Happy birthday Saige!

I totally forgot that Saige's birthday was yesterday!!! 
 I'm such a bad "Mom"... xD


I've had dear Saige for 2 years now.
That's just crazy.
I remember when I first opened her. It seems like yesterday...
It was after I was at my cousins house. My Dad had a surprise for me when he came to pick my siblings and I up. I was already expecting the AG package but I thought that I'd have to wait to open it when I got home. But it turns out that my Dad had brought her with him in the car when he was picking us up. We were driving home and that's when I first got a peak at her and opened her sweater outfit. 
It was midnight when we finally got home but I didn't care! 
I was almost falling over because I was so tired when I opened her. She brought a huge smile to my face! 
She was the prettiest thing that I had ever seen... 
She was so much prettier in person then in those stock photos.
I felt like the happiest girl in the world!
My sisters were almost as excited as I was when I showed her to them the next day!
I was just so happy to have her.
She was really special to me because first, she was my first doll, but also because I paid for her myself and I felt like I had accomplished something so great.

Thank you so much Saige. 
You have brought so many smiles to my face and you still do. :)

And just for kicks, here are a few old photos of the girls.
They are the very first ones that I have ever taken for my blog. xD







No comment... xD
You can tell that I have gotten so far photography wise since.


Well, happy birthday Saige. ^_^

My sister's dolls.

Hello everyone! 
So I know that a couple of dolls have just randomly popped up in my past posts and I just thought that I'd introduce to you those dolls!
Today I will be introducing to you one of my sister's dolls.
 I have 3 other sisters and today I will be introducing to you my sister Elise's doll. 
She actually has two dolls, but "Sandilyn" is not in shape right now to have pictures taken of her. She is a Nicki doll actually, and her leg fell off... And thanks to the previous owner her hair is as straight as a stick instead of fluffy and curly so she is planning on sending her off to the AG doll hospital soon.
 So once she is all better I will definitely introduce you all to her! 
But meanwhile I will be introducing to you her other doll.

This, is Delilah.


Let's get started shall we?

Full name: Delilah Shay. (Shay is her middle name)
Type of doll: She is a MAG from AG and she is #44.
Personality: 
Delilah is a extrovert, she's really enthusiastic about everything, her sense of style is um... Lets just say... Interesting... (But the outfit she is wearing sorta describes the type of outfits she usually does wear, just imagine more vibrant colors.)
Something that definitely defines her personality is her glasses. If she had no glasses she would not be the type of girl that she is.  
Favorite color: Purple
Fun fact: My sister went to the Dallas AG store intending on buying another doll but bought her unexpectedly when my Mom suggested her and she doesn't regret it buying her over the other doll. Also, when naming her one of the choices was the name Shayla.
 (I suggested for her to name her Delilah. xD )
And she got her the same day that I got Mae. November 27, 2013.


 I've noticed that Delilah has added so much variety to our doll collection. 
She's just super pretty and I really can't imagine her not having her here!



Also for anyone out there who is thinking of getting this doll my sister highly recommends her! 
"Her eyes are gorgeous, and anything you put on her she'll look stunning in."
And her hair is surprisingly easy to maintain! If you know to do it it's super easy.
And my sister says for rating this doll 1-10 she's a 9. 


Well thanks so much for reading!
Delilah will definitely be joining a lot more of my posts now!
If you enjoyed this make sure to let me know! I'm planning on introducing to you my other sister's dolls sometime soon so make sure to stay tuned for that! 

Also, I'm super close to 50 followers! Thank you all so, so, much. It means a ton to me. 
And yes I will be doing a giveaway once I reach my goal. I'm thinking of doing a photo contest actually. Any thoughts?
Also I will be updating the "My dolls" page with more questions like favorite color, age, and more questions like that so you all can get to know my dolls better!
Also comment down below if you all want me to do a whole post with a more detailed introduction of my dolls with questions like these. 

'Till Wednesday!

Dreamy Day bed review

Hello everyone!
So I did some online shopping on Ebay about a week ago, and guess what I got?
I got the dreamy day bed and bedding!


It just came yesterday and I have been playing with it since.
I was really disappointed when I saw that the dreamy day bed was retiring from AG because I had really wanted it but I never had the chance to get it.
 I decided to look on Ebay and see what I could find. I found a really good deal on it! I got the bed and bedding. The only thing that wasn't included in the bedding was the little pink flower pillow.

NEW-American-Girl-Dreamy-Bedding-Set-For-Dolls-Daybed-Sheets-Pillows-Comforter
(Far right pillow)

I don't really mind that it's missing really. I just liked the bed itself. But the bedding was a nice bonus. ^_^
I got such a great deal on it! The bed cost $85 with free shipping.
Now it does have a few flaws but barely any that are noticeable.
The bed itself with the mattresses when AG sold it was $95 plus the bedding which was around $30 or so. I don't remember the exact price.
So this was a super good deal!
Now I can finally have all my dollies sleep all at once. ^_^
I also really wanted this bed because it would be better for photos, photo stories, etc. lighting wise.

Okay, so enough talk now on to the review!


Here is a overview of everything that I got with this purchase.

The bed,
two mattresses,
two pillows,
two sheets,
and one reversible comforter.

The reason why this bed caught my eye is because it's a trundle bed! I have one myself and I just love the beds even more now that I have it in doll size. ^_^





And here in the photo above I am comparing the bed and one of my dolls together so that you all can get a feel for how big this bed is.

