Scoop – First Pictures of Rebecca Rubin – American Girls’ Next Historical Doll

American Girl doll new historical Rebecca Rubin

Thank you Madison, a Doll Diaries reader, for sharing a scan of a mailer she received announcing the debut of Rebecca Rubin, the next historical doll from American Girl.

She definitely is pretty and while she has some similarities to Samantha, she is truly beautiful and unique. Her story sounds very exciting – she is a Russian Jewish immigrant living in a row house on the lower east side in New York City in the early 20th century. She dreams of being an actress but her family has other ideas. I may be reading the books before my girls do! ;-)

She will come with 6 books:

Check out more details on Rebecca debut activities at AGPNY

UPDATED!!! Madi sent me more photos of the book covers as well as the one-chapter preview booklet (chapter name A Sabbath Surprise).

  16. Gale on March 24th, 2009 11:02 am

    I think she’s kinda ugly. Or it could just be that picture; AG isn’t known for having the best pictures of things…

    It’s nice to know what she’ll look like now, though. Even if it is only the book illustration. I hope she doesn’t have the Josephina mold, either.

  17. Lena on March 24th, 2009 11:03 am

    Josefina.
    And yeah, I hope she has the original mold or the Kaya mold (wich won’t happen).

  18. Lena on March 24th, 2009 11:05 am

    Lol, we were discussing on AG Playthings the horribleness of AG’s photography, like the foating saddles, Patriots “titanuim” legs, or Sonali’s horrible bug eyes.

  19. lieu on March 24th, 2009 11:09 am

    Thanks for posting. We will be getting her.

  20. Gale on March 24th, 2009 11:20 am

    Yeah, Lena, I read those, too! This has leaked and is all over the forums, is that OK? It’s not cross posting? I guess since it’s up on the main site, it’s free game? Char? :?

    I’m just upset cause I was trying to be a good girl and not cross post, when I could have been the one to start the topic on AGFMB. :(

    :)

  21. Gale on March 24th, 2009 11:21 am

    Why does my comment have to be moderated? Because I put smilies in it?

  22. Lena on March 24th, 2009 11:22 am

    yeah, they go into moderation if they have smilies.

  23. Lena on March 24th, 2009 11:23 am

    Yeah, free game.

  24. Char on March 24th, 2009 11:25 am

    Gale – unlike the forums where cross posting is frowned upon, I have no problem with anyone posting information they find on Doll Diaries at any other site – as long as they LINK BACK to the original post. I’d rather you not post the actual photos, but the way it has been posted at the forums today is perfect!

    It just helps the over all traffic levels here and that works for me!

    Thanks again to Madi for sharing the photo so we could all get a glimpse at Rebecca. I LOVE my Doll Diaries readers (but I have told you all that before!)

  25. Lena on March 24th, 2009 11:28 am

    Reminds me of something. Char, when I get my Ellowyne, would you like me to send you a review of her?

  26. Char on March 24th, 2009 11:29 am

    Lena – that goes without saying — uh, YES! I love getting photos, reviews, and scoop on all dolls all the time – there’s only one of me and it is impossible for me to have input on every doll.

  27. Lena on March 24th, 2009 11:32 am

    Ok! My mom said I can have her, and I’m going to FOA Schwarts to get her this weekend, so I’ll send it to you some time in the next two weeks.

  28. madison on March 24th, 2009 11:39 am

    Glad u lik t

  29. Lena on March 24th, 2009 11:43 am

    I just noticed, I meant FAO Schwartz.

  30. AG FAN on March 24th, 2009 12:13 pm

    she is so pretty! where did you get that pic madison?

  31. Lani on March 24th, 2009 12:14 pm

    Thanks Madi and Char, you guys are the best!

  32. priscilla on March 24th, 2009 12:23 pm

    ag fan,she said it was from a booktore.

  33. priscilla on March 24th, 2009 12:24 pm

    oh,actually,i think she said her mum works for the bookstore,and they sent it to her,but i’m not fully sure.

  34. Lena on March 24th, 2009 12:28 pm

    Her mom’s a bookseller, I think, that’s how she got it.

  35. Marcia on March 24th, 2009 12:33 pm

    Yay! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

  36. AG FAN on March 24th, 2009 12:50 pm

    oh right, thanks priscilla.
    i told my mum and she said i might be able to get her. i love her hair

  37. AG FAN on March 24th, 2009 1:03 pm

    i am so excited now that i have seen a pic of her. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU MADI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  38. Lena on March 24th, 2009 1:14 pm

    I’m still waiting for a pic of the doll herself.
    *crosses fingers* Please not the Josefina mold!

  39. Marcia on March 24th, 2009 1:14 pm

    I wonder if anyone else will get that pamphlet thing Madi got?

  40. Marcia on March 24th, 2009 1:15 pm

    I hope it isn’t the Josefina mold too, Lena. I wonder what mold it will be? I hope we see the doll soon.

  41. Lena on March 24th, 2009 1:17 pm

    I’m hoping for either the original, Kaya, or Sonali mold.

  42. AG FAN on March 24th, 2009 1:37 pm

    i am not trying to be mean but i think it could be the josefina mold. why do you not want it to be the josefina mold? do you not like it?

  43. Marcia on March 24th, 2009 1:38 pm

    If it’s the Josefina mold, she might just look like Marisol with lighter skin.

  44. Marcia on March 24th, 2009 1:40 pm

    And I usually don’t like the dolls with the Josefina mold as much.

  45. AG FAN on March 24th, 2009 1:53 pm

    i think josefinas face is cute

  46. AG FAN on March 24th, 2009 2:04 pm

    anyone on?

  47. priscilla on March 24th, 2009 2:07 pm

    joesfina is very cute! my neighbor that moved away had her! why don’t you like her?

  48. priscilla on March 24th, 2009 2:07 pm

    joesfina is very cute! my neighbor that moved away had her! why don’t you like her?

  49. priscilla on March 24th, 2009 2:07 pm

    oops,i did’nt mean to post that twice,sorry.

  50. Lena on March 24th, 2009 2:15 pm

    They just spew it out too much. 6 dolls in the last 4 years with that mold?
    I’d prefer something different.

  51. Lena on March 24th, 2009 2:17 pm

    BTW, I want Josefina, but she (and eventually Julie) will be the only two I’ll get with that mold. And Rebecca if she has it, but I’m not so sure i’ll like her as much.

  52. Selena on March 24th, 2009 2:17 pm

    THX MADI!!!!! wait, lena are u going to NYC this weekend to FAO Schwartz???? (I went there in November – SO coo!! that would be amazing to have a b-day party there…)

  53. AG FAN on March 24th, 2009 2:19 pm

    hi selena…

  54. AG FAN on March 24th, 2009 2:21 pm

    i never knew julie had the josefina mold. do you think i should get the mini josefina?
    madi, on your blog, you said you were going to put a pic of the book every day. are you still going to do that. just wondering…….

  55. Lena on March 24th, 2009 2:25 pm

    Selena, I live in FL. I only go yo NY once a year.
    That said, I’m going to the one in Tampa, cause they closed the one in Orlando.

  61. madison on March 24th, 2009 3:57 pm

    My mom owns a kids bday party place and WANTED to sell books so we get the cat.

  62. Heidi on March 24th, 2009 4:14 pm

    I like her so much! She looks just like what I hoped her to be.

  63. sarah on March 24th, 2009 4:16 pm

    ooooo! Thank you Lena! I always get mixed up! To be honest, I never new that there were different molds although I had noticed they were different, so I’m not totally dumb *wink wink*. I think the mold looks beautiful on Elizabeth, although it wouldn’t look to great on what I picture to be the Rebecca doll!!

  64. Peyton on March 24th, 2009 4:27 pm

    Aww she’s so pretty i hope thats her meet outfit

  65. Starr on March 24th, 2009 4:28 pm

    Sorry for all the exclamation points, I won’t put too many, but
    OMG!!!
    this is such a breakthrough and i’m so spazzed about this!!! Is it okay if i put this pick on my blog??

  66. Antha 32 on March 24th, 2009 4:31 pm

    she is very cute. i think it would be awesome if her meet outfit was a coat. she would be the first!!!!!

  67. madison on March 24th, 2009 4:41 pm

    ya it’s fine starr

  68. Peyton on March 24th, 2009 4:50 pm

    madison i saw the rest of ur pics… (of rebecca)
    where did you get that paper with all the booooks>???

  69. madison on March 24th, 2009 4:58 pm

    my mom wanted to sell books at her buisness place but decided not to but we still get the catologs.

  70. Peyton on March 24th, 2009 5:01 pm

    cool! are there any pics of her in dolly form?????

  71. madison on March 24th, 2009 5:06 pm

    no. :(

  72. Caitlin on March 24th, 2009 5:33 pm

    That is soooo amazing!!!! I am totally getting her, unless the doll form sucks ha ha. I don’t think it will though. I’m glad they made another Jewish doll, they had too many Christian ones. I will definitely read her books though because they look so good! They remind of the Dear America book “Dreams in the Golden Country: the Diary of Zipporah Feldman, a Jewish Immigrant Girl”. It’s one of my favorite books in that series. I totally love to act too, so I know I will relate alot to her. I like stage acting much more than camera acting I believe. I think it would be weird to act in front of a camera and crew, I like the feel of the stage and the audience right there!!

  73. Caitlin on March 24th, 2009 5:34 pm

    I can’t wait to buy her!!! But I’m not sure if I want to get Sonali or Chrissa or both. I love Sonali but not Chrissa so much….help!!

  74. Lena on March 24th, 2009 5:37 pm

    If you don’t like Chrissa, don’t get her.

  75. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 5:37 pm

    Caitlin r u still on? or any1??

  76. Char on March 24th, 2009 5:40 pm

    Madi sent me some more photos of the booklet! Scroll up to the post to see the additional three photos of the book covers and sample chapter.

  77. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 5:41 pm

    I like Chrissa. She looks like me.
    I have 2 other dolls: a JLY With brown hair, blue eyes, freckles, and Nellie
    who is TOTALLY AWESOME!

  78. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 5:42 pm

    OMG Char just before you posted that I scrolled up!

  79. sallie on March 24th, 2009 5:51 pm

    That’s neat. And I like the Josefina face mold, too. Nellie has that mold,
    and of course Nellie is TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!

  81. Lena on March 24th, 2009 6:13 pm

    BTW, I love her clothes!!

  82. Antha 32 on March 24th, 2009 6:27 pm

    okay chaged my mind im getting rebecca unless she’s not a pretty doll. i love acting and all the arts. i am now very very excited!!!!!!!!!!

  83. Holly on March 24th, 2009 6:53 pm

    she is so awesome!!!! i love her!!

  84. Caitlin on March 24th, 2009 6:56 pm

    I know what you mean Lena. The new Nellie looks nothing like the old Nellie. They made her more pretty and marketable. The same with Elizabeth. She originally had brown hair and eyes. If you look at the older book she does, and the new hair color on her just doesn’t look right in the illustrations they had to fix. I do like the doll though also. Sorry Sallie, I was doing homework!!! It’s difficult to get on and talk with everyone because I’m on the west coast and you guys are all like, two or three hours ahead and I go off and do something, then come back and am all, “Oh no, they’re all at dinner or are in bed!!!!” I’m definitely getting Rebecca though, I hope she has a cute pet!

  85. Lena on March 24th, 2009 7:03 pm

    I know, I’m old enough to have read the old books. BTW, I go to sleep at like midnight east time, so I’m free to talk.

  86. Lena on March 24th, 2009 7:11 pm

    She has cats, form what I’ve heard….. way back in December……

  87. sharon on March 24th, 2009 7:17 pm

    Doesn’t Chrissa have the Josefina mold?

  88. Caitlin on March 24th, 2009 7:17 pm

    Fun!! I like the AG cats!!! Cats also make sense because they are smaller and easier to keep than dogs for where she is living. Ugh, I am working on a huge 12 page research paper for my english class due Friday. I have 10 pages done and am adding more. 12 is the max it can be. It’s about the author John Steinbeck. BORING!! Thank goodness for dolldiaries!!

  89. Lena on March 24th, 2009 7:18 pm

    Hee hee, seeing all those little pyramid writing things like Kiah just did brought back memories of sixth grade. My teacher used to make us do those for all of our spelling lists. Well, one time we had the word “assistance” or something like that, and when we got to the third one we all started laughing and giggling and making a big deal like the kids we were, but it was still funny!! Oh, hey, is anyone going anywhere for spring break? Ours is next week!

  93. Lena on March 24th, 2009 7:34 pm

    Nope, I’m working my butt off.

  94. Lena on March 24th, 2009 7:37 pm

    Hurhur, this is a random time to put it up, but Chapter Thirty One is up.

  95. Caitlin on March 24th, 2009 7:43 pm

    I’m sorry Lena!! I’m a little miffed because all my friends are going cool places, like Arizona, Hawaii, Disneyland, the Caribbean, and leaving me here alone!! We may drive down to Cannon Beach, Oregon though. I love it there, it’s so pretty, and we could take our doggies too!!!

  96. Lena on March 24th, 2009 7:47 pm

    Well, if it means anything, I work in Disney. Although it’s different if you see in “behind the magical pixie dust” as my friend says it.
    But I’m not going anywhere for spring break.

  97. Caitlin on March 24th, 2009 7:52 pm

    Oh my goodness, it’s raining SO HARD here!!!! It’s like a torrential downpour!!! I actually like it when it rains though, it’s kind of pretty and soothing. I like it best when it’s sunny out and it rains and it’s all sparkly and then there’s a rainbow!!!

  98. Caitlin on March 24th, 2009 7:53 pm

    I love Disneyland and Disneyworld!!!! I’ve only been to Disneyworld once in second grade, but I’ve been to Disneyland 15 times because it’s closer and my family is obssessed!!! Where do you work and what do you do?

    Thanks Priscilla. You smiled too when you saw a new chapter too, huh?

  103. Lena on March 24th, 2009 8:10 pm

    Well, I found out “Mezza Morte” isn’t how it’s spelled. So the book will be called “Mezza Morta” when and IF I publish, but I’m too lazy to change it now.

    Also, google “Mezza Morte” it’s the first one that comes up!!!!

  104. sarah on March 24th, 2009 8:11 pm

    Cool Lena!!! My uncle worked at D-land when he was in college or something, he worked in the old submarine ride that was there a loooong time ago, I’m pretty sure its the finding nemo ride now. I bet to younger kids working at D-land would be like an amazing dream, but when you actually have to work there, I bet its not that exciting, am I right? Especially for the people who have to pick up trash and clean the blah on the rides, but luckily you don’t do have to do that. My mom wants my bro to go apply at Knotts Berry Farm, but he’s a bit hesitant, lol

  105. priscilla on March 24th, 2009 8:11 pm

    omg i just saw a rebecca book on amazon called rebecca just for fun!!! i wonder what it’s about?

  106. Lena on March 24th, 2009 8:11 pm

    Wait, I’ll find it for you…

  107. Lena on March 24th, 2009 8:13 pm

    Rebecca Just for Fun
    by Jennifer Hirsch and Robert Hunt
    Girls can play games, create crafts, and solve puzzles about Rebecca!66This book is filled with activities and punch-out projects inspired by Rebecca’s stories–girls can make carousel horses, race to the finish in Rebecca’s Coat Factory Board Game, solve sticker sudoku puzzles, play word games, and much more. It’s perfect for rainy days, car trips, slumber parties, and any time a girl just needs a little fun.

    Julie, Kit, and some other girls are also getting one, but not all of them.

  108. Lena on March 24th, 2009 8:14 pm

    Yeah, Disney looses it’s magic if you work “back stage”

  109. Kayleigh on March 24th, 2009 8:26 pm

    Rebecca’s pretty but..well i had hoped that she would have orange hair because i want them to make a historical doll with red hair!

  110. Lena on March 24th, 2009 8:28 pm

    Felicity? She’s a redhead.

  111. Kacie on March 24th, 2009 8:39 pm

    Oh my gosh!! I really want to get her!
    the only thing is i hope she doesn’t look JUST like ruthie, because she dose in this picture.
    but still lol OH MY GOSH!

  112. priscilla on March 24th, 2009 8:40 pm

  114. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 9:02 pm

    That’s awesome I need to go there. P.s I’m big on the Josefina face mold,
    as you can see. (lol) because like, 50% of my dolls (I have 2) have that
    and now every time I say anything about Nellie it’s followed by WHO IS
    TOTALLY AWESOME!!
    P.P.s not to offend any1 who doesn’t have Nellie or doesn’t like her face mop.

  115. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 9:03 pm

    i mean mold, sorry. TYPO!!

  116. Lena on March 24th, 2009 9:08 pm

    Unless you are 13 and MATURE, I do not recommend Playthings, as it is an ADULT collecting board.

  117. Sitara on March 24th, 2009 9:10 pm

    About Nellie:

    Have you ever even seen the original Samantha books? The Nellie of those books has gingery hair. The illustrations were changed later on, AGPT’s History of AG probably says when. In both illustrations Nellie had blue eyes. I’ve seen photos of the prototype Nellie and she has blue eyes. (Although she has the classic mold).

    OK, back on track.
    @ Lena: I hope she doesn’t have the Josefina mold, too. I do wish they’d make a new one, but AG isn’t very good about releasing new molds and they just put out the Sonali one.

    In general, I really like her movie and Hannukah dresses!

  118. Lena on March 24th, 2009 9:10 pm

    And this site usually gets things right after Playthings does (cause Char’s a member or you guys find it) or even BEFORE (like with Rebecca’s pics)

  119. Lena on March 24th, 2009 9:12 pm

    I have some of the OLD originals, the ones where Agnes and Agatha have red afros. Nellie has Nicki colored hair, but yeah, her eyes were always blue.

  120. Starr on March 24th, 2009 9:26 pm

    I have a Meet Samantha book from, like, 1990, its the really old (probably the originally marketed) edition. I have AG books from, like, all the stages. I love Nellie the way she is; she is so cute! I agree she does look a little….nicer…..in the book she does look…..scruffy. But I guess this Nellie is after she’s adopted.

  121. Lena on March 24th, 2009 9:28 pm

    Of course it’s Nellie after adoption. I still wish they would have made her one dress from when she was poor though….

  122. Starr on March 24th, 2009 9:29 pm

    Actually, I have Meet Samantha and Samantha Learns a Lesson. They are both from 1986.

  123. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 9:29 pm

    Nicki kinda had brown hair with blond highlights, so yeah. I have those OLD, old ones where Nellie kinda had a double chin. I mean, if youre poor, you kinda expect them to be skinny. I like the new illustrator
    better.
    And Lena why don’t you like Josefina’s mold?

  124. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 9:30 pm

    Yeah me too. I don’t know why but I just like orphans!

  125. Starr on March 24th, 2009 9:30 pm

    They have what I think are the original illustrations. Nellie’s hair is a shade darker and it is shorter. Not quite the red it is now but a gingery dirty-blonde, light light light brown color.

  126. Lena on March 24th, 2009 9:31 pm

    It just doesn’t fit some dolls. Not to mention in the last 5 years, there have been 6 dolls added with that mold. It seems like a little much. Plus, I don’t like how it looks, something about those eyes.

  127. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 9:32 pm

    Didn’t she have not brown or blonde hair?

  128. Starr on March 24th, 2009 9:32 pm

    In my books Nellie doesn’t have a double chin. She looks thin, sad and has a puppy-dog look on her face.

  129. Lena on March 24th, 2009 9:33 pm

    Nellie the doll had strawberry blonde hair. Nellie the original drawing had a shade darker than Nicki hair.

  130. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 9:33 pm

    I mean like honey brown, sorry

  131. Sallie on March 24th, 2009 9:35 pm

    maybe she got the puppy dog look from hunger? abuse? an alein? idk

  132. Starr on March 24th, 2009 9:35 pm

    Lena—yep, you got it right. Do you by chance know who the original illustrator of the Samantha books was? Was it…..never mind, the two books I have have different illustrators. Now I’m confused!
    Let’s talk about something else……..

  133. Lena on March 24th, 2009 9:36 pm

    Haha, sure. What?

  134. Starr on March 24th, 2009 9:38 pm

    FREE SHIPPING THROUGH APRIL 5th @ American Girl! I probably won’t get have enough $$ for Sonali by then, but I can try….No new sale items this week, too bad.

  135. sallie on March 24th, 2009 9:38 pm

    Ive got to go. Ill talk more tomorrow. bye.

  136. Lena on March 24th, 2009 9:42 pm

    You know, they almost always have free shipping codes. I can give you one when you are ready to get Sonali, even after April 5.

