The wait is over. We now know what Lanie, the American Girl GOTY 2010 will look like.

According to the Wisconsin State Journal, the message for this year’s doll is “Go Outdoors”.
Lanie, a 10-year-old from Cambridge, Mass., will be the 2010 Girl of the Year doll for American Girl, Middleton, starting Jan. 1. She is described as a city girl who learns how to have fun outdoors. Through Lanie, American Girl is working with the National Wildlife Federation to encourage today’s girls to improve their health by tearing themselves away from their computer screens and discovering nature.
Now all we have to wait to find out is what her collection will consist of – considering it has been posted that the value of her collection is $559.

Whoa, the thing says 2010. Who on here will say it 2 thousand and 10, or 20 10?
Sallie- I say twenty-ten.
25 more minutes left till 2010 here in Texas! Aaah!
A new decade… wowzers.
sallie~ I’m gonna say it both ways!
But more than likely 20 10.
I think lanie is very pretty and I am already begging for her for my birthday. My mom says she will get her for me since she will only be out for the year and I really want her. I have enough money but I am not a spender so my mom said she will get her for me. Happy New Year everyone!

im doing what i always do when excited- shake lol
omg, it says jan 1, 2010. it looks so futuristic doesnt it? but its not… its present day!!
My friend wont text me back. she ditched me for some other girl. i feel left out =( at least i have all you virtual friends lol
is anyone else getting little stripy things across the ag website?
i didnt really like lanie, so i bought a different doll. now i kinda wish i would have gave her a chance. she is so flipping adorable! i’ll just have to save up some money this summer!!
its kinda strange im the only one on right now, but i guess everyone else is with family. mines asleep! LOL
the bag is actually a lap top bag,
I am so excited I want her… her bunny is so cue too!
Happy New Year!!!
Lanie and her games and all that are on AG, just not the accessories-but I saw the racoon!!
pics are on the homepages too. you cant buy them yet though
its 12:36 here!!
We have snacks and dip and soda and noisy things like noisemakers and pots n pans
Cheetos too, brb i want some!!
priscilla-waaaaaaaaaay back about the birthday card you gave to the bully-good try. And remember-its not fun to bully a nice person, so when u r nice to bullies, they stop.
Okay, well I am getting kind of tired and need my beauty rest. 2010 is gonna be my best year ever. Thats a fact! Talk to you all tomorrow! Dream about Lanie!!
Elle (my nickname i usually go by lol)
i added up all the stuff of Lanie’s that i wanted and it will cost $606 to get everything i want. that’s crazy! hopefully i will be doing a lot of babysitting this summer
HEY PPL!! LANIE’S ON THE SITE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it was funny while i was one it was being updated so i would got to one page and it would be Lanie and the i would go to another and it would be Chrissa. i cant believe Chrissa still has most of her stuff still available.
@ katherine me too lol
I really really really want the camper and my mom said if I paid for half she would pay the rest as a birthday present but they wont ship it to where I live! Grrr … I may just have to go to new york with a big suitcase and fly it home myself!
that is really cool Alice that your mom will do that. my mom says that after i get her today that i need to be saving my money for my SAT tests, college applications, and money for gas and insurance for my car i am going to get soon. but i am going to try to get my dad to get it for me since last year he bought me Gwen, Chrissa’s picnic table, and the picnic accessories for my birthday.
OMG THEY HAVE LANIE ON AMERICAN GIRL AND ALL HER STUFF CLICK MY NAME!
I like her. But I probably should like Lanie more,because I like her personalities
and I like nature,too.
I don’t think Lanie really goes hiking,though. I think that’s why Lanie’s
wearing skirts and shorts. I wonder if Lanie likes great outdoors or
just gardening…
Julie – I didn’t know there was a movie of that. My daughter read the book and said it was so sad – not sure if she’d want to see the movie.
Lanie’s so cute!! I love her bunny lulu!
How much longer will Chrissa’s stuff be available?? And is the Snow Gear no longer back ordered? (I ask cause my mom ordered that and the outfit for me this past Sunday)
Its only 7:04 where I live in California.
REALLY?
IDK sara but u can stilll get it on E-Bay
IS ANYONE HERE?
AHHH LANIE!
happy new year!