One of my favorite things about the bedding is the comforter! I love that it is reversible.
And by the way, the little stuffed animal does NOT come with the bedding.



Overall I definitely recommend this bed set! 
If you get the chance to get it you really should. It's great quality, I love the cute details, and it has a ton of play value. It's very sturdy and doesn't show any sign of it breaking easily. (If you accidentally step on it it probably would) The bedding is super cute and I absolutely love the colors! 
If you ever get the chance to get this bed, you should definitely get it! 
You won't be disappointed!

Thanks for reading! 
If you have any questions about this bed comment it down below! I'd be more than happy to answer them.
Till next week! ^_^

It's "True"!

Yes! It is FINALLY here. Truly Me was just released today, May 21, 2015.
I woke up and I realized that it was the 21 so I seriously jumped out of my bed and grabbed the laptop to check. I was so excited to see this before my eyes.

It's so beautiful...


There it is... 
I love the colors... xD But the meet outfits are still ugly...


On another note:
 It is my pleasure to introduce to you these lovelies.






THEY ARE SO CUTE.
I love all of them. Especially this new cutie...
They definitely needed more short haired dolls and I think that she is the perfect one.
I am sooo excited...

I am also pleased to announce that the three dolls that were supposed to be retired are still available!
Which is AWESOME. 
Whew. That's a relief for a lot of you huh? xD

And check what they come with along with all of the other TM dolls!


It looks like a craft that you can do.
I'm just not sure what kind of stuff you do with it.



When buying a doll you have this option on buying the "love to layer" accessories and when doing that you save $5 on your order.


Here are some of the new outfits and accessories.


My favorite new outfit is the "Flamingo beach dress" It's so cute.
They also have a hammock for the dolls now!





They also have a little deal on the pets. You "Save $5 when you order any pet, pet bed, and collar."
Just thought that I'd let you all know. ^_^


Well thanks so much for reading! Are you as excited for Truly Me? Or the opposite? 
Comment down below which new doll is your favorite! 
There was SO much to see I didn't take pictures of everything so make sure to hop on over the the AG site where you can see all of the new things!
Also, I would like to apologize that I haven't posted at all this past week. I've just been so busy.
I'll still have a post up for Friday so be on the lookout for that.
Thanks for reading!

P.s. I have a new poll up! Vote on if  you like the new Truly Me line or not!

My wishlist - 2015

So for this post I'm going to show you all the dolls and other items that I want.
So it's basically my wishlist. :)
Also please keep in mind that I'm most likely not going to get all of these things that I list. This is just a "Wish" list. So please no comments that I'm spoiled or I expect to get all of this. Not that any of you have said anything like that before but just in case. :) 
Thanks. 

Dolls

Here's a list of the dolls that I have my eye on right now!
They are in order of who I want to get first before the other. (if that made any sense)


I'm planning on getting Grace sometime this year. (Obviously XD )


This is MAG #47
I already have a name picked out for her but I won't reveal it till I get her. ;)
And I'm planning on getting her sometime next year.

This is MAG #30.
I don't have a name picked out for her yet, but I have a few in mind.
And I'm not really sure when I will get her. I don't know if I will be getting her next year because I don't know who the next GOTY is but if I don't want the GOTY 2016 I'll get her. ^_^


Clothes

Moving on to clothes.
I don't really have a big list of clothes that I want to get for my dolls at least from AG because their prices are getting way too expensive and I can sew clothes for my dolls! If I do decide to ever buy clothes from AG it would most likely be from a GOTY collection.
Other then that I will just sew clothes or buy them from Etsy shops.
It's a whole lot cheaper that way.

But here are a few items that I really like that are from Etsy!

Not my photo

This is a outfit from CircleCSewing
She has adorable outfits for AG dolls! This one is one of my favorites from her shop.
It's perfect for Summer. 

Seersucker Button Up Skirt for American Girl Doll
Not my photo

This is a skirt from Polkadot123 on Etsy.
It's so adorable! I fell in love with it when I first saw it!
I especially love the color. ^_^

These are shorts from Closet4Chloe.
I mean who doesn't love pineapples?
These are just super cute. 

Steampunk Owl 18 Inch CROP TANK TOP for American Girl Doll

This is another item from Closet4Chloe.
It's so adorable. I just love owls...

White Strap Dress with Front Pin Tucks for American Girl and similar 18 inch dolls

This is a dress from Maddiesgirls
I just absolutely love this dress! It's super cute and ugh. It's just super cute... XD

American Girl Clothes - Custom Graphic Tee - Grey, Perfect is Boring, Tank Top, Separates
Not my photo

This is a shirt from LoriLizGirlsandDolls.
Amelia would look just perfect in this shirt! 
It would look perfect with a cardigan.

American Girl Clothes - Skater Skirt, Coral, Separates, Bottoms, Mini
Not my photo

I love this skater skirt. It is from LoriLizGirlsandDolls as well.

Trust me,
I could list SO many more items that I love but here's just a taste of what I like/wish was on my dolls.
XD

I don't really have my eye on any accessories at the moment... I pretty much have a love/hate relationship with AG accessories because they are SUPER cute, but you can lose them really easily... XD
So yeah! Hope you enjoyed that! ^_^
Thanks for reading!
What are your top 3 things that you want? AG related or non-AG related.