  137. Lena on March 24th, 2009 9:46 pm

    K, in case you didn’t see it, 31 is up. I’m mezza morta myself, so

    Bouna Notte!

  138. Starr on March 24th, 2009 9:48 pm

    Bye Sallie!
    Thanks Lena, I’d really appreciate that! It would save me….I’m not sure how much but even a few bucks is great for me! With shipping and handling and tax, etc. it will cost me a total of $114, which is 19 more dollars than the doll actually costs. When you don’t have a job or any steady income (other than a measley $3 a week…at which rate it would take me several months to finally save up), $19, almost $20 extra is a lot….I’ve always been a bit cheap…
    But I also want to buy the sparkly hair pick for Sonali’s hair, which is six more dollars….and maybe, if I have enough extra money, an outfit or two….IDK which ones, though. I have too many AG things I want anyway!

  139. Starr on March 24th, 2009 9:48 pm

    Good night, I’m off too!
    Buona Notte!

  140. Caitlin on March 24th, 2009 9:53 pm

    I am finally back on after working on homework and having dinner. I am excited about the free shipping!! I am going to babysit Saturday so I’m going to get some money and buy some stuff I think. I’m still not sure what to ask for for my sixteenth birthday next month. I think I’m going to ask my grandparents for an ipod touch because I really want one and I’ve never had an ipod before. I wil download American Girl movies to watch on it!! Hee hee. Then from my relatives I’ll just aks for general stuff like gift cards and money. I’m not expecting a lot becuase the economy is bad right now. Only my grandparents like to spoil me and my sister because we are the only grandkids they have!!! I was thinking about AG stuff from my parents, but now I’m thinking about jewelry. What do you guys think?

  141. madison on March 24th, 2009 10:41 pm

    buona notte everybody! *sighs contently*

  142. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 4:24 am

    Hi, I’m back. I only got barely 6 hours of sleep. My cat Copper was in my
    room except I didn’t know it, and she was like sniffing around and I started to hyperventilate. It was freaky! And when she jumped on my bed
    I screamed and woke up my mom! It was kind of hilarious, though *evil grin* and now I’m up at 4, typing!!

  143. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 4:28 am

    Rise and shine, guys! Early bird gets the worm!…

    That is kind of gross. I mean, a WORM!!! Eww!

  144. sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:16 am

    Okay I am going to try to siesta. bye! : )

  145. Lena on March 25th, 2009 6:40 am

    Boun Giorno!
    Sallie, you’re not the only one who didn’t sleep much……

  146. jess on March 25th, 2009 7:59 am

    awesome! i want to get her! i hope she has the julie mold!

  147. priscilla on March 25th, 2009 8:28 am

    hi,well,here it is only 6:00 and iv been up 4 an hour! ugh,i hate ear infections!(which i have right now.)it woke me up way too early. oh well. anyhow,on the subject of nellie,i have the meet samantha book from 1986 and nellie is thin from hunger and has reddish brown hair and is wearing a brown dress.

  148. priscilla on March 25th, 2009 8:29 am

    i think i’ll get rebecca instead of sonali.

  149. Lena on March 25th, 2009 9:53 am

    Jess, that would be the Josefina mold.
    Personally, I’m hoping for Kaya or Sonali, or the original, but I’d rather her not have a mold that so many girls have (historicals and BFs.)

  150. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 10:49 am

    Hey, I like the Josefina mold, but yeah, too many charectors have it.

  151. Lena on March 25th, 2009 10:53 am

    Personally, i’d love a mold that’s hardly used, like #4, Kaya, Sonali, or I’ll even settle for Jess.
    Besides the last historical (Julie) and Chrissa both have the Josefinal mold, so i doubt they’s use it.
    That said…. my mom told me I lokk most like Josefina.

  152. Holly on March 25th, 2009 12:59 pm

    i agree w/ u lena completely!!! mayb a new mold! that would b defiantely better!

  153. Lena on March 25th, 2009 1:06 pm

    I’m wish they do a new mold, but it seems unlikley with the new Sonali mold. I’d love either one of those listed or a new one, but likley it will be the original mold.

  154. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 1:35 pm

    They aren’t very good at releasing new molds. I mean, like one every 5 yrs. Hopefully a new mold, but the chances are very unlikely. Sorry to put
    a cloud on everybody, but yeah, Lena, probably the original mold. 50% of
    my dolls have the original mold, and I think it is pretty. Rebecca will be
    pretty, whatever face mold she has.

  155. Lena on March 25th, 2009 1:42 pm

    Of my four AG’s, 3 have the original mold. And the 4th’s Sonali.

  156. Lena on March 25th, 2009 1:56 pm

    Oh, and they started with one mold. Addy was added in 1993, then the American Girl of Today (now JLY) added #4 slighlyn altered face, 1998 saw Josefina, 2002 saw Kaya, 2006 saw Jess, and now ’09’s seeing Sonali. they’ve gotten better in the last few years, but they could add more.

  157. priscilla on March 25th, 2009 2:04 pm

    i don’t really care what mold she has.

  158. priscilla on March 25th, 2009 2:05 pm

    to me,it does’nt really matter…

  159. corrine on March 25th, 2009 2:38 pm

    woot! i cant wait until rebecca is out! i cant wait to see her in doll form!

  160. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 2:52 pm

    Me too! She will be real pretty! Maybe shell look like Josefina with Ruthie’s hair. Madison is there any photos of the doll? That would be so awesome! If she was a JLY then the discription would probably be this:

    $95. Medium skin, brown/black hair, brown eyes.

  161. Winter Wish on March 25th, 2009 2:52 pm

    She looks a lot like Samantha. Except the skin tone and clothes, though. She’s really very pretty and I really like her meet dress. :)

  162. Lena on March 25th, 2009 2:53 pm

    She said there isn’t.
    BTW, Ruthie has streaks of red in her hair.

  163. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 2:57 pm

    That’s kinda funny how we were talking about Nellie and Josefina face molds last night! Hehe!

  164. priscilla on March 25th, 2009 3:17 pm

    hi,this is kind of random,but have you ever watched the show sunny with a chance? i saw it for the first time a few days ago,it’s so awesome!

  165. Lena on March 25th, 2009 3:21 pm

    t’s funny, but I kinda like the McKenzie Falls kids better.

  166. sarah on March 25th, 2009 3:25 pm

    Do you think she will have Josefina colored skin or white skin???

  167. priscilla on March 25th, 2009 3:45 pm

    lena,me too,but i do like sunny and nico,but tawni is spoiled,and grady is kind of,well,gross.

  168. priscilla on March 25th, 2009 3:56 pm

    have you seen the barbie thumbelina movie? is it a good movie? i was thinking of buying it…

  169. sarah on March 25th, 2009 4:36 pm

    Barbies aren’t my thing anymore, but the movies are really cute, and people I’m 13!!!! I love the Nutcracker sooooo much so my mom got me Barbie and the Nutcracker. It’s really cute, I also have barbie in a christmas carol, its cute also, its meant for younger kids but I must say I like them!!! sorry pris, I haven’t seen it yet!!

  170. Zoe on March 25th, 2009 4:37 pm

    Thanks for posting, Madi! I <3 Rebecca now! I definately have to show my sister! =)

  171. Zoe on March 25th, 2009 4:39 pm

    Does anyone think she looks like Anne Frank??? I do…

  172. sarah on March 25th, 2009 4:42 pm

    She does remind me of anne frank a bit…….

  173. Peyton on March 25th, 2009 4:47 pm

    haha lena, i love the McKenzie Falls kids toooo! THere awesome I would so want to be on that show hahhaa

  174. Lena on March 25th, 2009 4:57 pm

    No, she doesn’t look like Anne Frank. Not a thing like her.
    McKenzie Falls rules. I love how Chad is so self centered.

  175. Lena on March 25th, 2009 4:57 pm

    I’m sorry, I meant *does dramatic face*
    Chad Dillon Cooper

  176. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:01 pm

    Lets get back on track, guys!

  177. Starr on March 25th, 2009 5:05 pm

    Back on track to what? Do we have to talk about a specific thing?
    (Sorry if i sound stuck-up or mean….)

  178. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:05 pm

    Come on! I think I’m the lucky 200th commenter!

  179. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:06 pm

    Don’t worry, you don’t sound stuck up

  180. Starr on March 25th, 2009 5:07 pm

    SO much drama at my school today, OMG. We were obsessing over every detail about everything that happened today on the bus home, lol. Like analyzing it. It was kinda funny, cuz all my friends were involved in some drama, but I wasn’t. I was just listening and offering advice and being thankful none of it was happening to me.

  181. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:08 pm

    Hmm, I wonder.. Oh my gosh, my kitty just licked my knee.

  182. Marcia on March 25th, 2009 5:08 pm

    I guess Rebecca does look a little bit like Anne Frank.

    Madi, I’m glad you sent Char the other pictures! I like the cover of Rebecca and the Movies a lot.

  183. SALLIE on March 25th, 2009 5:09 pm

    THAT’S GOOD.

  184. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:10 pm

    Sorry, I had caps lock on. Stupid keyboard!

  185. Starr on March 25th, 2009 5:10 pm

    There’s only like 180 comments right now, 181 if you count this, 182 if you commented.

  186. Starr on March 25th, 2009 5:11 pm

    Never mind, there’s more.

  187. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:11 pm

    me too Marcia! She looks like she’s getting ready for a play!

  188. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:12 pm

    you counted?!? So i’m not the lucky 200th commenter?!?

  189. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:13 pm

    How many dolls do you have? I have 2.

  190. Sallie on March 25th, 2009 5:15 pm

    One of them is a JLY and the other is Nellie!

  191. Lena on March 25th, 2009 5:15 pm

    Sallie, it says at the top how many there are.
    I have 4. Kit, Kirsten, Sonali, and Smantha.

  192. Starr on March 25th, 2009 5:17 pm

    If you scroll to the very top, below the post, it says “comments” then below “189 responses to………blah blah blah” . That’s where I got the number. Not quite 200 yet…..but you may be soon! I wouldn’t count all the comments; too many!
    I have four dolls, if the question was directed to me. I have, in no order, Mia, Nellie, and two JLYs, Luna and Rose. Rose’s blog is my link.

  193. Starr on March 25th, 2009 5:17 pm

    Lena—what did you do with Rosabella?

    I’m saving up to get Sonali, tonight I’ll get a few more bucks for watching my sisters….yay!

  207. Annie on March 25th, 2009 5:32 pm

    How come the person who sent that in had the book? I wish I had the book. I want Rebecca soooooooo bad!

  208. Starr on March 25th, 2009 5:34 pm

    Me too, Emma! I wonder what she’ll look like….I think she’ll have the classic mold, but since Samantha had that….and they can’t be too much alike, I hope they aren’t…

  209. VICTORIA on March 25th, 2009 5:47 pm

    That would be so spictacler If they showed a real picture of Rebecca!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  210. Cloe on March 25th, 2009 5:49 pm

  211. Abby on March 25th, 2009 5:49 pm

  212. Jessica on March 25th, 2009 5:49 pm

    Guys, I’m SOOO sorry I haven’t been on in a while!! So much has happened in the past (how many?) months. I got a new puppy at my house!! It’s a fawn pug named Murphy. He’s three months old, and while he can be a terror, he’s so cute and loveable! My mom has tumors, but the doctors don’t think they’re threatening. And Beth is starting to paint!!

  213. Abby on March 25th, 2009 5:51 pm

    Hi Cloe! i dont have Sonali but she looks really pretty. im sure you will adore her.

  214. Jessica on March 25th, 2009 5:51 pm

    BTW, Beth claims that she’s “better at poetry than painting”. But I think they’re both really good!!

  215. Cloe on March 25th, 2009 5:51 pm

  241. Caitlin on March 25th, 2009 6:27 pm

    Hi Lena!! I love your Mezza Morte(a) story!!! What does Mezza Morte exactly mean? I think the morte part is death….but what about the rest?!! Oh, and is chapter 31 the end or is there going to be more, because at the top you said it took you forever to write it, and then it had a cliffhanger ending (you are really good at those) and I wa just wondering what happens next!!!

  242. Abby on March 25th, 2009 6:27 pm

    hi caitlin! im going to Destin Florida. camping on the gulf!

  243. Abby on March 25th, 2009 6:28 pm

    well i think ill be off now.

  244. Lena on March 25th, 2009 6:30 pm

    Caitlin, no it’s not the end. And thank you! Mezza Morta means “half dead”

  245. Caitlin on March 25th, 2009 6:36 pm

    oooooo, cool!!! I love to write too and I love to write historical fiction and a little bit of fantasy, but I never thought about writing about gangsters or mobsters!! Please forgive me if I’m being incredibly ignorant, but what is the time period in the story?

  246. Lena on March 25th, 2009 6:37 pm

    It has no time period. She owns a current Corvette, but all the artwork has 50’s type clothes and I’ll put something about prohibition in soon.

  247. Holly on March 25th, 2009 6:39 pm

    my new jly should b here at like tomorrow or friday! wahahoo!!! ill post pics of her on my site!

  248. Lena on March 25th, 2009 6:41 pm

    Two of the best books I’ve read are both about mobsters, and I know the people who wrote them, so I wanted to try and make my own.
    Plus, Godfather’s my favorite movie!

    I’ve actually written (really bad) stories about the back then 8 historicals when they are 20.

  249. Lena on March 25th, 2009 6:42 pm

    Cool Holly

  250. Caitlin on March 25th, 2009 6:42 pm

    Cool Holly, what one did you get?? That makes it even more interesting Lena! I’m writing a Roman era piece, like a couple hundred years after the battle of Troy, but I need to do some research and find out more about the life, language, food and clothing and stuff so it can be historically accurate!!

  251. sarah on March 25th, 2009 6:42 pm

    im bored………..

  252. sarah on March 25th, 2009 6:43 pm

  255. Caitlin on March 25th, 2009 7:18 pm

    French dip!!!! Hee hee, I know you didn’t mean that literally Madison, but I thought I would say it anyway. We are having it for dinner, yum!! I just got finished starting a love letter for my friend’s english class. She needed a little direction so I wrote a couple lines so she could get the hang of it. They’re reading Cyrano de Bergerac, it’s a French story aobut a guy with a long nose. There’s a modern movie of it called Roxanne with Steve Martin in it. pretty funny!!!

  256. bella on March 25th, 2009 7:40 pm

  257. Holly on March 25th, 2009 7:40 pm

  258. Lena on March 25th, 2009 7:42 pm

    No, she won’t. And is she is in the future, they might pull an Elizabeth on us.

  259. Yeah! on March 25th, 2009 8:15 pm

    I found this online at another site!!!

When Rebecca learns that her cousins in Russia are in great danger and must escape to America, she puts on a show to raise money–until her disapproving grandmother steps in.

  260. Lena on March 25th, 2009 8:20 pm

    Those have been out for a while now…..

  261. Yeah! on March 25th, 2009 8:56 pm

    Meet Rebecca
    Rebecca Rubin is a lively nine-year-old girl growing up in a big
    Jewish family in New York in 1914. She dreams of becoming an actress,
    but her parents and grandparents have traditional ideas and don’t
    think young ladies should perform. When Rebecca learns that her
    cousins in Russia are in great danger and must escape to America, she
    puts on a show to raise money–until her disapproving grandmother
    steps in. Unexpectedly, Rebecca finds another way to earn money. But
    for her plan to work, she’ll have to keep it a secret. Includes an
    illustrated “Looking Back” essay about Jewish immigration and culture.

    Rebecca and Ana
    At last, Rebecca’s cousin, Ana, has made the long journey from Russia
    to Ellis Island. It’s crowded with two families living in one small
    apartment, but Rebecca is happy to share everything with Ana. At
    school, she is determined to help Ana learn English. But when the
    teacher tells her to include Ana in a special performance, Rebecca
    panics–Ana’s broken English will ruin the show! As the big day draws
    near, Rebecca learns an important lesson about what matters most.
    Includes an illustrated “Looking Back” section about urban schools in
    1914.

    Candlelight for Rebecca
    Rebecca is troubled when her teacher assigns her class to make
    Christmas decorations. Rebecca’s family is Jewish and doesn’t
    celebrate Christmas, but her teacher says Christmas is a national
    holiday, for all Americans to celebrate. Yet Rebecca knows she’s as
    American as anyone else, even without celebrating Christmas! She wants
    to please her teacher, but she’s sure her family will be upset. Then,
    on the first night of Hanukkah, Rebecca finds kindness in an
    unexpected place, and learns the real meaning of the holiday season.
    Includes an illustrated “Looking Back” section about Christmas and
    Hanukkah in 1914.

    Rebecca and the Movies
    On her tenth birthday, Rebecca can hardly believe it when her cousin
    Max, the actor, invites her to come to his movie studio! Although her
    parents don’t approve of actors or movies, Mama relents and says
    Rebecca may go. When the camera begins to roll, Rebecca finds herself
    facing an opportunity she never imagined in her wildest dreams. Does
    she have the nerve for it? And what would her parents say if they
    knew? Includes an illustrated “Looking Back” section about the early
    days of silent movies.

    Rebecca to the Rescue (funny enough, in the description for the boxed
    set, it says Rebecca Saves the Day)
    Rebecca is thrilled to spend a day at the Coney Island amusement park
    with her cousins. If only Papa hadn’t put her bossy brother Victor in
    charge of all the games and rides! Fuming, Rebecca resolves to show
    Victor that girls can do anything boys can do. When the boys tease and
    laugh at her, she and Ana decide to leave their brothers and have fun
    on their own. Then the Ferris wheel gets stuck and Ana disappears–and
    the girls get more excitement than they bargained for. Includes an
    illustrated “Looking Back” section about Coney Island in 1914.

    Changes for Rebecca
    Rebecca thinks it’s a grand idea to make a movie with her cousin Ana,
    but when gentle Ana plays the role of a cruel factory boss, the fun
    turns sour. Later Rebecca goes to the factory where Ana’s brother and
    father work, and she’s horrified at the terrible conditions-but she
    knows the workers desperately need their jobs. There’s got to be a way
    to make things better at the factory, and Rebecca is determined to do
    her part–even if it means marching straight into danger. Includes an
    illustrated “Looking Back” section about the labor movement in
    Rebecca’s time.

  262. hailey on March 25th, 2009 8:59 pm

  265. Lindsey on March 26th, 2009 6:24 am

    Did anyone else get the ad? If so where did you get it? I want to know more about Rebecca.

  266. Lena on March 26th, 2009 7:19 am

    Kiah, it’s closed because it’s wrong in the Nez Perce culture to smile with your mouth open.
    Hehe…. see Selena? I’m psychic! LOL!

  267. priscilla on March 26th, 2009 8:56 am

    lena,i did’nt know that about kaya! thanks 4 telling me. Lindsey,the person that got the ad in the mail(madi) got it because her mum wanted to sell books and they sent it to them.

  268. Marcia on March 26th, 2009 9:13 am

    I wish we could read that sample of Rebecca’s book….

  269. Abby on March 26th, 2009 10:07 am

  271. Lena on March 26th, 2009 12:13 pm

    Ok, I changed my journal’s name to Mezza Morta. In case anyone want to know:

    Mezza MortE means “half death”.

    Mezza MortA means “woman half dead”

    Mezza MortO means “man half dead”

    Since Rose is a girl and I want it grammatically correct, Mezza Morta it is.

  272. AG FAN on March 26th, 2009 12:30 pm

    hi i am back

  273. AG FAN on March 26th, 2009 12:43 pm

    thanks, yeah! i really hope they make a film of her. my mum said if i like her i can save up for her and then get her.
    the last book changes for rebecca is kinda like samanthas one cause she goes to the factory and sees the horrible scene

  274. AG FAN on March 26th, 2009 12:51 pm

  275. Lena on March 26th, 2009 1:08 pm

    He was on the phone with Rose. Look at the ending of 30, he says the same thing. But yeah, the next chapter has the continuation of the phone call.

    Thanks!!!!!

  276. AG FAN on March 26th, 2009 1:59 pm

    thanks lena. cannot wait till ch. 32!!!!!!!!!!!

  277. Lena on March 26th, 2009 2:01 pm

    Haha, I’m typing it up now. Should be up by tonight.
    I don’t know when the short stories’ll be out.

  278. AG FAN on March 26th, 2009 2:02 pm

  279. AG FAN on March 26th, 2009 2:03 pm

    ok. cool lena

  280. Lena on March 26th, 2009 2:05 pm

    They won’t make her now. If they do in the future, they;ll likely pull and “Elizabeth” on us.

