***Just a disclosure: We do not normally spend this amount of money on items. Hence, the reason why I make most of my daughters' doll furniture and play items. However, our once a year to an American Girl store is a special tradition that we started last year. The items that our daughters and sister received this year are meant as (early) birthday presents. We do not take vacations, we usually buy most things used or on the cheaper end, coupon for everything, make items that we need for play and school, and all overall very thrifty in our lives. We save up to be able to give our daughters a special experience with their dolls. This year we were able to include my little sister and mom in the experience.
I know many people do not believe in paying high prices for items and normally, our family does not either. I am not promoting or suggesting that anyone needs to buy any of the items in this post. I am just letting my readers enjoy pictures of our new items and also posting them so that my daughters are able to share the pictures with friends.***
Oh I am so beyond jealous! I really want IVY! Thank you so much for sharing all these photos with us!
ReplyDeleteThank you for reading. ivy is a very pretty doll. We have been debating about getting her for a while. My husband is half Chinese (his family is specifically from Taiwan)so we try to buy Asian dolls when we can. My middle daughter, Lianna, in the picture with Ivy is who got Ivy. Out of all three of my girls, she happened to get most of the Asian genes passed on to her. She was so excited about how much Ivy looked like her!
ReplyDeleteI am with ou on the last paragraph!We go once a year too and its very special!But that must have been like 1000 dollars!But your daughters must be having a blast!
