My daughters and I just got back from Target where we found the most adorable, doll-sized tin lunchboxes in the $1 aisle.
They are even big enough to hold doll lunch!
We only saw them in Coca Cola or Sprite designs, but there may be others. At $1 they were too cute to pass up.
It’s been awhile since I’ve seen Aladdin. Her real outfit is turquoise, not lavender. Maybe I’m thinking of some weird Barbie version . . .
Gala gown has nothing to do with the books.
I loved Addy’s books. I have them all, they are so very sweet.
No, the outfit has nothing at all to do with the stories. I personally don’t like it, but that’s just me. The colors of it are pretty nice, though…

JLY – blond, blue eyes

OK, I’m going to walk dogs now. Bye!
Molly’s books are my favorites. That’s one of the reasons why I’m getting Emily.
Jasmine’s wedding dress is lavender, although it looks nothing like the jazz outfit.
I need to get dressed for the day and start doing something productive. Bye!
I reaalllyyyy wish they would make lizzie’s blue gown!!!! I put her in lissie’s rose garden dress alot, though it isn’t hers. And for pjs I put them in their shifts (??) they came in. cause’ their night gowns just have extra ribbon. What’s the point in paying $24 for that??!!!
so ya, I don’t like lissie’s lavender traveling gown as her meet outfit. the garden outfit was (to me atleast) MUCH more realistic!! And it’s so pretty. And lizzie should come in the blue gown, and have the pink one her party dress, like how emily has her just.. dress, and has the recorder (thingy) dress as her books “main event” dress.
lissie’s gala gown has NOTHING to do w/ her story. I bought it in NYC (not trying to brag) last Thanksgiving, and have never even put it on lissie. *grins sheepishly* only on sam.
Flutophone. Emily plays a flutophone.
Nerdy.
Yes, I am. So what?
I just sent an email to Char with a summer photoshoot! I hope she posts it!
hehe lol. TTYL!
No, I wasn’t talking about you, Lena. I was talking about Emily playing the flutophone.
Oh… yeah…. kinda nerdy. They make horrible noises.
Shopping at AG can be kind of stressful. You have your family breathing down your neck and you’re trying to decide what you’re going to get without breaking the bank. Sometimes in person stuff is uglier (or prettier) than in photos.
Updated List:
Julie & accessories
Emily & accessories
Chrissa (maybe parents will buy her?)
Chrissa’s swimsuit
Emily’s swimsuit
Molly’s swimsuit
sorry I forgot what the FLUTOPHONE was called. oops! It was kinda nerdy. I HATE anything that’s like recorders, especially when you sitting in class full of dum kids laughing and making horrible noises on that.. “instrument” .
My mom enjoys my collecting hobby, so much that she offered to buy me Ivy for my birthday. We saw Ivy in person in NY last year, and my mom fell in love with her.
The real wooden recorder is beautiful. The ones you get in elementary school – now that’s a different story.
Lucky you, Lena. My parents are not big collectors in general, unlike my brother and I. Everything we own, for the most part, is part of a collection. My parents don’t mind the AG dolls, but they will only get them for me for my birthday. I have tried explaining the whole thing to them, but they aren’t really into that sort of thing. My mom and dad didn’t collect much of anything as kids. These days, my dad has well over 2,000 cd’s (a lot, I know) and my mom likes different fabrics and little decorative things she puts around the house. That’s it.
I can’t imagine not collecting all of the things I do.
OK, a totally random question: who likes old houses? I absolutely love them! I live in a very historical town. Most of the houses were built in the 1920′s, but we have so many 1800′s houses, 1700′s houses, and at least one 1600′s house as well. My house was built in 1887 and it is the oldest on the block by one year only (there is an 1888 house right across the street). It is a very simple shingle-style home. Most shingles homes were built between 1880 and 1900 and they were an alternative to the fancy Queen Anne houses being built at the time. Except in parts of New England (, shingles houses are relatively uncommon and it is a very eclectic style. Some are fancy-ish, but most are relatively simple. Additionally, the houses were intended to blend in with the scenery around the structure, as opposed to the eye-popping Queen Anne style. The siding on these homes was usually stained or painted a simple earth-tone. Ours is a brick red.
I think it is New England, anyway.
Do you guys know when your house was built? Just curious.
My parents grew up in communist Poland, so they really couln’t collect anything. My dad doesn’t really care, but my mom has a collection of Ikea furniture in our house, fabric she sews with, cookbooks (hardly used, she cooks from memory) and she supports my dolls collecting (although she does think I’m too old).
2004′s when mine was built…. I hate my house.
I love the old homes, even from WWII. My hometown in Poland is very old (home to one of the oldest wooden churches in Europe) and has such beautiful homes and buildings. My grandma’s home was a rich doctor’s house, and you can still tell by the placement and size of rooms. Of course, now it’s appartments, because of communism, but it still has a very old doctors office feeling. It was built in 1860′s,
My house is from 2002. I live in a suburban area where everything is really new, so we don’t have old houses.
My parents (and siblings) ask me when I’m going to stop buying dolls. They like to tell me I have too many. It gets annoying.
I’m hoping I can get my parents to buy Julie and her accessories for me since they grew up in the 70′s also. If they don’t buy one the dolls, I can’t get three. Wish me luck!
omg i just remembered lissie’s outfit used to be tan with that rose pattern or something, right? not purple! omg!
Time to count money to see how much I can spend at the AG place!
i have $234.
ahh, yes, lena, i LOVE old houses! i used 2 live in 1 in new york built by an irish immigrant in 1830! it was beautiful!
my mom loves me collecting dolls.