  281. AG FAN on March 26th, 2009 2:07 pm

    lllllllaaaaaaaa deeeeeee dummmm random!

  282. AG FAN on March 26th, 2009 2:10 pm

    what are you talking about?

  283. Lena on March 26th, 2009 2:11 pm

    Anna being made.

  284. Bree on March 26th, 2009 3:05 pm

    Hey it’s Bree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  285. Holly on March 26th, 2009 3:55 pm

    yep.. i did get her 2day. i absolutely am in a daze by her! she is SO pretty!

  286. Cloe on March 26th, 2009 4:05 pm

    hi

  287. Sitara on March 26th, 2009 4:39 pm

    That doesn’t make sense, though…Unless AG is dropping the best friends line for historicals (after all, Nellie’s gone and she doesn’t appear to be getting a replacement), they would probably design An(n?)a to look less like Rebecca. Like, longer, straighter hair and hazel eyes or something. Since there was so much controversy over Elizabeth, and oh my, the threads about Ruthie–when all they changed was her eyes!–it would be a bad marketing move on AG’s part. Plus, it would cost money to redo the illustrations.

    I wonder if the point of all this is that there will never be an An(n?)a? [NB--I've seen it spelled with one and with 2 "n"s, IDK which is correct]

    So, do any of you want to buy Rebecca or her collection? If so, what parts?

    I won’t get Rebecca unless she has amber (#26 color) eyes. If that does not happen, I’m getting Nellie her Hannukah dress and getting Ruthie her Movie dress. Does anyone know how accurate those are for the 1900s and 1930s respectively? I’m pretty sure that the Hannukah dress is at least a little off, but the movie dress looks just like what Ruthie wore in the Kit movie. The Movie and Candlelight illustrations make Rebecca look so pretty!

  288. sarah on March 26th, 2009 4:40 pm

    I didn’t know there was contoversey over Elizbeth?!?! But why?????

  289. Selena on March 26th, 2009 4:54 pm

    Hi!! Just got back from CC (school) …. Ya probably lena… from what i see on the book, i kinda like ana more!!

  290. Ashlen Joy on March 26th, 2009 4:57 pm

    She looks really cute

  291. Lena on March 26th, 2009 5:00 pm

    Sarah, the original Elizabeth in the books was brown haired and brown eyed, not the blonde and blue eyed like ag made her. They said it was so the dolls wouldn’t look alike, but then Felicity’s a redhead green eyed girl.

    Sitara, Sam’s blue velvet dress (the one that came out only a short while before the “archival” announcement) looks a lot like Rebecca’s Hanukkah dress, so I’d say yes.
    Ruthie is after Rebecca’s time, so she could have the move dress.

  292. ZOEF on March 26th, 2009 5:09 pm

    OMG!!!!!!!!! I just had a look at the pics and i screamed!!! I can’t wait for her to come out and to see her in doll form!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  293. sarah on March 26th, 2009 5:45 pm

    I don’t remember the old books having her have brown hair. Were they like old old books, or the ones with the older covers that they had before these covers? Oh, and thanx Lena:)!!!!!!

  294. Lena on March 26th, 2009 5:47 pm

    The covers before these. 2005 was when they made the change.

  295. sarah on March 26th, 2009 6:42 pm

    At our library they have the old ones so I’ll go check em out and look for elizabeth in the lissie books

  296. sarah on March 26th, 2009 6:44 pm

    I think the reason they made elizabeth blonde is because they didn’t have too many light haired historical dolls, also I definetely think blonde looks beautiful on her, even if thats not accurate, although I DO see where it cause controversy.

  297. priscilla on March 26th, 2009 6:45 pm

    i have elizabeth,but i read the old books and she had brown hair.I hink she looked even prettier with brown hair.

  298. Lena on March 26th, 2009 7:19 pm

    Yeah, I prefer her with brown hair too. And there aren’t many light haired girls in the world, so they should have stuck with the darker hair.

    Non white dolls don’t count here. (Kaya, Josefina, Addy, Ivy)

    Blonde: Kirsten, Kit, Julie, Elizabeth
    Red: Felicity, Nellie, Emily
    Brunette: Samantha, Molly, Ruthie

    It even out, but technically, it shouldn’t

    BTW, someone made a custom Elizabeth out of a Julie (with a brown wig) and she looks really pretty.

  299. Lena on March 26th, 2009 7:29 pm

    Actually, wait, with Rebecca, there are the same number of blondes as brunettes!
    AG, no. There are more brunettes in the world. Try a little research?

  300. Holly on March 26th, 2009 7:32 pm

    i really want the josefina mold,amber eyes, medium brown hair, and ivory skin. how bout yall? o btw, i named my jlk emerson brooke

  301. Lena on March 26th, 2009 7:34 pm

    A mold that’s not used for every doll that comes out (Kaya, Sonali, #4, or even Jess), dark brown hair, brown decal eyes, and olive skin. Yeah, I want a new skin tone.

  302. priscilla on March 26th, 2009 7:46 pm

    who made the custom elizabeth? are there any pictures of her?

  303. Selena on March 26th, 2009 8:35 pm

    BOUNA NOTTE! (lena, i’m waiting for the new chpt.!! =D )

  304. sarah on March 26th, 2009 8:38 pm

    I actually think Elizabeth is one of the most beautiful AG dolls there is, my friend has her and she is gorgeous! Your right Lena, there are definetely more brunettes in the world, but i think a lot of girls like to buy blonde dolls, so they made more of them. *sigh* its all about marketing, remember the good old days when they made it pleasure, not business? BTW, does Julie have the same mold as Elizabeth?? I’ve never really looked closely.

  305. Lena on March 26th, 2009 8:55 pm

    Yes, Julie and Elizabeth both have a Josefina mold.
    Yeah, they make what sells, not what is accurate (like half of Julie’s stuff is not in the books)

  306. sarah on March 26th, 2009 9:44 pm

    Wow, Lena how come you know sooooo much about AG? Have you been a collector for a long time? Or have you done research?

  307. Starr on March 26th, 2009 10:17 pm

    Well, I agree they have to make what sells, otherwise what is the purpose of having a company? However, at least AG markets books with the dolls and since the products are so…..fun….it doesn’t seem like plain old advertising….Do you know what I mean or am I too confusing?

  308. madison on March 26th, 2009 10:22 pm

    hmmhmmm hmmmh mhmhmhmhmhmh ha haha. (thinking: what in the world am i doing they must think i’m weird oh well) dum doo dum di lum poof sha rah and………………………………………… PUDDING!!!!

  309. Starr on March 26th, 2009 10:23 pm

    I don’t necessarily agree that blond dolls sell better; many little girls (such as myself) like a doll that looks like them (at least for their first doll….), and as was previously mentioned, there are more brunettes in the world. I am a brunette, and my first doll, a JLY, was a brunette (who looked like me at the time….not at ALL any more). My sister is a blonde and her first doll was Elizabeth….but she also has Chrissa. I personally would like to have an accurate ratio of blonde:brunette dolls, however right now that is, sadly, not true. I have two red-heads, one blond and only one brunette. My collection is pitifully out of proportion, but i love my dolls. I have, however, promised myself only to get brunette dolls from now on. I don’t plan on getting too many more dolls anyway…3 probably tops. Definitely Sonali, she will hopefully add much-needed diversity to my group. And then, probably Ruthie, Ivy, or Rebecca. I don’t know yet which one, but don’t need to know yet.

  310. Kiah on March 26th, 2009 10:45 pm

    hey, my little brother is HANGING my bitty baby, im sooo mad at him

    BEWARE OF LITTLE BROTHERS!!!!!!!!!

    at least keep your dolls (including bitty babies) away from them
    so ya, oh my gosh i just remembered

    I ORDERED JESS OFF OF EBAY TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM SOOOOOOO EXCITED, SHES NEW IN THE BOX

    if i ever say anything mean or unusual its not me, i think my little brother is coming on here and saying hes me so i just thought i would tell you guys(girls)

  311. Chrysanthamum on March 26th, 2009 11:11 pm

    i am so excited because i found this site and there is finally a pic of rebeccca. i wonder why they didnt pick a different russian name though. i think the russian name is sometimes spelled with k not c.
    i love ag and calico critters.
    i have nellie, a few outfits and i ouht a bitty baby outfit for my baby doll ive had since iwas two. its not ag but sowhat.
    i want to buy the western horse and rebecca.
    if anyone wants to buy a samantha i have one listed on craiglist. that and ebay seem like great places to find ag stuff.

  312. Chrysanthamum on March 26th, 2009 11:11 pm

    i like the historical dolls best. and the bitty dolls.

  313. Chrysanthamum on March 26th, 2009 11:37 pm

    im not sure what doll ill buy next.
    i like ag and my dollhouse.

  314. Chrysanthamum on March 26th, 2009 11:38 pm

    is bitty baby ok now?

  315. Chrysanthamum on March 26th, 2009 11:50 pm

    why do some people have sa many dolls. it is cool if you do though. iw ish i did.
    i had to save up for my doll stuff, and anything dlese i want. but thats fine by me because iget an allowance.
    im sort of bored.

  316. Chrysanthamum on March 26th, 2009 11:54 pm

    do you think ag will make bestfirend dolls for the dolls that dont have them yet?

  317. Chrysanthamum on March 26th, 2009 11:57 pm

    samantha was the most popular doll. did she get retired so ag would sell more of the other dolls?

  318. priscilla on March 27th, 2009 7:00 am

    Chrysanthamum,i like calico critters too,which ones do you have? i have the rabbit. also,my american girl dolls are- Jess,Elizabeth,and the bitty twins.And then me and my sister share some AGs as well,they are-Julie,Tasha,Eliza Regina May.

  319. priscilla on March 27th, 2009 7:04 am

    i bought all my doll stuff,including the stuff me and my sister share except jess.My mum bought me Jess,but i had to save up for everything else,it’s kind of hard to save up. Does anyone know any ways on how to make money 4 an AG doll ? (i was thinking about jewelry making,is that good?)

  320. priscilla on March 27th, 2009 7:08 am

    Kiah,poor bitty baby! why did your brother do that?!? you could always send it to the doll hospital. What did he “hang” her for?!?

  321. Lena on March 27th, 2009 8:41 am

    Sarah, I got Kit eight years ago, but I’ve been a collector for only a year. I’m a member of an adult collecting board (remember, I’m about 3-4 years older than most of you guys.
    I have a job, so I save up the money to get them myself. I have Kit, Sonali, Samantha, and Kirsten.

  322. Sallie on March 27th, 2009 9:21 am

    Maybe her name would look more Russian if they spelled it Rebekah?

  323. Chrysanthamum on March 27th, 2009 10:54 am

    priscilla i have furniture sets and some baby animals that came with a few of the play sets. i have a few baby rabbits, a Dr., he is a bear, a koala, panda, squirrel.
    i got them at amazon.com and a store called elephants trunk at the mall.

  324. Lena on March 27th, 2009 11:09 am

    Sallie, I can’t say how old I am, but I can say I’m old enough to work, not old enough to drive, and I’m a sophomore in high school.

    About the name Rebecca, many immigrant names were changed at Ellis Island to be spelled “American” so even if she came from Russia, her name would be changed to Rebecca.
    If she were born in the US, then most parents chose Americanized names for their children, and her name would still be Rebecca.

  325. Chrysanthamum on March 27th, 2009 11:19 am

    i emailed ag and hey said they were not planning on retiring any morre historicals because they are the heart of ag collection and it is not their goal tor retire all of tehm. i wonder if they will in like ten years. is it possible to tkae stuff out of treitrement if they wait like thirty years or more if they are still in busines?

  326. Lena on March 27th, 2009 11:38 am

    Well, they took what they retired out of Felicity’s collection and brought some of it back, so I’d say yes.

  327. Winter Wish on March 27th, 2009 11:43 am

    Hi! Anybody on? BTW, Rebecca is really cute! :)

  328. sarah on March 27th, 2009 12:10 pm

    Whoa Kiah that’s Ca-Reepy!!! I had this dream once that my AG dolls got her head shaved off, *shivers*

  329. Marcia on March 27th, 2009 12:17 pm

    Your brother doesn’t really sound very nice, Kiah. I wonder why he wanted to hang your bitty baby?

  330. Lauren on March 27th, 2009 12:30 pm

    Where can i see more pics? Where did you get this information? From AGP? A catalog? Plzzzzz let me know!!!!

  331. Marcia on March 27th, 2009 1:35 pm

    I think those are probably the only pics right now, Lauren. Madison got a pamphelet about Rebecca in the mail.

  332. Lena on March 27th, 2009 1:57 pm

    Her mom wanted to be a bookseller, that’s why she got one.

  333. Dianabug on March 27th, 2009 2:37 pm

    OMG!!!!! She is soooo pretty!!! Im gonna save up more money to get her!

  334. Peyton on March 27th, 2009 4:36 pm

    I really hope that AG is still happening when I am like 30 because if i have any daughters i will spoil them with ag stufff
    hehe

  335. sarah on March 27th, 2009 5:37 pm

    Yeah me too, I’ll buy them something for their AG dolls a few times a month. And anytime I see something doll sized, I’m going to get it for them. I’m also going to give them my AG stuff because IF ag is still going by the time I have kids, than the stuff I give them will be like wayyyyy retired and going for a lot on eBay, although I WONT sell it on eBay, ever

  336. priscilla on March 27th, 2009 5:37 pm

    my sister loves dora the explorer(she’s 3.) and geuss what? they’re giving “dora” a makeover to look like a bratz doll,i think my mom’s kind of mad about it.

  337. Lena on March 27th, 2009 8:08 pm

    K, I’m sick……………. no new chapters……………. to sick to write………………… I’m going to sleep.
    Bouna Notte.

  338. Starr on March 27th, 2009 8:17 pm

    Dang, I was sort of hoping someone would be on, none of my friends are on, and I’m so bored and dying to talk to someone……

  339. priscilla on March 27th, 2009 8:44 pm

    hi starr,what do you think about the dora makeover?

  340. corrine on March 27th, 2009 8:57 pm

    ugh i can’t wait till the end of may! thats too long

  341. sarah on March 27th, 2009 9:02 pm

    Lena, ur actually only 2 years older than me!!! LOL!!

  342. sarah on March 27th, 2009 9:02 pm

    grade wise I mean:)

  343. Selena on March 27th, 2009 9:08 pm

    personally, dora and strawberry shortcake (& friends!!) look WAYYYY better!! hey this is random, but I HATE how they changed the cookie monster to the veggie monster (or whatev, whenever that was!!)!!!!!!!!!!!! cookies are wayyyy better lol!!!
    sorry i haven’t been on all day, (i was at a swim party) but now i have to go to bed!! I ihave a BIG test tomorrow to get into a school called…um.. oh ya, corum deo!!! (figure it out lena!!! hehe!!) (I think that’s the spelling…) so plz pray 4 me, it’s a 4 hr. test!! (kinda the model of a SAT -lena-) w/ a essay! ugghhhhh!!
    (so i won’t be on till like 1 (afternoon) tomorrow!!
    BOUNA NOTTE!!!! (next chpt, lena??) =D

  344. sarah on March 27th, 2009 9:47 pm

    Selena, sounds like an Oxford test, argh!! I didn’t know they changed the cookie monster to the veggie monster!!! Thats awful!! Completely terrible, i think its because they want kids to eat more veggie or somethin, but kids like cookies better so he won’t be very popular, kids hate veggies, blah me too.

  345. sarah on March 27th, 2009 9:51 pm

    I have a question for Char, or anyone. Here on DD awhile ago, they said that Bratz where going to be discontinued, but how come I keep seeing commercials for them? I was super happy they were being discontinued but now I see a commercial and I’m completely upset. They aren’t a very good model for little girls, its a negative influence for them IMHO.

  346. Lena on March 28th, 2009 7:59 am

    Sarah, I’ve been wondering too. I see new commercials for Bratz, I see new ones in the stores, but I thought they were discontinued. It was all over the news that day that Bratz can no longer be made, but they still are?

  347. Lena on March 28th, 2009 8:00 am

    In 2008, rival manufacturer Mattel filed suit against MGA for infringement, claiming that MGA had improperly appropriated Mattel intellectual property in creating the Bratz. The jury found in favor of Mattel and awarded them $100 million; $10 million for MGA’s copyright infringement and $90 million for their breach of contract.[2] After the verdict, Mattel filed for a permanent injunction against MGA, to stop them from making and selling Bratz and to dispose of all Bratz-related marketing materials. The superior court judge granted the injunction, but enforcement of the injunction has been stayed until at least the end of 2009, while MGA appeals the decision.

  348. Lena on March 28th, 2009 8:08 am

    K, I read the rest of the article, and the dolls are being made till the end of 2009. Then Matel demands their 100 million and MGM has to destroy all Bratz related material.

  349. Holly on March 28th, 2009 8:28 am

    WOOHOO!!! i could not stand bratz!!!

  350. Lena on March 28th, 2009 8:31 am

    Me neither, Holly.

  351. priscilla on March 28th, 2009 9:14 am

    bratz are retiring?

  352. priscilla on March 28th, 2009 11:35 am

    tomorrow i am going to an ag fashion show!

  353. sarah on March 28th, 2009 12:00 pm

    O ok, I get it now, thanx lena!

  354. Lena on March 28th, 2009 12:35 pm

    K, I made some more changes to Mezza Morta.

  355. bella on March 28th, 2009 12:41 pm

    LUV HER!

  356. Sallie on March 28th, 2009 2:17 pm

    Kiah, something like that happened to my mom’s friend’s daughter, they were having company, loads of boys and a couple girls, and when they left the daughter found her three american girl dolls soaking facedown in the bathtub. This is a doll horror story! the girl cried a lot.

  357. Lena on March 28th, 2009 2:26 pm

    Hey, the shuttle just landed! Wow the sonic boom was loud!

  358. sarah on March 28th, 2009 3:07 pm

    Whoa that IS a doll horror story!!!! Why did they do that??!?!?!

  359. Caitlin on March 28th, 2009 3:27 pm

    It’s been raining nonstop here, not exactly a great spring break so far. Oh well, we still may get to drive down to Oregon, but I’m not sure. I’m sitting with my doggy on my lap right now!! She is a west highland terrier and she is two years old and her name is Rizzo and I love her to death!! I have to babysit at 4:30, grooooaaannn!!! Two little neighbor boys, but they’re actually not that bad. Lena, you saw a shuttle land? Cool!! I knew it was coming down today but I forgot you lived in Florida. Have you seen them launch too? I can’t wait for Rebecca to come out!!!!!

  360. Starr on March 28th, 2009 4:19 pm

    Sallie—that is a doll horror story! What evil company! If someone did that, I’d be SO mad….Just thinking about it makes me furious….Why on earth would those people do that?!

  361. Arlyn on March 28th, 2009 4:21 pm

    Oh my, I cannot WAIT for Rebecca! Though I probably won’t get her until I get the other historical dolls :)

  362. Holly on March 28th, 2009 4:27 pm

    its been raining off and on here. my spring break is not untill 2 more wks. i get 2 spend my spring break recovering from surgery. im gettin a knee operation…. yuck

  363. Lena on March 28th, 2009 5:04 pm

    Yeah, I live in FL.
    Funny, I was at work at Disney and on my break when the shuttle landed. I was on my laptop doing schoolwork, but keeping an eye on the NASA page too (hehe, extra credit) when the sonic boom hit. It was so funny! Every single person jumped at the same time! I was just sitting there laughing cause I was expecting the boom, but every one was so confused, running into stores and asking what happened….. … I laughed so hard.

  364. priscilla on March 28th, 2009 6:20 pm

    i just got back from the AG Fashion show! it was a lot of fun!

  365. Bridget on March 28th, 2009 6:57 pm

    OMG!!! Rebecca is coming? She is SO on my wish list from Santa Clause!

  366. Chrysanthamum on March 28th, 2009 7:08 pm

    that si so coll. i got to see a shuttle take off once in flroida. my spring break is alcost over. i have school monday. nooo.

  367. Lena on March 28th, 2009 7:17 pm

    Haha, that’s cool that you got to see it. And at least you have a spring break. I get none cause I’m home schooled.

    BTW, in 13 min I’m off the computer cause I’m participating in Earth Hour. At 8:30 today, all lights and electronics at my house will be turned off, and at houses around the world! Lol, I’m such a greenie.

  368. sallie on March 28th, 2009 7:19 pm

    Idk, but they did it. One of the dolls was sam. Others were jly.

