I can NOT tell you how I excited (and shocked) I was to see the Western Riding Outfit there!! It’s not online anymore, but it was in the store!! YAY! 😀
Just look at how cute that is! 🙂
I love Isabelle’s Coral Sweater 🙂
That is such an adorable hairstyle! I should’ve studied it more 😕
Those two look like they’re having a lot fun 🙂
A cute classroom display 🙂
The other side has the Gala Party Scene! I need to get that someday 😉
I love Isabelle’s Studio! It is so cute! I was a bit disappointed when I saw that the dress form was solid and not squishy…
Julie’s Car is amazing! I think that the doors should open, though 😛
So pretty!! My mom said she’s gonna buy Julie, but I said, “No, you can’t! I’m gonna buy her someday!” LOL! 😛
I think this outfit is really cute!!
And so is this one!! I don’t like the headband, but everything else is adorable 🙂
Oh, gosh! This is also so much cuter in person!
I don’t really care for the colors of this outfit, but the detail is absolutely amazing!
I love Caroline 🙂 (and I need that dress! 😛 )
Her hair looks so pretty!!!
This outfit is just beautiful!
Another ADORABLE Bitty picture! 😀
This set up is really cute!
I LOVE this set!!! I was dying over everything about it! It’s adorable!
I really love this doll! She is so cute 🙂
The new Rainy Day Outfit is so cute! I just really want that coat, but I do not want to pay $24 for it 😛
Here’s me standing in front of Kaya’s section 🙂
Kaya’s Deerskin Outfit. It is actually cuter in person, too. I have just never paid much attention to her which, yes, it’s pretty sad 🙁
I LOVE her horses and her saddle!!
Kaya is so pretty! 😀
Kaya’s Pow Wow Dress of today. She looks so pretty in blue! I also love her tepee 🙂
Trying to find which doll looks perfect! Yep! I bought Kaya!!! 😀
After looking through practically EVERY Kaya doll (No joke!) I finally found the perfect one 😀
I had put too much in my bag, so I had to take some things out. Here’s me trying to decide which outfit to get over the other!
I was trying to decide between the Western Riding Outfit and the Weekend Fun Outfit! It was SO hard to decide!! I had planned to buy the Weekend Fun, but when I saw the Western Riding, I wanted to buy that because I was so sad when it wasn’t available anymore! It was a super hard choice to make, but I finally went with the Western Riding Outfit 🙂
Finally, I was ready to check out 😀
I’m going to give you a list of what I bought as I haven’t taken pictures of everything yet. 😉
1. Kaya Doll and Book
2. Steps High- I had to order her because she was back ordered, but at least I got free shipping 🙂
3. Sparks Flying
4. Frosty Fair Isle Outfit
5. Western Riding Outfit
6. Purple Peacock PJ’s for Kaya 😉
And my mom and dad also gave me two AG outfits!!
1. The Cozy Sweater Outfit (SOOO EXCITED!!)
2. Saige’s Sweater Outfit (YAY!!)
I’m SO happy with all of my stuff! And here are a couple more pictures of me and Kaya:
I opened her in the car and just about died! She is absolutely beautiful and her hair is AMAZINGLY soft! No other doll has hair as soft as hers!
I love her so much!!! 😀
When we pulled into our driveway I put Kaya back in her box, but I decided to be silly and become an American Girl Doll myself! LOL! 😛
Okay, now you all have to see this beautiful cookie cake that my mom made me!!
Look how pretty it is!!! I did not know my mom was so good at cake decorating!! Thank you for making me such a pretty cake, mommy 🙂
I had such a great birthday!! My mom made french toast, hash browns, and sausage for dinner (my FAVORITE breakfast!), then we sat around a bit, played Apples to Apples, and hung out some more! It was SO much fun!
And I want to thank you ALL for the birthday wishes! You’re so amazing and I’m so lucky to have friends like you! 🙂
Look for another post coming later today! 😀

Welcome, Isabelle Palmer!
Happy New Year and Welcome, Isabelle! Although we are very excited about the new Girl of the Year, we are also very sad to see Molly, Emily, and Saige be moved to the archives. They will always be missed 🙁
Anyways, I spent a long time looking through everything in Isabelle’s collection this morning and I finally chose a few things that I like.
Isabelle is a very cute doll and I like her a lot, but I am not planning on purchasing her.
Although in some pictures (like this one) she just looks so pretty and I can’t help imagining her with my dolls! But, no! I need to control myself. I don’t want her, I just think she’s really cute. 😀
Isabelle’s Accessories are very adorable. I love the purse and the arm warmers, but my favorites are the hairpin and the jacket!! The Jacket is SOOO CUTE!! Too bad the girls size is $44 😕
Isabelle’s Metallic Dress is so pretty and cute! I think my “girls” would love this 😀
Isabelle’s Coral Sweater is very cute, too. I love the color and style. I think my “girls” want this, too! But eeks! It’s very see-through, so they would have to wear something under it 😉
Isabelle’s Mix and Match Outfit #4 is so pretty and pink! Pink is my favorite color, so this is kind of perfect for me 😀
Isabelle’s Mix and Match Outfit #15 is cute, but without the Practice Top underneath. I just like the Sweater and Scrunch Pants together 😉
Isabelle’s Dance Barre is really cool! If one of my “girls” was a ballerina they would definitely need this!
WOW! Isabelle’s Studio is absolutely amazing!! I wish they sold the sewing machine and the mannequin by themselves. Hehe! 😛
Be sure to check out everything on American Girl!
Do you plan on buying Isabelle? What do you love most from her collection?