Your tooth must hurt pretty bad for a “ow!” that long!
Hi anybody on?
I have read every single one of addy’s books! Have any of you read the clique books with the three girls on the front cover i wanna read Breakfast at Tiffany’s
LOL you guys are funny
uhhhhh IDK if y parents collect anything!!! The closest thing I can think of is my dad’s air force stuff. He used to be a grim reaper (LOL) and fly F-15 s so he has a bunch (OK, a few) of model airplanes. And his flag.. and his helmet!!! I collect dolls and stuffed animals. oh, and most importantly, post cards, even though I haven’t even been to most of the places!! Plus quarters from dif. states.
our Celabration house was built in either 1999 or 2000 ,… I think I was like 4 so IDK. Our house here was finished right when we moved .. so 2006.. I think!!! Some of our air force homes where old, i think.
This is random, and I don’t want to sound spoiled, but I would really like to redec. my room. Right now it’s bubble gum pink, w my art work in my hall.. and a mint green bathr. day bed, lava lamp, etc; etc; I want to redec. black and white, with a sorta winter theme ( quite a few of my paintings are wolf themed, or flowers. or NYC.. or london! )
ya, lily, it hurts soo bad! i am not kidding! aaarrgh! and its hanging on by only 3 strings! so close but yet so far!
Pioneer, take a deep breath – and pull. One moment of pain will spare you several if you let it fall out naturally. This is what i did.
Luckily I lost my baby teeth years ago. I’d say just wait and eat a whole lotta food. Almost all my teeth I lost while i was chewing.
Selena, I just decorated my room and it looks great! And it was CHEAP! The theme is pink + polka dots. Ikea has great ideas! My DREAM theme would actually be brown and pink because those colors look amazing together, but I went for the colors I could find easily. It was really fun, whenever everyone comes in my room, they think its the most cheeriest room in the house because of the light walls. I’d totally want a roxy theme but that would be wayyyyy expensive!
ya WAAAAAAAYYYYYY too expensive!! LOL but that’s pretty cool!!! I only designed my closet hehe!! I have 5 ags in there, a moon chair, vines hanging from the ceiling, my “library” and my movie “collection”,, and cds!!!
about to go to swim practice ttyl!
I lost my baby teeth late. My last one, a canine, came out about a week before my 14th birthday. It is still growing in – I had a gap for the longest time, but I really didn’t mind. I knew a girl who lost all of her baby teeth, molars included, by the time she was in second grade. I remember when I was in second grade and had only lost a few teeth how weird the idea of losing molars seemed! I think lost two teeth in first grade, two in second, and then I didn’t loose any until late fifth grade, which explains why I was pretty late in losing my last one.
Lena, my mom also collects cookbooks, though she rarely uses them for anything other then general inspiration. She makes up Italian-style meals (her grandmother was Italian and, from what I understand, she was an excellent cook) and we eat that almost every night. We are eating at the Moosewood Restaurant in August when we will be in the area. My mom is so excited because she owns several Moosewood cookbooks and has always wanted to eat at their restaurant. I am excited because I love food!
My room is the smallest bedroom in my house (and they had really small bedrooms back then) with the biggest closet (because there was no “master suite” then, either). I love my room. It is directly over 1/2 of the living room and it is the only room with bay windows. The room is a hexagon and the three windows are on three of the walls. The room is very light pink with slightly darker pink trim and the ceiling is white. There are thin lace curtains over the windows with seperate blue gingham curtains over it (on the sides) and separate, smaller different lace curtains draped over the top. My room gets loads of light but the afternoon sun is the best. The room gets a glow when the afternoon sun comes in. I have billy cabinets form IKEA on two walls, but I got them when I was younger and the store doesn’t carry the ones I have anymore. On display on my dresser, desk, bookshelf (top part), and cabinets are my collections; AG dolls, old dolls, rubber ducks, carousel music boxes, TY beanie babies, Russ stuffed animals, awards, bird figurines, animal parts I found in the woods (an antler and a small jawbone being my prized items in that category – and yes, I found them myself in the reservation not far from my house), and my “one thing from every place I have ever been” collection. There are also numerous little items scattered around the room, and antiques can be found everywhere. Everything is very neat. It all makes for a very pretty picture – I wish I could post pictures and show you guys! Oh yeah, there is also a crab apple tree right outside my bay windows and when they bloom in the springtime, the flowers are really close to my room! My room looks sort-of Victorian, or at least old-fashioned, when you look at the whole picture.
My parents don’t think I’m too old for dolls – they say that people of all ages collect all different things. They don’t understand the whole AG thing, but that’s OK. They don’t tell me I have too many, though.
I wish you luck, Lily. My dad was born 1954 and my mom 1960, so they are both older then Julie and Ivy.
I never really re-did my whole room; rather, I changed aspects of it as I got older and my tastes matured (everything in my room was once pink). Originally, I wanted my room to be hot-pink (I was 3 1/2 at the time) but my parents insisted on going with the shades they chose. Then, when I was 10 or so, I went through a huge tomboy stage. I wore boys clothes and didn’t want anything to do with anything that might be considered remotely “girly.” I wanted to paint my room blue, but now I am glad I didn’t. Although I am neutral on the color, it looks fab in my room and I wouldn’t change it.
My house has a white carpet and white walls rule. My room is dark red, cream, and black.