  369. Abby on March 28th, 2009 9:42 pm

Haha, YAY LENA FOR PARTICIPATING!!!

  373. Selena on March 28th, 2009 11:02 pm

    Hey abby do you mybe mean fudrucker??? It might not be, but I know a resteraunt called that, and it sounds extremely simular!!!!

    the test was OK,,,,, kinda hard though!!! I took the middle level (up to 9th or 8th) and in reasoning i got pretty confused!!! But amazingly enough i figured it out lol!!!!!

    oops…. i forgot about earth hour!!!! I saw a shirt for it on stardoll, but had no clue now i know!! oopsie!! BOUNA NOTTE!!!! fyi i’m goin to church tomorrow morning, and then will be waiting for more Mezza Morta!!!! =D

  374. Selena on March 28th, 2009 11:10 pm

    oh also fyi i was watching pearl harbor when it was earth hour… i almost started crying at the end!! poor danny….. it makes you really not like the Japanese…. it’s kinda scary cause i actually have a friend there (in japan) b/c her dad (he used to be w/ my dad) is in the airforce…… it makes you extremely proud to be an American though!! I recomend it, though kind of….gory(??) /violent …. (i have a double citizenship – Brit. / USA – but am def. going to chose USA!!!)

  375. Chrysanthamum on March 29th, 2009 12:57 am

    whats ‘BOUNA NOTTE’ mean selaean?

  376. Lena on March 29th, 2009 7:50 am

    Buona notte is Italian for good night.

    Hehe, I saw that movie, Selena, and despite that, I STILL LOVE ALL THINGS JAPANESE!!!
    Well, not all, but my fav video games, animated show, and soda are all Japanese!

    WOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I get my Ellowyne today!!!!!! I’m not working so we’re gonna drive to Tampa and get her!!!! (They closed the only FAO Shwartz in Orlando….)

  377. Abby on March 29th, 2009 8:32 am

    Hi Selena! we really dont talk much…. but no i mean fudpucker. its a name of this giant kid resturaunt in destin, florida. their mascot is a pelacon and they have alligators in their mini river. (and great food! but really expensive….)

  378. Abby on March 29th, 2009 8:36 am

    :( it stopped raining but its FREEZING!! my mom said it will get warmer today but there is a red flag up at the beach which means no swimming.

    Red: no swimming Green: swimming allowed Yellow: be catious, but you may swim.

  379. Selena on March 29th, 2009 8:41 am

    oh sorry abby!!! I’d never heard of fudruckers b4 I moved (it took some one pointing it out for me to find!) and i wasn’t sure!! Sounds cool though….

  382. Abby on March 29th, 2009 8:54 am

    Hey Char…….. i also have a question involving bratz….. why are bratz still in stores selling? i just went to walmart and they had TONS of bratz left!

  383. Lena on March 29th, 2009 8:54 am

    Point Orlando (where it was) became more “adult” oriented (night clubs and restaurants) so they had to close. There’s on in the Macy’s in Millenia Mall, but it is a small corner and all it has are little kid toys (no dolls! Not even those cheep babies!). So yeah, we have to go to Tampa.

  384. Lena on March 29th, 2009 8:55 am

    In 2008, rival manufacturer Mattel filed suit against MGA for infringement, claiming that MGA had improperly appropriated Mattel intellectual property in creating the Bratz.

    I already answered this, but here you go.

  385. Selena on March 29th, 2009 8:56 am

    wait, about to go but (you have to read my pearl harbor comment to understand) ….
    POOR DANNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t beleive the Japs did that!!! They would have lived if the japs hadn’t jumped out!!!!!! the end was… happy/sad!! lol ttyl

  386. Lena on March 29th, 2009 9:02 am

    Selena, you’re stereotyping the Japanese based on a move. Yes, what they did was bad, but not all Japanese are evil. I have a friend named Sakura, she’s Japanese, and she’s a very nice girl.

  387. priscilla on March 29th, 2009 10:28 am

    my cousin is 4 years old, she was adopted from japan,and she’s very nice. but she is very shy and wont talk to anyone except her parents. oh,and i went 2 an ag fashion show and on monday they will call me if i won the raffle 4 an ag doll!!!!!

  388. Lena on March 29th, 2009 10:52 am

    Cool Priscilla!

  389. Starr on March 29th, 2009 12:01 pm

    I hope you win it! I don’t actually know any Japanese people (but a lot of my friends are obsessed with it; they love the culture and are taking the language….), but I do have a friend who is from China (like she used to live there). So………ya.

  390. Chrysanthamum on March 29th, 2009 12:19 pm

    of course so many countires did evil stuff.
    what was the ag fashion show like?

  391. Gale on March 29th, 2009 12:39 pm

    We’ve done plenty of evil stuff, too. Believe me; I just finished with the U.S. and Latin America in Geograhpy. Sure, the book was published 10 years ago, but it really taught me things I’d never known before.

  392. Selena on March 29th, 2009 12:44 pm

    i’m back!!! (uh,,,, what does stereo typing mean??????????? or whatev it was…) I have nothing again jap., it’s just the movie was so sad!!!
    hey lena, is Brio still open (at Millenia mall?????) we used to eat there every week after church my FAVORITE resteraunt!!!!! kinda random lol!!!

    priscilla – did they have a gwen, chrissa and sonali?? what did they look like???? did u get any pics??

  393. Lena on March 29th, 2009 1:13 pm

    Stereotyping is when you assume an entire group is something based on one or two people. (eg, blondes are dumb. All Italians are in the mob)

    I’m not sure, I don’t go there much. My mom’s obsessed with the Ikea they built there, but it’s not in the mall, so we never go in. Besides, I prefer to shop at stores that are less exclusive, but I can still put together outfits from them.

  394. Caitlin on March 29th, 2009 1:34 pm

    I think I am going to buy some things from AG while they still have free shipping, but I’m going to hold off on getting an actual doll until I see what Rebecca looks like. I’m still not sure about Sonali, and I like Kaya a lot too, so I will just wait to see Rebecca and make a decision from there.

    I hate sterotyping but’s it annoyingly easy to do sometimes, and then you feel bad about it when you realize you did it. I have learned though to get to know someone before you make assumptions. Like at our school we have cheerleaders, and some of them are the snobby stuck up sterotypes, but the ones I know are very nice and helpful actually!! And then we have a neighbor who’s in a motorcyle group that’s known for being bad, but he and his buddies are very nice and friendly!!! It’s so funny becuase these big guys on Harley’s will wave to you when they go by!!

  395. Lena on March 29th, 2009 2:13 pm

    Yeah, I’m a cheerleader, and wait till you see some of the clothes I wear.

    I hope to one day own all the historicals, but next on my list are Molly and Rebecca IF I like her. And that is a big IF. If not, I’ll get her after I get Julie like 5 years from now.

  396. Abby on March 29th, 2009 3:35 pm

    im not good with the numbers of the JLYs, but thats not my point. my next AG will be black skin, brown eyes, curly dark hair. im not black or anything, but my reading buddy at school looks just like her. im gonna get her and name her Natile.

  397. Abby on March 29th, 2009 3:36 pm

    My mom might let me get the sweet kitten heels or another pair of shoes since theres free shipping.

  398. Lena on March 29th, 2009 3:37 pm

    BTW, Abby, that’s 26.

    AGPlaythings has a good guide to their numbers, click my name, then the year the doll came out (most came out in the first year)

  399. Lena on March 29th, 2009 3:38 pm

    Actually, haha, just click the guide. It has them all.

  400. priscilla on March 29th, 2009 3:44 pm

    selena,they had chrissa! she’s very cute!

  401. Lena on March 29th, 2009 3:47 pm

    K, it’s back to LJ.

  402. Abby on March 29th, 2009 4:21 pm

    Anyone still on? and thanks lena that helps me out alot.

  403. Lena on March 29th, 2009 4:33 pm

    I don’t think your on anymore?

  404. priscilla on March 29th, 2009 4:36 pm

    the dolls in the raffle were-nellie,gt 25?,dark skinned boy & girl bitty twins,bitty baby,kit & treehouse,and kit & ruthie!

  405. sarah on March 29th, 2009 5:53 pm

    Abby, my BFF looks just like the dark skinned, curly hair, and brown eyed doll, aka #26. She’s a really pretty doll, she looks like a Nicole to me, maybe cuz that’s my friends name, lol.

  406. Lena on March 29th, 2009 6:04 pm

    Actually, 26 has amber eyes.

  407. priscilla on March 29th, 2009 7:08 pm

    amber is very close in color to brown,so it can be easiy confused.

  408. Lena on March 29th, 2009 7:14 pm

    No, REAL amber is a golden color, but on 26, I see how it can be confused. Specially since AG calls her eyes “brown” *rolls eyes*

  409. Selena on March 29th, 2009 10:28 pm

    BOUNA NOTTE!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D ( hey lena, when do I – and priscilla! – get to meet Skye?????????????)

  410. sarah on March 29th, 2009 11:01 pm

    Selena, I just watched the movie Australia and it had some parts where they talked about Pearl Harbor and showed the japanese bombing the people (including a whole school of children). It made me super sad and kind of angry, so I know how you feel about the japanese doing that. And to think it was all because some stupid misunderstanding (isn’t everything?). Japanese people are very nice, so I’m not stereotyping them (thx 4 teaching me that word Lena, lol!!) It’s just super sad this had to happen, sigh. Whenever I watch movies that have war scenes it makes me cry and get veeery sad.
    BTW, could a person have amber hair, cause I think that’s what color hair I have. Its not like Taylor Swift blonde but its not brown either, could I be a blondette? LOL, I love hazel eyes, their so pretty!!!

  411. Lena on March 30th, 2009 6:57 am

    Haha, Selena, not for a while.

    I guess, but just google amber and you will see what the color is. Actually, Nellie’s hair is amber.

  412. Abby on March 30th, 2009 10:40 am

    Hey guys! gosh im sunburned bad in my face and back….. anyway, ya thanks for more info on JLY #26 Natile. i feel so bad right now. i have friends coming for a visit and they wanna go to the beach but both me and my brother cant!! were sunburned horribly!! :(

  414. Lena on March 30th, 2009 3:50 pm

    I hope you get better soon, Abby!

    I’m annoyed. FAO Shwatz in Tampa is just a corner of Macy’s. Sigh, I have to order online….

  415. Ashleigh lynn on March 30th, 2009 4:38 pm

    hey shes cute i might get her

  416. Selena on March 30th, 2009 5:32 pm

    aww!! sorry lena!!!! so you had to drive an hour for nothing….

  417. Lena on March 30th, 2009 5:36 pm

    Well, no, I enjoyed a nice Thai chicken wrap from a place that’s only in Tampa.

    Other than that, I’m annoyed.

  418. Abby on March 30th, 2009 6:08 pm

    thanks for the get wells! good news! i got to go to the beach but i had to have sunblock!

  419. Sydney on March 30th, 2009 7:22 pm

  422. Chrysanthamum on March 30th, 2009 7:53 pm

  423. Abby on March 30th, 2009 8:03 pm

  425. Holly on March 30th, 2009 8:32 pm

    does anyone have chrissa? im seriously thinking about getting her and want to know the good and bad things about her. thnx

  426. Lena on March 30th, 2009 8:47 pm

    Hey Holly, go on AGPlaythings.com, click the forum, and scroll down to reviews. Click GOTY then Chrissa. You don’t have to be a member to see them.

    I don’t recommend you join, as it is an adult collecting forum.

  427. sarah on March 30th, 2009 8:52 pm

    It’s kind of cold to go to the beach!!! Maybe if you wear a wetsuit??? My uncle always surfs even when its freezing!! We live about a half hour from the beach, usually I just go to swim, so that’s why it would be kind of a waste to go all the way down there just to swim in freezing water!! My brother has a wetsuit that doesn’t fit him anymore, so maybe I can use it!!! O yeah, we went to the beach and camped on this cliff that looked down onto the beach, it was gorgeous. I would go out at night and tilt the chair back and look at the stars and the ocean, it took my breathe away!!! Chrysanthium, you HAVE to go to the beach, just talking about it makes me all excited, LOL!!!

  428. sarah on March 30th, 2009 8:54 pm

    Let me just say Char’s Chrissa doll looks beautiful, so if you have the $$$$, I think you should get her!! I love how she has dark hair and then blue eyes:)!!

  429. madison on March 30th, 2009 9:04 pm

    i get to go to ag b&b this weekend for wearing a dress and being girly for 1 day yay!!!

  430. sarah on March 30th, 2009 9:49 pm

    LOL madi!!! Yeah, b4 I became a girly-girl I always wore my hair in a pony tail, and my Mom would be like “If you wear your hair down for a day, I’ll get you ______”
    (something I wanted), and my friend who always wore her hair up too, her mom tried to bribe her and said she would buy her something from AG if she wore her hair down. She wouldn’t do it though, too bad cuz she has beautiful hair, anyway congrats Madi!!

  431. Ashleigh lynn on March 31st, 2009 5:14 am

    How is everyone I havent been on in ages.

  432. Lena on March 31st, 2009 7:54 am

    Hi Ashleigh! Wow it’s been long!

  433. sarah on March 31st, 2009 10:20 am

    Sup home dawg Ashleigh!!!! LOL, welcome!!!

  434. Marcia on March 31st, 2009 11:35 am

    Hi Ashleigh! Glad your back on again.

  435. sarah on March 31st, 2009 1:46 pm

    i love her! though i miss samantha!

  436. sarah on March 31st, 2009 1:47 pm

    i luv her

  437. R. Anne on March 31st, 2009 2:31 pm

    Hi everyone!
    I am R. Anne (not allowed to share my real name) and I am new to DD’s. I am a first-time homeschooler in the 9th grade **edited by mod to remove age**. I have been an on-and-off AG fan since I was eight. Now, I am 100% obsessed with them, and I think I love them now more than I ever did before! I have Kirsten (2003), Samantha (2005) and Nellie (2006) as of right now, but Lissie is on my 15th b-day wish list and Addy is on my 16th. I like Josephina and Rebecca a lot too – they are up for consideration.
    Anyway, I am super excited about Rebecca. She seems like a combination of a lot of characters [Kittens – Kirsten, Factory exploitation – Samantha, Teaching friend read/write English – Samantha, Ana is new immigrant to the country - Kirsten…the list goes on…], but at the same time, I find her to be extremely unique! I usually like the PM dolls much better than the M ones, but now I am re-thinking that!

  438. R. Anne on March 31st, 2009 2:56 pm

    Also – I collect antique dolls in addition to the AG’s. I buy them off of Ebay (I go for the cheaper ones as the ones in like-new condition can reach 2,000+). I prefer dolls thar have not been repainted and retain as much of their original clothing/body as possible. To date, I have 5:
    Emmeline “Emilie” c. late 1930’s-very early 1940’s (my maternal grandma’s doll), Minerva “Hetty” c. 1895,
    Sonja Hennie “Sonie” c. 1937 (an original Sonja Hennie figure skater doll – I am a figure skater),
    Celeste “Cealey” c. 1890,
    Kai c. 1930’s.
    I also kept two of my childhood dolls; though I gave away all of my childhood Barbie’s and baby dolls…

  439. priscilla on March 31st, 2009 4:46 pm

    hi ashleigh! wow,u haven’t been on for a while now! we all missed you!!! what do u think of rebecca?

  440. pioneerfan04 on March 31st, 2009 5:36 pm

    hey guys! th last time i got on was in jan!!!!!!!!!!! omg!!!!!

    ok, who thinks they should make a movie for kirsten and make a bff for her??????

    please write inif you do or not! thnx!

    p.s. i’m making a website, and i’ll tell y’all when it’s ready!!!!!! it’s a wetpaint webpage!!!!

  441. pioneerfan04 on March 31st, 2009 5:38 pm

  442. kali on March 31st, 2009 6:23 pm

    i really can`t wait to she her in doll form!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!8]

  443. Abby on March 31st, 2009 6:27 pm

    Hi asleigh?? im sure i know you…..

  444. Abby on March 31st, 2009 6:28 pm

    YAY ME!!! it never rained last night yipeeeee!!!!!

  445. sarah on March 31st, 2009 6:28 pm

    I know you didn’t ask me Priscilla, but I’m still a bit disappointed that she didn’t have black curly hair *grumble*. Does anyone think her meet outfit looks like the retired sugar plum coat? Anyone? But now that I’ve seen Rebecca’s picture, I can’t really think of her looking any different! I can’t wait for the doll version to come out, I hope she doesn’t have the classic mold, then she would look too much like Samantha, but whatever she looks like, she’ll definenetly be cute, like all the other AG’s AND WHY IS MY DOES MY WORD DEFINETELY HAVE A RED LINE UNDER IT?!?! ISN’T THAT HOW YOU SPELL IT?!?!?! whoa, I’m havin’ a bad day………

  446. Abby on March 31st, 2009 6:42 pm

    I might get an outfit or shoes!!!

  447. Sallie on March 31st, 2009 6:43 pm

    Yeah I think it would be awesome if they made a doll that had black curly
    hair, green eyes and freckles… ag never makes anything new *sighs*

  448. priscilla on March 31st, 2009 7:00 pm

    sallie,me too! that sounds like her name should be chloe!

  449. priscilla on March 31st, 2009 7:01 pm

    and she could be from medevial times,like felicity,but a little different!

  450. Abby on March 31st, 2009 7:13 pm

    Ive actually changes my mind. ibe decided ill get Chrissa instead of JLY #26 Natile. i have like forever to get Natile wjile Chrissa is only here for one year.

  451. Lena on March 31st, 2009 7:35 pm

    Felicity’s not mideival. She’s colonial. I’d love a girl with black hair and green eyes…

  452. sarah on March 31st, 2009 7:46 pm

    I’d love a girl with black hair and green eyes toooooo!!! She would be so pretty, I think that’s what Becca should look like!!! They only have one doll with green eyes, why did they have to make a doll so similar to Samantha?? (although I do luv Sam!) WHY? WHY? WHY???????? Don’t they realize they would make more money if they made a doll that looked unique like that??

  453. Lena on March 31st, 2009 7:47 pm

    Beacuse most girls have brown hair and brown eyes.

  454. Holly on March 31st, 2009 8:19 pm

    o.. HEY ASHLIEGH!!!! i like so missed u!! :lol: did u ever get sonali?

  455. Selena on March 31st, 2009 10:11 pm

    ya although if they DID make a black haired green eyed historical, I’d rename her Ellie (thx again lena!!) !! I hope they make a ^ historical, and not a today (uggh JLY) doll, b/c my mom won’t let me get any JLYs!!

    BOUNA NOTTE!!! (still preparing to meet Skye!!!) ; )

  456. Lena on April 1st, 2009 6:47 am

    If they did make black hair, green eyes…….. I’d buy her and turn her into a boy. That’s right. I so would.

    Of course he’d need the Josefina mold though…. cause he has pouty lips…….

  457. pioneerfan04 on April 1st, 2009 7:31 am

    felicity is not from medieval times, she’s from colonial times.

  458. pioneerfan04 on April 1st, 2009 7:33 am

    i’m gonna get rebecca and another doll, maybe chrissa or gwen or sonali, but i might get kit or emily or molly… i gotta get 2 school l8r y’all!

  459. priscilla on April 1st, 2009 7:47 am

    i know she isn’t ,i just wanted my doll to be.

  460. Peyton on April 1st, 2009 9:46 am

    Peyton—I ordered Sonali! And she should get here Friday!
    (This is not an April Fools!)

  464. Chrysanthamum on April 1st, 2009 5:26 pm

    i wanted pierced ears more than anything so i finally got them pierced when i started elementary school.

  465. Chrysanthmum on April 1st, 2009 5:33 pm

  466. sarah on April 1st, 2009 6:00 pm

    and gorgeousss i know i said that already but its just sooo true ! hehe

  476. Caitlin on April 1st, 2009 10:37 pm

    I WAS thinking about changing my girls into their spring outfits now that it’s actually April, but then it snowed. SNOWED in APRIL!!!! And no this is not an April Fools joke. It was kind of cool, but also kind of weird. My mom really wants the weather to be sunny, and I think everyone else does too. Most of the dolls are still in their Christmas or winter ourfits!!

  477. Lena on April 2nd, 2009 7:08 am

    Catlin, Fl’s been hot for ages. I’ve had time to dress my girls in their birthday clothes, redo their hair (once a month I spray it with braid spray), and today they change into meet clothes. Kinda weird that it snowed where you are!

  478. Sallie on April 2nd, 2009 7:55 am

    Hi Ashleigh!!! Before I ever posted on here I watched your conversations… did Bree get banned?

  479. sallie on April 2nd, 2009 7:58 am

    This is random, but… who likes mashed potatoes? The way my mom makes them are SO heavenly… she follows all the directions… they
    taste like SO good *sighs longingly* :)

  480. Lena on April 2nd, 2009 9:28 am

    I like them. My mom and I make them from scratch (as in, they are whole potatoes at the beginning) and we usually add some sort of gravy to them.

  481. AG FAN on April 2nd, 2009 9:49 am

    hi everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  482. priscilla on April 2nd, 2009 2:01 pm

    hi,i have strep throat right now…anywho,sallie,i love mashed potatoes too!

  483. R. Anne on April 2nd, 2009 2:34 pm

    I love mashed potatoes, too! My mom makes them from scratch as well. We only have them like once a year, though – on Thanksgiving. Last year, they didn’t have the right consistency…something was off about them. Still pretty good, but it made me sad. We are vegetarians so we use this mushroom gravy thing which tastes horrible – ick! I like mine plain, as my mom mixes them with butter, milk, and a dash of salt before serving them. Yummmm…I’m hungry now! Going to go make some popcorn now bye!

  484. R. Anne on April 2nd, 2009 2:36 pm

    And my ex-babysitter (current friend) makes the best mashed potato casserole EVER! Layers of mashed potato with melted cheddar cheese with a think layer of cheese on top all baked and hot…yummy!

    Anyone here besides me a vegetarian?

  485. Lena on April 2nd, 2009 2:49 pm

    R. Anne, you still on?

    No, I’m not a vegetarian, but I hardly ever eat meat (like once a week).

  486. Holly on April 2nd, 2009 3:38 pm

    i dont like meat, but ill eat it. i rather have all veggies

  487. Sallie on April 2nd, 2009 5:29 pm

    Oh, is my family carnivours? Yes!! We eat like meat every day soo…
    this is random again quiz: :) or 8)

  488. Starr on April 2nd, 2009 5:30 pm

    Interesting topic of conversation…..mash potatoes…
    Priscilla, what a coincidence, I think I have strep too because my throat really hurts and I’m SO tired, but I cannot afford to get sick because of all the stuff I will miss! I have a big deadline tomorrow that I really need to work on, I’m skipping soccer tonight because i’m tired/throat hurts/have loads of hmwk.

  489. Sally on April 2nd, 2009 5:32 pm

    Umm….. This does help A LOT on the doll but more picyures speak A LOT more words!

  490. priscilla on April 2nd, 2009 7:03 pm

    r.anne,my family are all vegetarians,but we eat stuff like gravy,just not meat,but sometimes i’ll eat chicken nuggets at like a birthday party or something if that’s all they have.

  491. Sallie on April 2nd, 2009 7:11 pm

    ;) :) 8) :#

  492. Sallie on April 2nd, 2009 7:12 pm

    :) ;) 8) i can make 3!!!

  493. kiah on April 2nd, 2009 8:05 pm

    hi, im really sorry i havent been on in a while my internet wasnt working, anyway

    I GOT JESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i got her today in the mail, so yay i gotta go now sorry im never on for more than one post, im just so busy, so BYE!!!!!!!!

  494. R. Anne on April 2nd, 2009 8:41 pm

    Same here, priscilla. My brother and I have been vegetarians our whole lives and heve never tasted meat/fish/all that stuff before. My mom and dad were once ones, too, but my dad takes fish oil pills and my mom does that and eats fish, but she’s reconsidering. We don’t eat meat, even if it’s all they have, and that really limits the choice @ restaurants and things like that. Oh well…

  495. R. Anne on April 2nd, 2009 8:56 pm

    You got Jess – that’s awesome! I always thought she was very pretty and had a cool story. Enjoy your new doll!

  496. sarah on April 2nd, 2009 9:45 pm

    yeah, I agree with Starr, interesting conversation……….. I’m in no way whatsover a vegitarian. I really like chicken, salmon, and some kinds of steak, but I eat like one of those once a week. But like tonight I had subway with ckicken in it, and then like every so often my Grandpa will cook salmon or we’ll have chicken from the oven or whatev. I HATE HATE HATE veggies, no affense to people who like them. I have to force them down my throat or smother them with hidden valley before I can eat them. OH, wait I had veggies tonight! That’s right I had lettuce on my sandwhich! Yipee!!! So you see it would be IMPOSSIBLE for me to be a vegitarian, although I really don’t like beef. I think someone mentioned on here before, why be a vegitarian just to save animals, I mean there already cut up and prepared at the store anyway, but I know some people are just vegitarians cuz they don’t like meat. Ok, well I’ll stop talking now, LOL, I think my post about meat is long enough *wink wink*. Buh-Bye!

  497. sarah on April 2nd, 2009 9:50 pm

    Whoa that was longer than I thought……………….

  498. sarah on April 2nd, 2009 10:36 pm

    I clicked on the Delilah Noir ad at the top, I love her story!!! Its really cool!!! I sometimes feel how she feels except in like a different way. GTG now!! Talk to everybody tomorrow!!! Cya!!

  499. chrysanthamum on April 2nd, 2009 11:10 pm

    i loved Jess’s story. her parents are archeologists and i have an interest in archeology.

  500. priscilla on April 3rd, 2009 7:22 am

    kiah,have fun with jess! i have her,she’s a gorgeous doll! and her book is really interesting too.

  501. Lena on April 3rd, 2009 1:40 pm

    I love Jess, and I will get some eventually to make into custom dolls, but Jess herself has forever been ruined for me. Now when I look at her, all I think of is Angry Jess. As much as I love AJ, no Jess will ever be as awsome as her. Wow, I ramble when I’m on medication……

  502. Selena on April 3rd, 2009 1:54 pm

    huh??? what’s angry jess?????

    YAY!!! I’M BACK!!! after 3 very busy days!
    ok, i don’t feel like posting about meat, so just dito what sarah said.

  503. Selena on April 3rd, 2009 1:54 pm

    8)

  504. Lena on April 3rd, 2009 2:16 pm

    AJ is a moderator on Playthings, she’s too complicated to describe.

  505. Lena on April 3rd, 2009 2:20 pm

    Not to mention Char would hurt me if I did……

  506. Char on April 3rd, 2009 2:29 pm

    Yes, let’s leave that at Playthings….

  507. sarah on April 3rd, 2009 3:37 pm

    I’m not getting the whole angry jess thing, but whatever, I’ll just leave it at that like Char said;).

  508. madison on April 3rd, 2009 4:19 pm

    starr what happened to your blog???

  509. Sydney on April 3rd, 2009 4:55 pm

    awesome!!! i’m going to sooooooo get her!! :) :’)

  510. Selena on April 3rd, 2009 6:30 pm

    oh… that angry jess!! Now tat i think about it, i remember seeing some of her posts on there…..

  511. priscilla on April 3rd, 2009 7:08 pm

    Hi everyone! Im leaving Florida tomorrow. :( i want Chrissa really bad but since were on vacation, my parents wont have time to order her anyway. maybe my parents will give me money for Chrissa but i dont think so because they would have to give my brother $100 too.

  515. Abby on April 3rd, 2009 8:31 pm

    Hey Madison!

  516. Selena on April 3rd, 2009 9:47 pm

  523. Zoe on April 4th, 2009 8:02 am

    Oh, and guess what!! Me and my family is going to LA this summer! I HAVE to ask to go to the AG place! :)

  524. Lena on April 4th, 2009 8:21 am

    Pioneerfan, no they are NOT making an Ana doll come out with Rebecca.

    AGFan, AJ is so NOT someone you want to meet.

    Chrysanthamum, I have Ling and Lulu (soon to add Gia) and they are so pretty! They each have different face molds (except Gia and Pita, who have the same one) and are 21 inch tall, but fit most Ag clothes, although historical clothes are a little short, as are pants. But they are pretty and well made, and their eyes have amazing depth. They are good for playing AG’s older sisters or friends too!

  525. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 9:10 am

    thnx lena!!!!!!!!!!

  526. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 9:10 am

    NO AJ.

    Period.

  530. Lena on April 4th, 2009 9:45 am

    Forget I mentioned her.

  531. Starr on April 4th, 2009 9:57 am

    Madi & Priscilla—What she probably means is that the blog is not on Starr’s profile, but it is on Rose’s. I blog when I’m signed into Rose’s account, but I have a personal one that is “Starr”. And I’ve just been lazy and not making my name a link anymore, but now it is…And yes, I got Sonali, and I’m super happy with her!

  532. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 10:09 am

  533. Lena on April 4th, 2009 10:14 am

    I’m on

    Really? I love KK’s. Oh, well, to each his own.

  534. Starr on April 4th, 2009 10:53 am

    I think Karito Kids are really cute and if I could get one I’d get either Ling or Pita…..

  535. sarah on April 4th, 2009 11:14 am

    Hey everyone!!!

  536. Peyton on April 4th, 2009 11:21 am

  537. priscilla on April 4th, 2009 12:07 pm

    pioneerfan04,my cousin has isabel and she’s really pretty! you should get one! I want kathleen or ceceile. and i want luna from karito kids.

  538. Lena on April 4th, 2009 12:17 pm

    Luna? There is no KK that’s named Luna. Did you mean Lulu or Ling?

  539. Ashleigh on April 4th, 2009 1:03 pm

    omg marcia i havent talked to you in forever i remember when doll diaries was new and i joined and met u guys

  540. sarah on April 4th, 2009 1:10 pm

    what are karito kids? What do they look like?

  541. Caitlin on April 4th, 2009 1:23 pm

    For a birthday two years ago I got the entire set of the Girls of Many Lands dolls with their books and display stands (my parents teamed up with my grandparents to get it on ebay for me!!) and I absolutely ADORE them!!! They are so pretty and amazing. Their outfits are absolutely gorgeous and the detail on them is breathtaking. I like Leyla, Kathleen, Cecile and Neela best. But Spring Pearl is up there too! The books are very good as well, so at least read the books if you can’t get the dolls because they are so good! I would highly reccomend getting one.

    Also, did anyone else notice that they retired Felicity’s spring pinner dress (the pink one with the apron you pin on) two days ago? And a few months ago they retired Elizabeth’s summer dress (the green one with white hat) without so much as a peep? I hate it when they retired outfits and don’t tell us they’re going to!! It’s so upsetting because we don’t get a chance to buy the outfits before they ramdomly retire them!! I emailed them a complaint. What do you guys think about this?

  542. Caitlin on April 4th, 2009 1:24 pm

    wow, that last comment was longer than I thought it would be!!!

  543. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 1:28 pm

    i agree with you caitlin. they retired felicity’s baby sis polly too, and i wanted her so bad!!!! and also that babysitter baby!!!!!!! i loved them and they didnt even say anything about retiring them!

  544. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 1:28 pm

    i want isabel, cecile, and kathleen so bad! ur sooooooo lucky caitlyn!

  545. sarah on April 4th, 2009 1:31 pm

    awwww, I wanted Elizabeth’s green spring dress!!! And baby Polly!! It’s so not fair! Your right, they should’ve given us a heads up like they did with Samantha!! Maybe they’ll be making new dresses for her so they had to retire a few old ones?

  546. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 1:32 pm

    should i save up enough money 2 get 2 ag dolls AND a GOML from ebay??????? i think i should. i definitely cant get kathleen cuz she is $450, but maybe isabel or cecile! i read a little of cecile’s book, and i loved it! i also read some of isabel’s book, too and i also loved it! i really want kathleen, tho, since she’s irish like me, but i guess i’ll have 2 wait until sum nice ebay seller posts her for a low price. oh, wait, i’m gonna go 2 amazon rite now! brb!

  547. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 1:34 pm

    omg they have isabel, kathleen, and cecile on amazon!

  548. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 1:34 pm

Her book is amazing as well. I’m taking French in school so I love her story. The only other place I know of the buy them might be craigslist.

I have about twenty, and they even have a series called Dear Canada!! Can you believe that? I have three of those books. My favorite Dear America books are Seeds of Hope, A Coal Miner’ Bride, Mirror Mirror on the Wall, Dreams in the Golden Country, and A Time for Courage. I have also read the Royal Diaries series.

  562. Caitlin on April 4th, 2009 2:50 pm

    well, I have to go get ready, I’m so excited because I’ve never seen Swan Lake before!! Bye for now everyone!!

  563. Selena on April 4th, 2009 3:02 pm

I own it along with Across the Wide and Lonesome Prairie. I have read all the 1800s ones, except for My face 2 the wind. west 2 the land of plenty, and valley of the moon. i want 2 read my face 2 the wind, tho. i love history, and my fave time 2 learn about is the 1800s. i have all sorts of books on the 19th century. I just love that way of life in that time.

  565. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 3:11 pm

    btw caitlyn- ur so lucky ur going 2 c swan lake!!!!!! i went 2 see the nutcracker during Christmas– it’s our family tradition 2 go downtown every christmas and see it! i’ve always wanted 2 c swan lake, and ur soo lucky!

  566. sarah on April 4th, 2009 4:03 pm

    Swan Lake as some beautiful songs, your really lucky to go!

  567. Lena on April 4th, 2009 4:13 pm

    Hey, I just got back from work, Sarah, KK’s are 21 in dolls from around the world, but they wear modern clothes. I love them.

  568. pioneerfan04 on April 4th, 2009 5:23 pm

    omg omg!!!!!!!!!! my mommy just bid on cecile on ebay, and we’re the highest bidder so far!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! there’s only 1 other bidder besides us, so hopefully we’ll get her!!!!!!!!!!! wish me luck!!!!!!! :mrgreen:

    oh, and caitlyn– a time for courage is also 1 of my fave DA books 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! have u read i walk in dread?????? i dont really wanna read it, because it looks kinda creepy, but maybe nxt year…

  570. Lena on April 4th, 2009 5:27 pm

    Pioneer Fan, good luck!

    I Walk in Dread is really not scary. The main girl (I can’t remember her name) is pretty sure the girls who are accusing people are making it up. (which they were)

  571. Selena on April 4th, 2009 5:34 pm

    huh??

  572. Lena on April 4th, 2009 5:39 pm

    Selena??? What do you mean??

  573. priscilla on April 4th, 2009 6:15 pm

    my mom said she ordered me a surprise from ag! i’m so excited,i’ll tell you when it comes!

  574. priscilla on April 4th, 2009 6:25 pm

    lena,i’m sorry,i put in the wrong name,i meant to say i wanted PIPER not luna. do you want her?

  575. priscilla on April 4th, 2009 6:26 pm

    selena,what are you confused about? maybe i can help?

  576. Lena on April 4th, 2009 7:34 pm

    I want all the KK, lol. Yeah, Piper’s on my wishlist, specially since I can make her into Julie’s older sis, Tracy.

  577. Caitlin on April 4th, 2009 7:51 pm

    I am back!! Oh it was amazing!!! The Eugene Ballet Company put it on, and it was so wonderful!! The costumes were gorgeous, and the dancers were superb! It was really very lovely and I adored it. They were so graceful and it was so romantic, especially the very end when the prince kills Robsart and he and Odette get to live happily ever after (apparently this isn’t true to the original story however and in the original story the prince and Odette die??) but it was beautiful and amazing!!

    Yes I have read I Walk in Dread and it really isn’t that bad like Lena said. There are some suspenseful parts but other than that it’s ok. I personally believe the girls were making it up too after reading many books and watching TV programs on the subject. But I guess we’ll never really know FOR SURE becuase all those people are dead now anyway. I like just about any time period in history before 1920. Sigh, I have to babysit at 6:30, but my two best friends get to come with me so it’s not all that bad!!

  578. Abby on April 4th, 2009 7:56 pm

    Happy almost Easter everyone! hoping for $95……. Please must have money from bunny…..

  579. Abby on April 4th, 2009 7:57 pm

    Hi Caitlin!

  580. Lena on April 4th, 2009 8:28 pm

    Actually, Ann Putnam (one of the girls) admitted she made it up, and it’s on record.

    Yeah, Odette and the prince die in the original.

  581. sarah on April 4th, 2009 8:32 pm

    Oh yeah, Caitlyn, isn’t the original story line just terrible? I don’t think they should’ve died, but at least you got to see the happy one where they live happily ever after:)!! Well I guess the original story line wasn’t terrible, just sad. I’m pretty sure there’s another story line (maybe the original or 2nd to original?) where the prince and odette both turn into swans and fly away together. So it was a ballet with no talking? Like the Nutcracker? Your so lucky you got to see it!!

  582. Lena on April 4th, 2009 8:39 pm

    Sarah, ballet generally has no talking…

  583. mareith on April 4th, 2009 8:57 pm

    wow,her dress looks similar to samantha,and i just won in ebay most of samantha dress collection,.hehhe,just happy about it.

  584. Selena on April 4th, 2009 10:32 pm

    *giggles uncontrolubly* (lol idk how to spell!!) I was trying to figure out that walk in dread thingy… is it a book or something???
    if i could i would make a target w/ Kain (who the- neverminD!) in the middle!! ;)
    I LOVE PIPER!! she’s my fav…

    BOUNA notte!!!! hey have any of you played any of the zelda games for nintendo?? orcarina of time is the best !!!!!!! (hey if i did the mary sue test, i would put yes to meeting skye…???? *anglelic face* )

  585. Lena on April 5th, 2009 8:22 am

    No, but I have played the original Final Fantasy I, and there’s a tombstone in the elf village that says “here lies Link” I laughed….

    I Walk in Dread is a Dear America book about the Salem Witch Trials.

    My fave KK are Gia and Zoe, but then again….. Gia’s Italian, and Zoe lives in NYC…

  586. Selena on April 5th, 2009 8:51 am

    hehe!! ya that’s kinda weird… i would’ve laughed too!!! I’ve never played the STORY on the zelda games, but i do enjoy riding the horse, and jumping off cliffs…..
    (what? its fun!!0

    gia and zoe are in a tie for 2nd… i just really like piper……
    going to church!!

  587. Selena on April 5th, 2009 8:54 am

    oh, i need to read that book!! i read a really good book about the witch trials a while back.. what was the name.. i’m thinking it was black bird of willow pond or something!!
    in williamsburg we saw a “drama” (or whatev) that freaked me out (i was 6 or 7!) b/c the “witch” lady was like shrieking and stuff, but when my mom went backstage (3 yr old) the lady was being all nice and playing w/ cam (3 yr old)!!! i didn’t understand drama at the time…

  588. Lena on April 5th, 2009 8:56 am

    Oh, and may I recommend the Vladimir Tod books? They’re really good, and about vampires….

  589. pioneerfan04 on April 5th, 2009 10:11 am

    thnx lena and caitlyn!!!!! i believe they made up all the witchcraft stuff too, but i just dont really like how they sent babies 2 jail and stuff like that, since i’ve always luvd little kids and i have a 2 yr old sis, so i’m xtra sensitive bou that kinda stuff, but i’ll probly read. rite now i’m reading standing in the light. it’s so good! i love it!!
    i

  590. pioneerfan04 on April 5th, 2009 10:11 am

  608. sarah on April 5th, 2009 4:30 pm

    I used to play the piano, we quit lessons though, it got soooo boring trying to practice and I wanted to learn fun songs, but we weren’t. I’m learning to play the guitar, my bro and his friend are teaching me, I’m also teaching myself :lol: . The guitar I’m practicing on is my mom’s and its ancient!! Its much easier to play on my bro’s electric guitar, although there’s no amp, so you can hardly hear it. Oh, and I really don’t like rock music so I’m learning to play just pop and anything that comes up, I don’t want to be signified as a rocker, hehehe . I want to learn to play the violin soooooooo badly!!!! You’re really lucky you can play it, Lena!! It plays such beautiful music!

  609. rebecca on April 5th, 2009 4:36 pm

    i am so excited because there is a new doll and the first one with the same nam e as me.

  610. Lena on April 5th, 2009 4:40 pm

    Haha, then I won’t brag about how good I am.

    Yeah, I have an electric violin (as well as a normal one) and I don’t have an amp and it is SO quiet, I can hardly here if I’m in tune or not.

  611. priscilla on April 5th, 2009 5:54 pm

    my dad plays the guitar but his is REALLY old and has scratches and is not electric,i kind of know how to play a little but its just a few chords. Sallie,u can do :mrgreen: (mr.gree) like this- put a : then DON’T skip a space and put mr then DON’T skip a space and put green and : . the result = :mrgreen: by this example :NO SPACE mr NO SPACE green NO SPACE : :mrgreen:

  627. Lillee on April 5th, 2009 9:02 pm

    yo lena!! (lol) oh wow… (kain?? who the -) what game?? buffy the vampire slayer?? *giggles* (idk what that even is just have heard about it!)

    BOUNA NOTTE!!!!! :mrgreen:

    NEWS FLASH- NEWS FLASH – NEWS FLASH – NEWS FLASH – NEWS FLASH
    an unknown group of gorillas has taken mr. green captive!!!! what will we do??? we have had reports that ppl are unable to use mr. greens in comments…. fortunately, selena has been hired to go find him… don’t worry ppl, selena won’t let a day go by w/out mr. green!! prepare to see mr green again soon.
    *angelic face* “what??”

  629. Lena on April 6th, 2009 7:18 am

    Haha, pretending you’re Ellie? (that’s what you decided on right?)

    The game’s Legacy of Kain.

    And for the sake of it :mrgreen:

  630. Lena on April 6th, 2009 7:42 am

    Lillee, her cousin Ana can be considered her friend, but all evidence says they aren’t making her yet.

  631. AG FAN on April 6th, 2009 12:03 pm

    hey everyone

  632. sarah on April 6th, 2009 12:12 pm

    Haha, whoa Selena, talking about yourself in third person!!! “TAKE A CHILL PILL DUDE!!” LOL, poor mr. green!! I’ve heard he’s been taken by a group of gorillas called “The Green Gorillas”, they want him to be their mascot so they captured him, muawahahaha!! geez, this “muawahahahaha” is really growing on me :lol:

  633. sarah on April 6th, 2009 12:23 pm

    I doubt they will be making an Ana doll, because if you look at the illustration on the top, on the book Rebecca and Ana, Ana looks extremely similar to Rebecca so it would be odd if they made a doll that looked exactly like Rebecca :)

  634. Lena on April 6th, 2009 12:31 pm

    Sarah, my point exact. If they make an Ana doll in the future, they might pull an Elizabeth on us.

  635. Abby on April 6th, 2009 1:52 pm

    Hi guys im back! i just saw a contest on youtube for AG and im so entering! the idea is to solve a conflict or learn a lesson! :D

  636. Abby on April 6th, 2009 1:53 pm

    I had no school! it snowed and its APRIL!

  637. Lena on April 6th, 2009 1:59 pm

    Yeah, Abby, some scientist say global warming has reversed it self and it’s getting colder.

  638. sarah on April 6th, 2009 2:03 pm

    Really? It’s scorching here, I think I’ll go out and get a tan, that’s how sunny and warm it is! Tans aren’t for me though, lol

  639. Lena on April 6th, 2009 2:07 pm

    Huha, tanning? I live in FL! I go out side and I’m tan. Right now it’s cold and rainy though, and this winter was long and cold. (to Floridians, 60 degrees is cold)

  640. sarah on April 6th, 2009 2:38 pm

    LOL, lena, I live in California and its always hot here!! We haven’t gotten much rain lately. I used to be really tan from going outside and playing sports and stuff, but now I’m all pale because I haven’t gotten outside much. Tans just look really weird on me, that’s why I said they’re not for me. Haha, Lena, 60 degrees is freezing!!! The best temperature for me is in the 70’s. I can’t decide if I’m a sun person or a rain person, I love both but I would much rather be cold than sweating hot! But rain is so peaceful and its nice to stay inside with the heater on or going to see a movie or go shopping. My cousins live in Nor Cal, and it seems to rain more there than here in So Cal. I’ve heard Florida is pretty hot, but I guess it sounds like you’ve had some cold weather. I was planning on getting some sun today so I don’t look like a dead person walking anymore :D

  641. Lena on April 6th, 2009 3:06 pm

    Yeah, this winter was brutal (as brutal as it can get here lol)
    But our average tempature is in the 90’s so yeah.
    You live in So Cal? Lucky. I used to live in Malibu, but I was 1, so I don’t remeber it.

  642. pioneerfan04 on April 6th, 2009 4:13 pm

  653. sarah on April 6th, 2009 4:56 pm

    Yes, I live in So Cal, can’t tell which city. Wow, you lived in Malibu??? I don’t live there because our family isn’t rich, LOL, its really expensive there. I was out for 2 hours in the sun, I didn’t get a tan yet, but my hair is getting lighter :lol: .

    I’m really sorry you guys have bullies! I don’t go to regular public school, I do part homeschooling, so I don’t have bullies on my hands, they’re so mean, but its because they want to have power to make them feel in control, they have low self esteem, you wouldn’t think so, I dunno if that’s true, that’s just what I heard…..

  654. pioneerfan04 on April 6th, 2009 5:19 pm

    ya, sarah. ur right bout bullies. they just wanna feel better bout themselves.

  655. sarah on April 6th, 2009 5:27 pm

    Yes exactly, and sometimes they do it because they think it’s “cool” or just to show off how tough they are, which is bogus, because in my eyes, they would just be proving that they’re a jerk and super mean.

  656. sarah on April 6th, 2009 5:28 pm

    anyone on??????? hellooooooooooooooooo??????

  673. sarah on April 7th, 2009 1:38 pm

    Hey everyone!!! Waaazzuup?????? I got my doll Kailey dressed in the cutest Summer outfit, the weather here feels like Summer, yesterday was even hotter than today, the weather keeps having these weird mood swings. We’re supposed to rain later tonight, I don’t get it because its as sunny as it can get here! Hmmmmm…… talking about the weather, is that a good sign?
    I GTG to school soon, my bro is taking forever in the shower!!! byeeeeeee

  674. R. Anne on April 7th, 2009 2:13 pm

    It doesn’t really feel like summer here…it felt more like summer in March. It has rained almost every day so far this month, and on the days it doesn’t rain, it’s really windy (this past Saturday was SO windy) and the sky is always grey and gloomy. It’s pretty chilly, but I am still wearing shorts – so anxious for spring because, unlike every other years, we had a decent winter, complete with loads of snow!
    Who likes pizza? Favorite toppings? I had pizza for lunch and I ate only two hours or so ago and I am still thinking about that pizza and how good it tasted…

  675. R. Anne on April 7th, 2009 2:19 pm

    Anyone have the Mattel Felicity doll? I am thinking of getting her for my birthday and I am wondering if her hair is hard to take care of. Is it?
    My Kirsten and Nellie dolls have easy hair (Nellie because she has short, straight hair and I keep Kirsti’s hair braided most of the time and never brush her hair) but Samantha’s hair is so difficult! I have to un-frizz her ends and make sure that her hair stays wavy every day!

  676. Char on April 7th, 2009 2:27 pm

    R. Anne – we have the Mattel Felicity and she is beautiful. Her hair is easy to care for, but she is my doll (not the girls) so she does not get the high play that some of the others do.

  677. Lena on April 7th, 2009 2:48 pm

    R. Anne, I recomend using a spray bottle filled with water while doing doll hair (Specially Sam’s, and you will eventually have to takr Kirsten’s hair out too) it keeps the hair ot so frizzy, and NEVER use your own brush, buy at least a pet brush, if you can’t get the AG one. I also recomend using braid-spray once a month, as it keeps thir wigs nice and shiny, and also prevents frizz.

  678. R. Anne on April 7th, 2009 2:58 pm

    Thanks Lena and Char.
    Lena – what’s braid-spray? Does hair conditioning oils/crème also work?
    I do take Kirsten’s hair out sometimes, but only when it needs to be re-braided and I never leave it out long. I don’t brush it, though, and it stays soft. I designated a new hairbrush of mine to be an AG brush very recently – until then, I was using my own, not very good, I know.

  679. Lena on April 7th, 2009 3:07 pm

    Braid spray is a spary that holds braids together, but works well keeping doll hair not frizzy and shiny. I’d not recomend cremes or conditioning, because it can really damage wigs.

  680. Lena on April 7th, 2009 3:09 pm

    You can get braid spray in almost any store that sells hair care products.

  681. R. Anne on April 7th, 2009 3:56 pm

    Thanks!

  682. sarah on April 7th, 2009 4:28 pm

    Felicity is gorgeous and her hair is pretty easy to take care of!!! Plus you can do a lot with it. Has anyone noticed if they’ve gotten a new doll recently, that some of there hairs are like an inch or less long, I mean underneath all their other hair? That bugs me so badly :roll: !!!

  683. Lena on April 7th, 2009 5:29 pm

    That’s so the wig cap won’t show when the doll has pigtails. Kirsten and Molly have had them since 1986, when the dolls came out. Since then, most dolls have had them. It’s nothing new.

  684. sarah on April 7th, 2009 6:02 pm

    Really? Because my JLY doll I got in 2000 and my GOTY Kailey I got in 2003 doesn’t have it, but my doll Emily (2006) and Felicity (2007) have it.

  685. Lena on April 7th, 2009 6:08 pm

    JLY for the most part don’t, and neither do some GOTYs. But most historicals and BFs do. My Sam doesn’t have them, and I got her last year, but Kirsten, who I got a few months before, does. I know people who have been collecting since 86, and their Kirsten has the cut hairs, a lot more than mine.

  686. Lena on April 7th, 2009 6:10 pm

    For the record, my Sonali has them.

  687. R. Anne on April 7th, 2009 7:35 pm

    Do those short hairs show when the doll’s hair is down?
    My Kirsten (2003) has clipped hairs in the back, and it looks like her hair was meant to be in braids. The hair at the back of her head does not go past her neck! My Samantha (2005) does not have what Kirsten has. My Nellie (2006) might have what you are talking about, but not like Kirsten’s – it only shows when you hold the doll by the feet and look at the hair from that angle. Is that what you mean?

  688. Lena on April 7th, 2009 8:03 pm

    I have Kit, and I’m pretty sure she and Nellie have short enough hair that they are meant to have those hairs anyway.
    Kirsten has always had the cut hairs, it’s meant to be very thick in the front, and VERY thin in the back. Samantha has never had the cut hairs.

  689. sarah on April 7th, 2009 8:37 pm

    My mom says that it might be like that for the dolls that have very thick hair, they don’t want to put the exact amount of hairs in each section of the wig, if they did, it would be soooooo much hair, way to much to handle, Felicity has those most of the small hairs, probably because her hair is super thick. Ugh, those little hairs are sooo annoying!! Its really hard to do Felicity’s hair in a bun, and even French braid, and Emily has this especially annoying one that pops out every time I put her hair in a ponytail!! I’m scared to get Kailey a new head (its getting to frizzy) because I’m afraid the new wig they put on her will have those little hairs in them.

  690. Lena on April 7th, 2009 8:44 pm

    Ok, let me be clear. TRUST THE ONE WHO’S A MEMBER OF AN ADULT COLLECTING FORUM.

    Those hairs are so wig caps don’t show, and I don’t think Kailey ever had them. She is safe.

  691. Selena on April 7th, 2009 9:57 pm

    BOUNA NOTTE PPL!!! oh ya, don’t worry about the green gorillas tonight sarah, super selena took caare of them!!
    those hairs are on one of my dolls.. oh wait, i think it was jess….

  692. Lena on April 7th, 2009 10:10 pm

    BTW, Sel, check my LJ.

  693. priscilla on April 8th, 2009 6:17 am

    none of my dolls except julie and the bitty twins have them. the bitties have the short hairs on the bac REALLY BAD! u can barely put their hair up!

  694. Lena on April 8th, 2009 6:39 am

    Let me say this again.

    THE HAIRS ARE SO THE WIG CAP DOES OT SHOW WHEN THE HAIR *IS* UP.

  695. Lena on April 8th, 2009 6:50 am

    Sarah, I’m pretty sure if the old Kailey had no hairs, her new wig won’t either.

    You can always try a downy dunk: in a bowl or sink, mix one capful of Downy laundry detergent with water, and put JUST HER HAIR in. Then let it air dry. That should take care of the frizz .
    Don’t use your brush, get a new one because your oils on a wig cause friz, and I also suggest braid spray for keeping the wig fibers shiny and frizz free.

  696. sarah on April 8th, 2009 11:07 am

    I don’t use my own brush, I have a few wire AG brushes that work very well. LOL, yes Lena I heard you the first time ;) , but they are still annoying no matter what!

  697. Lena on April 8th, 2009 11:54 am

    Really? You’re not meant to put the hair up, but in braids it looks fine. But then again, my dolls are display dolls…

  698. Lena on April 8th, 2009 11:56 am

    But where’s the fun in not putting it up? lol.

    Trust me, it would be worse if the wig cap showed.

  699. Selena on April 8th, 2009 1:03 pm

    YAY!! something new of lena’s lj!!! wow. i’m alot like rosabella!!! especially the pizza one!! (yum… now i’m hungry!!) oh, and i officialy changed my favorite color to crimson… the color of fresh bl- oh great now im sounding like her!! *sigh*

    agfan, i made a new stardoll account and for once the girl actually looks OK!! it’s:
    mezzamorta247 (hehe!!) and she has black hair……. (it’s like a twist between ellie and rosie -lol- i was trying to make it ellie but it even more lie rose than i thought!!)

  700. Lena on April 8th, 2009 1:07 pm

    Hehe, my work here is done. No it;s not, I just like saying it.

    BTW, my favorite color is carmine. Yeah, that’s a color. It’s dark crimson, but I like the way carmine sounds. (rhymes with “charmine” yeah, the toilet paper.)

  701. sarah on April 8th, 2009 1:31 pm

    I bookmarked Mezza Morta so I can go to it whenever I want, YAY!!! Haha, Oh boy, now you got me started on the Charmin thing “Cha-Cha-Cha, CHARMIN!! (ULTRA!)
    BTW, what’s Stardoll? Sorry, I must sound so stupid not knowing what it is!! I’m going to look up what carmine and crimson look like, I can’t think of the color right now….

  702. Lena on April 8th, 2009 1:34 pm

    Dark red Sarah.

    And thank you!

    Star doll is just a dress up site where you can dress up celeberties.

  703. sarah on April 8th, 2009 3:34 pm

    Oh, okkkkk!! I was wondering what it was! Selena, I want to copy you and make a Rose!!! Or Tsuki on stardoll!! LOL, copycat >^-^< . Ok, GTG, reading this book I started in 4th grade and never finished, its pretty good so far, it won some kind of award… byeeeeee :)

  704. Lena on April 8th, 2009 5:10 pm

    Sarah, I could do one for tsuki if you’d like (the 100 Q thing)

    As for how she looks, think Ivy with black square glasses.

  705. Abby on April 8th, 2009 5:18 pm

    i won a poster contest!!!

  706. Lena on April 8th, 2009 5:55 pm

    Cool Abby! Which one?

  707. sarah on April 8th, 2009 5:56 pm

    That would be awesome Lena, that way I can learn more about her!!! So she has short hair like Ivy?? And glasses? *making mental picture* :D

    YAY! Congratulations Abby!!! What was it for?

  708. Lena on April 8th, 2009 6:20 pm

    Yeah, back when I was using 25 as Rose, i thought of getting Ivy to be Tsuki, and adding glasses.

    Basically, Tsuki is an a normal Japanese girl (so slanty eyes), has straight black shoulder length hair, brown eyes, and black square glasses. She’s also shorter than Rose. I’ll work on the 100Q tonight, it should be up by the time you get up tomorrow.

  709. priscilla on April 8th, 2009 6:23 pm

    Yeah, it’s a Bf collection, but from what I’ve heard, it’s for a limited time.

  712. Selena on April 8th, 2009 6:28 pm

    oohhh!! ok, charmin is my new fave color!! sounds better then crimson (actually, i’d never even heard of it b4..)

  713. Selena on April 8th, 2009 6:28 pm

  714. Selena on April 8th, 2009 6:30 pm

    ok, also soon i’ll try (to remember…) to make a LJ account!! and then do the 100qs…

  715. Lena on April 8th, 2009 6:35 pm

    Hehe, Carmine…….

    Feel free to do the Qs, they aren’t mine, just remeber to give credit to whoever made them.

  716. Selena on April 8th, 2009 6:48 pm

  720. kiah on April 8th, 2009 8:12 pm

    hi, Lena your right( i know you were talking about this along time ago, like this morning i think ) on the dolls there are those short hairs on kirsten and some other dolls so that when they are wearing pigtails, the part of the wig that holds the hair does not show. so ya i gtg bye.

  721. madison on April 8th, 2009 8:57 pm

    hihi!!!!! click my name i did a cool collage so it’s awesome!!

  722. sarah on April 8th, 2009 9:02 pm

    Oh, Lena, I thought you bought #25 to be Rose? She’s not anymore? BTW, I’m going to do the 100 Q’s and send them to all my friends, and ask them to fill it out, Except when I send them my answers, I’m going to leave Rose’s answer (*cough*Lena’s*cough cough*) to the question “would you rather be smart or funny?” because its a really funny answer .For those of you who don’t know the answer to that question that Rose answered, go to Lena’s LJ, and that is what Rose answered. Lena, I just did some FREE ADVERTISING for your LJ, hehehe….. :lol:

  723. sarah on April 8th, 2009 9:06 pm

    whoa, cool collage Madi!!! Hey, I have that blue coat Chrissa is wearing in the top row #4 photo and I have that grey and blue jacket Chrissa is wearing in the third row, #2 and #4. One’s from Michaels, and the other target, I LOVE the clothes they have there :D !!!

  724. Lena on April 8th, 2009 9:21 pm

    Yeah, I had 25, but I sold her to my neighbor (she is now a happy girl named Katie) and I bought an Ellowyne to be Rose because 1) Ell’s pretty, 2) Ell’s body is better for a sixteen year old, and 3) I want an Ell.
    I love that reply. And it’s true, the “cool” kids at school are the gas station attendants later in the book.

  725. sarah on April 8th, 2009 9:24 pm

    What’s an Ellowyne doll? Does it have a website I can go to to look at them??
    Hahahaha, the “cool” mean bullies at school will pay, YAY!! I’m gonna go find out what an Ellowyne doll is…..

  726. Lena on April 8th, 2009 9:41 pm

    Just google “Ellowyne Wilde” it should be the first site to come up.

  727. Selena on April 8th, 2009 9:48 pm

    BOUNA NOTTE!! hey plz pray 4 me BIG (like HUUUGGEE) “test” thing tomorrow, look up classical conversations (it’s memory master) wish me luck!! *crosses fingers*

    top of the morning everyone :) !!

  732. Lena on April 9th, 2009 11:47 am

    Hello, Sarah! I’m sorry I haven’t gotten to Tsuki’s 100 Qs, I’ve been busy with my chemistry project, but I’ll let you kow when I’m done with it.

  733. sarah on April 9th, 2009 12:57 pm

    Oh, its fine Lena, school comes first!!! (blah, I hate that saying but thats what my mom thinks I should live by :roll: )

  734. R. Anne on April 9th, 2009 4:50 pm

    Yuck – carmine. The word sounds nice and the color is pretty but whenever I hear that word, I think of the boiled dried bugs that extract color that goes into our food/beauty products. Sends o shiver down my spine, literally… very concerning to veggies like me. I was researching carmine today and my name should be on a link to the Wikipedia page on carmine.

  735. Lena on April 9th, 2009 5:42 pm

    Yeah, I read that, but I have other reasons to like that work. 1) Carmine is the name of my favorite comic book character 2) the name “Carmine” comes from the name “Carmela” which comes from “carmel”. Mmmmm, melted sugar.

  736. Selena on April 9th, 2009 6:40 pm

  737. Lena on April 9th, 2009 6:58 pm

    Congrats Selena! Although I’m sorry for your brother.

  738. sarah on April 9th, 2009 7:57 pm

    What do you mean you did it Selena? Did what? What did you make it in to? Whatever it was, C*O*N*G*R*A*T*U*L*A*T*I*O*N*S :lol: !!!!

  739. Selena on April 10th, 2009 9:06 am

    haha thx sarah!! i’ll be on l8r…

  740. Bookworm on April 10th, 2009 10:57 am

    Rebecca looks like an exciting doll. I just hope she looks pretty. If anyone has pictures of the doll, PLEASE send them in!

  741. Lena on April 10th, 2009 11:11 am

    I don’t think there are pics of the doll yet. My cousin works at AG, I know she has pictures, but it is against policy for her to show me them.

  742. Abby on April 10th, 2009 1:42 pm

    It was a contest for my school and i drew a book called Swindle. ITS REALLY GOOD SO IF YOU HAVE NOT READ IT YOU SHOULD!!!! :)

  743. Abby on April 10th, 2009 1:47 pm

    I AM OFFICUALLY OBSSESSED WITH CHRISSA!!!!!!!!!! lol big words!

  744. Abby on April 10th, 2009 1:53 pm

    Guys i also have some terrible news….. i think i said before i was going to american girl well….. im not. my dad sent someone else to go get this car for my cousin so we wont pass AG. :( my dad also said he could not do it because it would be REALLY crowded. *cries*

  745. R. Anne on April 10th, 2009 3:00 pm

    That’s too bad, Abby. How incredibly disappointing!

  746. Abby on April 10th, 2009 5:25 pm

    Ya i know. i wanted to go again pretty bad.

  747. R. Anne on April 10th, 2009 5:52 pm

    I’ve never been to one, though I don’t live all that far away from the NYC one. Is AGP awesome? I want to go when I can drive myself there – I don’t think my parents would want to go there or take me (my dad calls my dolls stupid hehe) – and just look around. He and my mom just don’t understand!

  748. chrysanthamum on April 10th, 2009 5:58 pm

    hieveryone. happy easter. (nearly)

  749. chrysanthamum on April 10th, 2009 6:03 pm

    i had a Samantha and she is gorgeous. and her meet accessories and a couple of her outfits. i don’t have brown eyes but i have brown hair and bangs. i sold her to someone for their to have an american doll. i have Nellie and she is adorable and her meet accessories and a couple of her outfits. i do like her. i am thinking of selling that but then again i think I’ll keep her.

  750. chrysanthamum on April 10th, 2009 6:07 pm

    how come i have to press refresh so many times to see this page?
    is is my internet connection?
    im geting samantha’s velvet dress for my nellie soon. it was backorered until april. it takes over a week for me to get the ag stuff. does ups deliver on saturdays? if not ill probably have it next week.
    i want an ag horse. are there any chepaer ones?

  751. sarah on April 10th, 2009 7:02 pm

    Hi guys! I’m about to do something very important, please pray if you can, I mean you don’t have to if praying isn’t your “thing”, but keep me in your thoughts :mrgreen:

  752. Lena on April 10th, 2009 7:24 pm

    Chrysanthamum, UPS does not delived Saturday. You’ll hae to wait.
    I suggest going to Target and getting an Our Generation horse. They are MUCH better to scale and are very cheap, only about $30. They come with alot of accessories too.

  753. Jovi on April 10th, 2009 7:24 pm

    Hey girls!
    Oh wow. She’ll definately be a cute doll. Hopefully she won’t look exactly like Samantha, that way she’d be unique.
    This is so exciting, and I’m sure everybody is excited, too!

    Its nice to hear from everyone, and hopefully I’ll visit soon!
    Love ya’ll! <3

  754. chrysanthamum on April 10th, 2009 8:00 pm

    thanks lena. im going to do that.
    why is ag’s horses so expensive?they dont come with acessoires. are they flocked. are our genration hroses not foocked? it dosnt matter, because this way i can have more horses. i like horses. and ive wanted some this size.

  755. priscilla on April 10th, 2009 8:12 pm

    i luv the horses! but anywho,hav u guys heard miley cyrus’s new song butterfly? it makes me cry with joy,i luv it. please suppot her guys.

  756. priscilla on April 10th, 2009 8:15 pm

    hav u heard the song all good gifts? i luv it so much,go watch it on utube,please please please!

  757. chrysanthamum on April 10th, 2009 9:08 pm

    i just got the velvet dress. it is so pretty. im going to dress nellie and then bitty baby.

  758. Lena on April 10th, 2009 9:18 pm

    Priscilla, I won’t support someone I think can’t sing (just my opinion), but “Good Gifts” is a pretty song. My school did Godspell last year ( I played violin in the back. This was when I was still in school) and it was my favorite song to play. That and Day by Day.

    Chrysanthamum, congrats! That’s a very pretty dress and (even though I only get core outfits) I might get it one day. I still hope Rebecca’s holiday dress look like it only purple, cause I really can’t afford eBay prices lol.

  759. chrysanthamum on April 10th, 2009 9:50 pm

    thanks. i had it backordered form the website. it would be pretty in purple.
    it looks perfect on nellie, samantha, probably any doll.
    people buy stuff on ebay for such high prices lol.

  760. Lena on April 10th, 2009 9:58 pm

    That’s cause people put it out so high….
    *Points to Rebecca book covers* look at her Hanukha dress.

  761. Rach on April 10th, 2009 10:16 pm

    How do you know so much about Rebecca is she oon ebay??? When does she come out im so confused! Help me!

  762. R. Anne on April 10th, 2009 10:24 pm

    I’m going to get the retired dresses that I don’t have for Kirsten, Samantha, and Felicity for my birthday off of ebay. I hope I can win some auctions that are reasonably priced!

  763. Lena on April 10th, 2009 10:42 pm

    I don’t think any of Kirsten’s *core* dresses are retired, there are some pretty dresses they *did* retire.
    I plan to scour thrift stores, garage sales, estate sales, and flee markets for cheep Sam and Lissie clothes. If I find nothing, there’s always MCM.

  764. chrysanthamum on April 10th, 2009 11:04 pm

    are core dresses the ones from the book covers?
    and what is MCM?

  765. Lena on April 10th, 2009 11:17 pm

    The older book covers have the core dresses on them. Kirsten has not had any of them retired.
    MCM (Madison Children’s Museum) is a sale where once a year AG donates all of their returned merchandise to the museum and they sell it for pretty cheep.

  766. Lena on April 10th, 2009 11:20 pm

    Now Buona Notte, I have to add another character to my list of custon dolls I want to make, then finish the episode I’m watching, then sleep.
    Bouna Notte!

  767. sarah on April 10th, 2009 11:24 pm

    Awesome, Lena, where is MCM???? You sound like my friend, she doesn’t think Miley Cyrus can sing, but she’s mostly just mad about what Miley did, but she still thinks her voice is terrible, although I don’t think her voice is too bad, but I’m mad at Miley too :( , but anyway, the retired historical girl dresses are pretty expensive, not to be the dark cloud on a sunny day! I would count on buying the dresses they sell right now, because you never know, they could be retired.

  768. Lena on April 11th, 2009 7:18 am

    Chrysanthamum, I love you. You just be thankful you don’t have to listen to them at work ALL DAY! And the radio dial is within your reach….. but you’ll get fired for turning it…… *works in the least magical place on earth*

    Sarah, MCM is in Madison, Wisconsin.

  769. Selena on April 11th, 2009 8:34 am

    hey just fyi, i’m leaving for the airport to fly to Austen for Easter.. i’ll b back Sun. (EASTER!!) night!! lol only a 45 min. flight.. i’m just praying that we won’t have to drive (4 HRS.!) b/c of the posible (nonono!!) thunderstorms!!

    -selena, mr. green *sticks tongue out at green gorillas*

  770. Selena on April 11th, 2009 8:34 am

    hey what just happened to those other comments…??? bi!!

  771. Selena on April 11th, 2009 8:35 am

    oh one more thing that was comment 770!!! yay me!!

  772. Lena on April 11th, 2009 12:47 pm

    Woohooo! Tae Kwon Do opened again in a new location, but wow did Master West kill us today….. I didn’t even stay for staff…..

  773. sarah on April 11th, 2009 3:48 pm

    heyyyyy!! Hiiiiiii!!! Hellooooooo!!! I just painted my nails a really pretty light pink color!! yeaaa, im boreeeeeedddd

  774. R. Anne on April 11th, 2009 6:56 pm

    Anyone on?
    I am so stressed right now – I have to study and know all uses of 13 irregular verbs for Spanish for my quiz on Monday. Sympathize with me if you can, and wish me luck…

  775. Lena on April 11th, 2009 7:05 pm

    I sympathize with you R. Anne. I’m taking Latin, and I can tell you, about 10 times harder than Spanish (I took Spanish 1 last year, now I’m taking Latin 1). Trust me, learning all the declinitions, and their uses was much harder than learning the 13 irregular verbs in Spanish. So think of it this way: some one always has it harder.

  776. priscilla on April 11th, 2009 7:19 pm

    omg,my bff just called me! i haven’t talked 2 her 4 A YEAR! I MISS HER! I WAS SOOO EXCITED WHEN SHE CALLED! YAY!!!!!! i luv life!!!!!!! lol

  777. priscilla on April 11th, 2009 7:22 pm

    HAPPY EASTER! EASTER BUNNY YAY!! I DON’T REALLY CARE IF U DON’T THINK HE’S REAL BCUZ I SAW A RABBIT IN MY WINDOW ON EASTER WHEN I WAS 3 SO THERE. HAHA LOL ANYWHO HAPPY EASTER GUYS! JESUS WILL RISE TOMMORROW!!!!!!!!

  778. Lena on April 11th, 2009 7:29 pm

    *is usure what a bunny has to do with easter* Ya know those bunny’s at the store you can take your picture with? I cried when I saw it.
    Anyway, happy Easter!
    Rach, Rebecca comes out May 31. She’s not on ebay yet, and if she is, the doll’s not real. *points a few comments up to Rach’s comment*

  779. R. Anne on April 11th, 2009 7:50 pm

    I forgot to mention that those verbs are the irregulars in past tense – making it so much worse! I took Spanish in public school for elementary school and middle school, and now that I am homeschooling, I take it at my community college. Spanish 1 last semester, 2 this semester and so on. Latin is way hard, I know. Good to know, though. I would like to learn it (theoretically), but I’ll stick with Spn. – easier, and I already have a foundation of it.
    My mom is sad today – her mom died on Good Friday of last year (which was sometime in March, so it’s like a double-death day). We have a weird thing where we die on holidays: Maternal grandma on Good Friday, Maternal Great-grandpa on Christmas, Paternal grandpa on Halloween, and dog, Kito, on Valentine’s Day (he was put down on that day).

  780. Lena on April 11th, 2009 7:56 pm

    How sad! Always on holidays? My friend’s family is the opposite. Her dad was born on Feb 13, her mom December 24, and her and her brother Oct 30 (although 4 years apart.)

  781. R. Anne on April 11th, 2009 8:03 pm

    That’s pretty funny. My best friend(s) (twins) were born on December 24, too. Another ex-friend (she moved away and we lost touch) is December 26th of the previous year (all of us are in the same grade, though, and I’m in the middle @ June 25). My snooty cousin was born on Christmas. My dad was born on Friday the 13th of October! And another person I know was born on 9-11 (many years before the actual attack, though). And my brother was born on Thanksgiving ‘98 (November 26)!

  782. Jordan on April 11th, 2009 8:08 pm

    I went to the Valerie Tripp book signing in Dallas with 2 friends
    ” Victoria ” and ” Emily ‘ miss Tripp said victoria would make a good ag doll Rebecca looks exactly the same as Victoria
    how cool is that plz belive me I AM TELLING THE TRUTH

  783. Lena on April 11th, 2009 8:08 pm

    Haha, my other friend (she’s 21 now) celebrated her birthday on Thanksgiving last year (2008).

  784. R. Anne on April 11th, 2009 8:25 pm

    Lena – what dolls do you have?

  785. Lena on April 11th, 2009 8:38 pm

    I have AG Kit, Kirsten, Samantha, and Sonali.

  786. Lena on April 11th, 2009 8:46 pm

    Jordan, really? Miss Tripp had nothing to do with Rebecca. She didn’t write the books and she has nothing to do with desining. Not to be rude, but I’m skeptcal.

  787. Zoe on April 12th, 2009 7:44 am

    Happy Easter everybody! I’m going to eat breakfast w/ the fam and then go to church =)

  788. Lena on April 12th, 2009 8:17 am

    Happy Easter! I’m back from church, and now we have the traditional Easter brunch. Trust me, it’s more like dinner: soup, sausage, eggs, coffee, and cake. Five types of sausage and 4 different cakes. The poor table…. lol.

  789. pioneerfan04 on April 12th, 2009 11:49 am

    HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  790. Caitlin on April 12th, 2009 12:12 pm

    Happy Easter!! It’s only 10:09 here and we’re not going to church until 11:15, and then over to my grandparent’s house for lunch! Does anyone like peeps, the marshmallow things? I like them , but, this is kind of weird, I only like them when they’re stale!! I will get some and then open the package but leave them in my pantry for a few days, then eat them!!!! They get all hard but taste really good!!! Oh, Sombrita, Josefina’s goat came on Thursday and I absolutely love her!! She is all soft and furry, and then her legs and ears and hooves are all fuzzy. She also has a nice weighted feel and her bell actually sounds pretty, not some tinny sound.

  791. sarah on April 12th, 2009 12:17 pm

    Peeps are good, but only when I’m in the mood for them, sometimes when I’m not in the mood, they taste bad. Almost everyone I know hates peeps, I have no clue why!

  792. Lena on April 12th, 2009 12:22 pm

    I’m wierd in that I’ll stuff my face with chocolate, but any other sweet I don’t like. I haven’t eaten my own birthday cake since I was 10! So no, I don’t like peeps, but I do think they are very cute.

  793. Abby on April 12th, 2009 1:37 pm

    R. Anne yes AGP is awesome. i went to the one in Chicago. i was BEGGING my dad to take me so finally he said yes. When i was at AGP i got Kaya, Addy, and Julie.

  794. sarah on April 12th, 2009 1:38 pm

    LOL, Lena, right now I’m stuffing myself with M&M’s, I’m hungry, waiting for lunch to be served!

    HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!

  795. Abby on April 12th, 2009 2:01 pm

    im hungry too! waiting for mashed potatoes, cheesy potatoes, and ham! yum my mouth is watering. im watching matilda! my brother got it for easter! also i got lucky again!! my dad might have to meet with a head postal master in Atlanta Georgia so i might go to have a second chance to go to AGP again! but im not gonna get my hopes to high because they got to high last time! :D

  796. Abby on April 12th, 2009 2:08 pm

    lol i like M&Ms too

  797. Abby on April 12th, 2009 2:14 pm

    O my gosh I love Matilda!

  798. kiah on April 12th, 2009 3:16 pm

    hey, happy Easter everybody, i get to eat ham for dinner!!!! yay( we only eat ham twice a year, Easter and Christmas) so ya i have to eat lunch now, the time on this thing is wrong it’s only like 1:16, so ya bye!

  799. Lena on April 12th, 2009 3:25 pm

    Kiah, that’s cause this is on Centeral Time. I used to be on Eastern Time, but didn’t change for daylight saving. Anyway, that’s about 2 hours ahead of you.

  800. sarah on April 12th, 2009 3:37 pm

    Ya, we’re having ham too! And mashed potatoes, we were going to have baked potatoes but me and my brother begged for mashed, so we ended up cooking them ourselves. I’m so hungry thinking about it, I’m surviving off chocolate and jelly beans right now!

  801. priscilla on April 12th, 2009 5:32 pm

    hi guys! happy easter! i just got back from singing in choir,going 2 ANOTHER mass,eating a HUGE breakfast of potatoes,pizza,and m and ms. not exactly traditional…but anyway yeah i’m so excited bcuz today jesus rose from the dead and also i get candy,yay!!!!!!!!!

  803. Jessica on April 12th, 2009 8:20 pm

    Are we posting here? Happy Easter!
    I just posted a long thing on the Bullying Day thing. Check it out!
    PS I posted something new on our website!!! (Inner Star Weekly, I mean.)

  804. Lena on April 12th, 2009 8:31 pm

    Happy Easter Jessica!
    I read your other post, and I never got bullied, cause I was “popular”, but my friends did and it always broke my heart. Especially my friend Nashmin after Sept 11 cause she’s a Muslim. That’s part of the reason we both homeschool now. (BTW, we were in 2nd grade back then)

  805. Selena on April 12th, 2009 9:29 pm

    HAPPPPPPPYYYYYYY EASTER!!!!!! uggh i still feel like i’m going to throw up!!!! we had lamb chop…… potatoes and green beans w/ unions ALLL over…… i only ate the roll…. the boys dared me to eat the lamb so after a while, he shoved it in my mouth…. i haven’t eaten all day… why did they have lamb since today is the day
    JESUS ROSE FROM THE DEAD!!!!!
    poor lamby.. =( i don’t think i’ll ever eat meat again.. (okok, well maybe i will… but NNNEVVVVER lamb!!) uuggghhh
    fyi we went to Austin to be w my dad (SW pilot) b/c he had a trip there.. then ate w/ friends from here.. (they were there w/ g-parents)

  806. Selena on April 12th, 2009 9:32 pm

    on the bright side (besides Jesus) ,
    YAY!!! ZOE AND JESS ARE BACK!!!!! i’ve never been bullyed.. at my 1 day schools, i’m really popular (idk why) so..
    oh also, i’m not a vampire just because i refuse to eat unions!!! haha!! jk
    that reminds me, i believe in all that “mythical” stuff alot more now…. scary things happened… *breaattthhh*

  807. Lena on April 12th, 2009 9:32 pm

    Selena, lamb’s traditional Easter food. That’s what they eat in the middle east (remember, Jesus lived in Isreal)

  808. Selena on April 12th, 2009 9:33 pm

    oh, and i made a character named Helena Pstrovoski (or something like that lol couldn’t think of a name!!) in my new book i’m writing.. *sigh* yes, about vampires!!

  809. Lena on April 12th, 2009 9:34 pm

    Hmmmm… my name’s Helena……. (well my middle name is….)

  810. Lena on April 12th, 2009 9:35 pm

    I think it’s PETrovsky. Pstrovsky’s not a word in Slavic or Romanian.

  811. Lena on April 12th, 2009 9:40 pm

    Although I *do* look forward to reading your vampire book.

  812. Selena on April 12th, 2009 9:47 pm

    oh.. hehe!! idk, just wanted to make it look um.. foriegn?? lol!!! ya, PETrovsky she’s like um.. russian?? romanian??? whatev her name looks like!!

    BOUNA NOTTE!!!!!
    oh 1 more thing i realized i’m even more like rose b/c i sleep horribly (can never go to sleep!! especially in hotels..)

    oh, 1 MORE THING!! :roll:

    update your blog!! plz???!!! skye…. and we’re all dying to hear about rose..vico..

  814. Lena on April 12th, 2009 9:50 pm

    Niether can I. It’s called insomnia. I never sleep in hotels or other people homes, and even now it’s 11 here and I’m wide awake.
    Petrovsky’s Russian or Polish, more Polish cause her name’s Helena Russian’’s traditionaly don’t use that name.

  815. Lena on April 12th, 2009 9:51 pm

    I will. Tomorrow I will have time to write cause mom’s excusing me from class.

  816. Lena on April 12th, 2009 10:02 pm

    Also, i’m thinking of starting one about a Moroccan girl…. but that will wait. Rosabella comes first.

  817. Lena on April 13th, 2009 10:35 am

    Also, it’s not a blog. It’s Mezza Morta the book, I just like to put random stuff in there.

  818. priscilla on April 13th, 2009 10:50 am

    hi! OMG! I just got a SURPRISE EASTER PRESTENT FROM AG! MY MUM BOUGHT IT 4 ME! YAY!!! It was ruthie’s christmas dress and elizabeth’s holiday dress! yay!!!! THEY R SO BEAUTIFUL!

  819. Lena on April 13th, 2009 11:02 am

    That’s not insomnia. It’s when you can’t sleep every night, not just one.

    But congrats! I don’t really like Ruthie’s dress, but I’m a bit jealous you have Elizabeth’s, lol.

  820. Emmi on April 13th, 2009 11:33 am

    O M GOODNESS!!!!! There is a new doll!?!?!?! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have four dolls. Emily, Elizabeth, Julie, and Samantha. To learn more about them go to http://www.sistersx6.weebly.com. I want Ruthie, and mabey…………. REBECCA

  821. Selena on April 13th, 2009 11:34 am

    elizabeth’s holiday dress is BEATIFUL!! i finally got it for c-mas last yr… love it!!
    you’re lucky you can take naps!! some times i can close my eyes (for a while) and consentrate on the black, and sometimes i actually go to sleep, but only sometimes!!

    oh oops, i couldn’t think of what to call it!! i meant “BOOK” of course, (ok, well it’s not my fault!!)

  822. Selena on April 13th, 2009 11:35 am

    yum… i’m making pasta for lunch!! lol that was random!! I LOVE itlian food!! my fave is alfredo (chicken alfredo if the chicken tastes OK.. sometimes it’s really disgusting)
    =P

  823. Lena on April 13th, 2009 11:44 am

    Mmm… my favorite meals: chicken alfredo pasta with cannoli for dessert; chicken wraps with couscous, lentils, and baklava; and tempura shrimp udon with ginger cakes…. yum…. *drools*

  824. bella on April 13th, 2009 12:02 pm

    hey ppl! hoppy easter after day! lolz
    i got 80 bucks yesterday, and now have 105 bucks, and im savin up to get as much as Rebecca’s collection wen i go to Chicago in June! how is everybody??? i havent been on for a while :lol:

  825. Selena on April 13th, 2009 12:16 pm

    hi bella!!

    yum, that pasta ws GOOD!!!

    oops, if u didn’t understand that i meant chicken alfredo (pasta) at ITALIAN resteraunts, not the discusting resteraunts!!
    yyyyyyuuummm *drools* lena that sounds really good!! ohh i could eat a ginger cake right now!! couscous (i love spelling/saying that!!) is something i’ve always loved.. so good!!

    i understand that about the lamb, (and Isreal , etc;) it’s just so sad for the poor little lamb.. although i don’t care about anything else, (and normally not even really lamb, it’s already sitting on the shelves) b/c it’s already dead, ya know?? and ppl are never gonna stop eating meat!!

  826. sarah on April 13th, 2009 12:39 pm

    I don’t have insomnia AT ALL. It takes me like 10 minutes to go to sleep! My mom doesn’t sleep at night very well, my brother is still in bed and its 10:30, he usually sleeps til’ noon. Wow Bella, your rich (compared to how much I have) I don’t have very much money right now because I just spent a ton on a ripstik, I’ve decided I’m taking a break from buying AG things, but just for a while. I’m concentrating on getting stuff for myself, muawahahaha, I’m so selfish. JK JK :)

  827. priscilla on April 13th, 2009 12:50 pm

    lena,no that happens almost every night i just ve’nt mentione it bfor…anyhow,um,does ruthie’s christmas dress come with shoes? mine did’nt,but i thought it came with some shes,does it? i’m confused,not to sound dumb.

  828. priscilla on April 13th, 2009 12:51 pm

    oops i meant to say have’nt and mention sorry if its hard to read is it awiting moderation?

  829. Lena on April 13th, 2009 2:48 pm

    Insomnia is when you get 3 hours or less sleep a night.

    No, Ruthie’s dress does NOT come with shoes. The ones in the picture are her meet shoes.

    OMG I got Pita!!! I was at the dentist and the gift shop in the hospital had a sale of 50% off and I snagged the last Pita! (Karito Kids, BTW)

  830. sarah on April 13th, 2009 3:04 pm

    Oh, I just realized I have Ruthie’s holiday dress and Elizabeth’s holiday dress. They are ADORABLE!!! I use the shoes that my Emily doll came with, they match Ruthie,s dress perfectly. I’m not so crazy about Elizabeths shoes that come with her holiday dress, I use ones I got from the retired medivel princess outfit, but the dress itself is so cute!! Congrats on getting them! And congrats on getting Pita Lena, I didn’t know they sold them offline.

  831. sarah on April 13th, 2009 3:05 pm

    Hmm, my post is awaiting moderation too, I didn’t put any smileys or anything bad either…………..

  832. sarah on April 13th, 2009 3:06 pm

    forget it, its not anymore :)

  833. Lena on April 13th, 2009 3:06 pm

    Pioneerfan, they are not making Ana. I do know that she’s supposedly getting pet cats, a bed, a sideboard, a lunch, and school, movie, Hanukkah, and sleep clothes.

  836. R. Anne on April 13th, 2009 4:19 pm

    Lena – and continuing our family tradition, my aunt’s dad passed away yesterday, on Easter! Oh, and I love baklava, too. We go to this middle-eastern restaurant/café in Hoboken sometimes, and they make it so good there! My mom once bought some from a supermarket and it was disgusting. The nuts were rancid or something…yuck, I can almost taste it, even though the event occurred a long time ago…

  837. Lena on April 13th, 2009 4:25 pm

    The best baklava is in Epcot (BTW, I work in Epcot now) in Morocco. Mmmmm….

    Creepy. Continuing my friend’s family tradition, her brother had a baby be born today….

  838. Bree on April 13th, 2009 6:34 pm

    Hey Pioneerfan! Remember me? Hey i have to do a survey what are your guy’s 5 favorite singers?

  839. Lena on April 13th, 2009 7:02 pm

    Brandon Flower – The Killer (not as bad as the name sound)
    Ville Valo – HIM
    Amy Lee – Evanescence
    Dave King – Flogging Molly (Celtic rock, believe it or not)

    A you can see, I’m weird.

  840. sarah on April 13th, 2009 7:02 pm

    Taylor Swift
    Carrie Underwood
    OMG, soooo many!
    Celtic Women
    The Beach Boys
    I like a lot of artists songs, but these people, I like all of their songs, not just a few, if that makes sense. And then here are the people that I like a few or one of their songs.
    Brooke White
    David Cook
    Miley Cyrus
    Avril Lavigne
    Fergie
    Those are a few people whose songs I like. Sorry, don’t have all day :)

  841. Lena on April 13th, 2009 7:06 pm

    Brandon *Flowers* sorry.

  843. kiah on April 13th, 2009 10:52 pm

    Starr, i love your site/blog/whatever you call it, anyway i read that you are thinking about getting Ruthie, well i have her and she is awesome, i got her like 10 days after she came out ,she is even prettier in person, ive had her almost a year and she still has all of her curls, and i do a lot of crazy hair does on her and her hair is still perfect, and it hardly ever gets tangled, my only concern is that (this might not happen to all of the ruthie dolls but i dont know)well, her eyelashes left tiny blue marks on her face, like when she closes her eyes, where the eyelashes touch the skin under her eyes there are tiny blue specks, but you can barely see them, other than that, she is AWESOME!!!! so, ya i gotta go, bye!

    ps sorry that was so long and hard to understand

  844. kiah on April 13th, 2009 10:58 pm

    um Starr i hope you dont mind, my name is the link to your site/blog, im totally NOT saying its mine, i just think it is really cool, if you dont want me to do that i will stop immidiately, so just tell me if you dont want me to do that and i will stop, so bye

When Chrissa came out, I was the first person to be there do get the doll on the day she came out. As you can tell, I am EXTREMELY crazy about American Girl.

  862. chrysanthamum on April 14th, 2009 11:37 pm

    Review of an american doll on amazon.com:
    My then 4 year old daughter got this doll for Christmas from her grandfather. It is a beautiful doll and so much fun to dress and do her hair which is easily kept with a wide tooth comb, a spray bottle of water, and some baby oil to keep it moist and smooth it out. She loves this doll and sleeps and plays with her daily. It is a lot cheaper from the store than here. It has since lost an eyelash, which is a problem a lot of people are having with this doll. I called the company and told them my daughter couldn’t part with the doll long enough to send it to their hospital. They offered an exchange for a new doll as they informed me their dolls are 100% guarenteed. I brought it to the store, two years old, well played with, missing every part of her outfit except her dress, no book, and they gave me a brand new one in the box including the book!!!! Any company that does that gets my recommendation!

  863. Lena on April 15th, 2009 7:59 am

    Selena, they don’t exist. Yeah, they magically dissapeared.
    Chrysanthamum, while it’s true AG is pretty nice about replacing defective dolls, I’d like to point out that you don’t give a 4 year old a doll that is meant for ages 8 and up.

  864. priscilla on April 15th, 2009 9:30 am

    bree,ashleigh is her name actually,not ashlyn. but she does’nt come on anymore. however,she has a website called american girl doll questions and if you go on the old chrissa post and click on her name it’ll take you to her website. you can contact her there,so i’d definetly reccomend it.she’s actually really nice,despite your um experience with her,but yeah her website’s great.

  865. priscilla on April 15th, 2009 9:31 am

    well,she did come back on 4 like a minute one time,so she might do that again,maybe,i don’t know though.

  866. Selena on April 15th, 2009 9:47 am

    wait what magically disapeared?? sorry, i wasn’t paying attention!! lol

  867. sarah on April 15th, 2009 12:02 pm

    Hey guys!! I have to start moving stuff out of my room because we’re going to take the super old wallpaper off and paint it!! YAY!!! And I got this awesome new bedset, and this bespread thats reversable, one side is polka dots and one side is pink!!! And I got this super soft blanket to match the polka dots!! I somehow got all into pink and polka dots all of the sudden, how’d that happen…….

  868. Bree on April 15th, 2009 5:09 pm

    omg sarah i have the same blanket! Thanks Priscilla for reconmondation i’ll def. look at the web site.

  869. Abby on April 15th, 2009 7:23 pm

  875. priscilla on April 16th, 2009 10:19 am

  876. sarah on April 16th, 2009 11:20 am

    Bree, did you get the blanket at Bed, Bath and Beyond? It’s sooooo pretty and soft, but I can’t put it out til’ I put my bedspread on my bed, and I can’t put my bedspread on until I paint the walls, I can’t paint the walls until I get the wallpaper off……….

    Yay! Congrats Priscialla! I can’t remember what Ginger looks like though… :-\

  877. sarah on April 16th, 2009 11:20 am

    Bree, did you get the blanket at Bed, Bath and Beyond? It’s sooooo pretty and soft, but I can’t put it out til’ I put my bedspread on my bed, and I can’t put my bedspread on until I paint the walls, I can’t paint the walls until I get the wallpaper off……….

    Yay! Congrats Priscialla! I can’t remember what Ginger looks like though… :-/

  878. sarah on April 16th, 2009 11:21 am

    oops sorry, posted twice….. my bad

  879. priscilla on April 16th, 2009 2:46 pm

    i just got the new ag magazine! i’m going to go read it,i can’t wait!

  880. Peyton on April 16th, 2009 4:38 pm

    My cat look EXACTLY like Ginger. Same colors, same black around the eye, and same color of eyes! But her name is Sadie…I hope I get Ginger soon but I can’t decide between Ginger or Starburst!

  881. Abby on April 16th, 2009 5:34 pm

    My dog looks like Honey. my dogs a golden retriever and her name is Josie though. i love that name it was my great grandmas name.

  882. Abby on April 16th, 2009 5:47 pm

    Ive also changed my mind again. My next AG will now be….. JLY #26 Natile. now to inform you all…. i do not look like #26. i dont even have black skin. the purpose is my reading buddy at schools name is Natile and she looks like #26. i also know i have explained this before. and im very excited because my dad said he might have to meet with the head postal master of Atlanta Georgia. so you all know what that means……… AMERICAN GIRL PLACE IN ALTANTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  883. Lena on April 16th, 2009 6:45 pm

    Abby, no one says a JLY has to look just like you. That’s why I like the old name, Americn Girl Today, better. Now people think the doll has to look just like them.

  884. priscilla on April 17th, 2009 7:36 am

    i’m thinking og getting starburst or posie too…

  885. priscilla on April 17th, 2009 7:37 am

    oops,sorry i meant to write of not og,hehe.

  886. Lena on April 17th, 2009 7:59 am

    Yeah, I’m thinking Starburst too (after all, who doesn’t wamt a llama!?) But I also want Licorice because my cat Hotaru looks just like her.

  887. AG FAN on April 17th, 2009 8:15 am

    my sis has starburst

  888. AG FAN on April 17th, 2009 8:17 am

    yeah lena, my friend got her first ag last christmas. my friend has brown hair and the jly she got had blonde hair. she was like she dosn’t look like me!

  889. Lena on April 17th, 2009 9:01 am

    Actually, none of the Ag’s (any of them) looks like me. Sam comes close, but her hair’s too dark and her skin too pale. Pita (karito Kids) looks most like me.

  890. sarah on April 17th, 2009 12:36 pm

    OH MY GOODNESS! none of my posts are posting! I’ve typed them in twice!!! >:-(

  891. R. Anne on April 17th, 2009 2:12 pm

    None of the dolls look like me, either. Samantha comes closest, I guess, but my skin is a little lighter (I have really fair skin and I don’t tan). The hair and eye colors are ok, but my hair is curlier/wavier and is proportionally shorter than Nellie’s hair, but only a little shorter. My “face mold,” especially my nose, looks nothing like hers, either. I think I’m more of a Josephina mold, but that doesn’t match me all that well, either. Just more than the classic mold, I guess.

  892. Lena on April 17th, 2009 2:58 pm

    1) It’s JoseFina. It has an F.
    2) So’s mine, especially the lips. I have pouty lips, and the Josefina mold comes close.

  893. Holly on April 17th, 2009 3:26 pm

    hey. sry i havent been on 4 so long. i had knee surgery last friday. I GOT CHRISSA FOR EASTER!!!! i love her!! i want sonali and gwen too. ill probably get sonali. i dont think ill want rebecca, shes 2 much like sam. i look just like chrissa!! my mom calls chrissa my mini me. lol does any1 have sonali? is she a good doll or not?

  894. sarah on April 17th, 2009 3:52 pm

    I just realized, I the closest doll to me is Elizabeth, because of the blue eyes, blonde hair, no bangs, and the face mold. Except my hair isn’t as light, it’s dark blonde. But other than that, she’s just like me :)

  895. sarah on April 17th, 2009 3:53 pm

    Hey Lena, soooooo how’s the next chapter coming along…………………….????????

  896. Lena on April 17th, 2009 4:07 pm

    It’s not. I’ve decided to rewrite the first 30. I’m going to add more details and change some things, but the general story will be the same.

    Holly, I have her, and I love her. I turned mine into a Moroccan girl named Najwa. Her hair’s so soft and silky, but it does tangle easily, but her face is so cute it makes up for any issues I have.

  897. Abby on April 17th, 2009 5:02 pm

    I agree Lena. nobody says Natile has to look like me!! totally agree!! :D

  898. Holly on April 17th, 2009 5:39 pm

    lena- does she require a brush or a pick?

  899. katie on April 17th, 2009 6:56 pm

    I think she will look like Ruthie with a different face mold.. Bummer.

    And her description is kind of copying the Dear America book about Zipporah Feldman who is a jewish immigrant who wants to become an actress. Similar. Hmm?

  900. Abby on April 17th, 2009 7:17 pm

    Hi there Holly!! I love your profile! lol!

  901. Abby on April 17th, 2009 7:18 pm

    ok thats weird….. my name is appering starangly…. but its me! :D just a different computer!

  902. Lena on April 17th, 2009 7:24 pm

    Holly, I use a brush for her, and I can easily curl it back to normal.

  903. Holly on April 17th, 2009 8:15 pm

    abby- my website? i update it every once in a while… i guess its time 2 update….grrrrr…. jk :mrgreen:
    lena-thnx!!!

  904. priscilla on April 17th, 2009 8:26 pm

    hi guys,i carn’t really type that good bcuz i hrurt my finger REALLY bad and its really sore,but i’ll try. ok,so i did a lot of posts before,but they did’nt work so hopefullyu this one will. so yeah,i got 2 used porcalin dolls today! they need a little tlc but for the most part they’re gorgeous! also,i got new glasses today! my old ones were’nt strong enough for me to see,so i had to take an eye test last week,and today i finally got them! they’re bright pinkish-red with a lot of pretty designs! so my advice is if you have to get new glasses or get glasses for the first time,instead of dreading it bcuz opf the eye exam,focus on getting preety glasses! also,when you pick them out,make sure that they’re not too small or too big for your eyes!

  905. priscilla on April 17th, 2009 8:28 pm

    sorry about all the spelling mistakes in my last comment,my hand isn’t really working right.

  906. Starr on April 17th, 2009 8:59 pm

    Hi. I haven’t been on for a real long time, but I’ve decided only to come on if there is a new post on here. I still like Doll Diaries a lot, but I’m not going to check it everyday, only to see if there is something new. I don’t want to become addicted.
    Hello again. It rained here today, on and off and I got soaked! *says in cheesy sarcastic voice* Yeah, my bus was a little late so we had to stand in the POURING rain. I got drenched. I really hope that my soccer game is canceled tomorrow, not because I don’t want to play, but because I have something else at the same time and I don’t want to be late to that……Urg. I hope it rains tonight and soaks the field and I don’t have to go! The odd part is I really want to play soccer. Ah, the irony….

  907. R. Anne on April 17th, 2009 9:54 pm

    Ooops…just noticed the “p” I put in Josefina’s name – I was typing really fast and didn’t even catch it! Also, I don’t have bangs like Samantha…
    We had company over for dinner and I ate so much that I think I am going to burst any minute now!

  908. Lillee on April 18th, 2009 1:39 am

    I wish AG would make a Titanic doll because the storie’s WWAAYY too good to miss…and no offence, but Rebecca doesn’t sound very interesting. They should have put her like 1924, a more realistic acting date to me…but I’m not sure. But they should make a Titanic doll, my opinions.

  909. Lena on April 18th, 2009 7:31 am

    1914 *is* a real acting date. That was the beginning of movies.
    I’d love it if they made like the GOTYs only historical, to cover the “minor” events in history. Then you could get your Titanic doll.

  910. Selena on April 18th, 2009 12:38 pm

    (“tada”!!!)

    I’M BACK!! yes, i know, after all the torture of me bing gone!! ah, the pain…

    ya that’d be cool for a titanic doll!! how many times have I said that??

    when are u going to do the 100 Qs for Tsuki???????? it’s ok, i percrastonate too!! lol i spelled that wrong didn’t I??

    :mrgreen:

  911. Lena on April 18th, 2009 12:41 pm

    Procrastinate.

    Eventually. First I am rewriting the first 30 chapters to add in more detail and change some things I don’t like. The story will remain the same though.

  912. Selena on April 18th, 2009 12:43 pm

    oh.. procrastinate!!! hehe

    *sigh* eventually…. how long could that take?? *blushes*

  913. Lena on April 18th, 2009 12:44 pm

    Not sure.

  914. pioneerfan04 on April 18th, 2009 2:04 pm

    Bree-

    I missed you too! You were my first chat buddy on here! Let’s be chat buddies again!

  928. Lena on April 19th, 2009 11:43 am

    Chrysanthamum, depends on the outfit. Most historical dresses are too short. Long pants look like capris. Shirts and skirts look ok, and some shoes fit, but not all.

  929. Chloe on April 19th, 2009 1:18 pm

    i may change the name by saturday, sooooooooo… but my name on here will still be linked to it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  950. pioneerfan04 on April 21st, 2009 3:57 pm

    ok……. here are the dolls i am getting…

    - Rebecca
    - Molly or Elizabeth??????????????? Which one?????????? Help!

  951. R. Anne on April 21st, 2009 4:11 pm

    Molly or Elizabeth? You can end up getting both, but for choosing which doll you get first (since you must like them equally), consider:
    · Which time period do you like better – 1770’s or 1940’s?
    · Do you have dolls from similar time periods as one of the two dolls? If so, consider the other one.
    · Which friend would you rather have – Emily or Felicity?
    · Do you have Emily or Felicity? If you have one but not the other, you may consider getting her friend before the other doll.
    · Which character do you identify more with?
    · Which story/plot in the books for the two dolls do you like better?
    · This is what I do: I make up stories in my head involving the dolls I don’t have and see what doll needs to come first to make the plot go better. For me, this means getting Felicity and then Addy, even though I do not prefer one over the other. Also, if I know that I will defiantly want the main doll and her friend, I always get the main doll first. This is what I did regarding Samantha and Nellie.

    I love all my dolls & dolls-to-be equally, so choosing what dolls should come next and in what order is always hard.

    Wow – that was long, but I hope it helps you decide – I’ll let you know if I come up with any more. Good luck!!!

  952. R. Anne on April 21st, 2009 4:15 pm

    pioneerfan04, do you have Kirsten? I do and I love her so much – she was my first doll. I hate that Kirsten is part of the Forgotten 4 – AG had better not retire her! Love the (potential) name, by the way!

  953. sarah on April 21st, 2009 4:30 pm

    yeah, so pioneerfan, can you PLEASE tell me what kind of blog it is that you can only invite people to with their email addresses? please!?!?!? :)

  978. Marcia on April 23rd, 2009 6:37 am

    Hey Ashleigh, glad you’re back on. :)

  979. R. Anne on April 23rd, 2009 9:13 am

    Anyone on???

  980. Lena on April 23rd, 2009 9:19 am

    I am!

  981. R. Anne on April 23rd, 2009 9:19 am

    And I was also wondering if anyone has tried using a plastic steamer to get rid of the frizzies @ the bottom of the dolls hair? The hair on the heads of my dolls is neat, but the frizzies at the bottom (especially on Sam’s hair) really annoy me! I’ve seen youtube videos and read articles about this and before purchasing one and trying it out, I’d like to know if you guys have had any experiences w/ using a plastic steamer.

  982. Lena on April 23rd, 2009 9:22 am

    No, I’ve never used a steamer, and you need to be careful using it, because it might ruin the dolls hair.

  983. R. Anne on April 23rd, 2009 11:04 am

    That’s exactly what I am afraid of…
