Today is the day: 12

It's the big day! (not really) On this day, Feb. 22 I, Mickey's Girl turned 12! So I'm bored but my mom and I are seeing a movie later. Journey 2 or The Secret World of Arrietty. I can't decide.... Their quite different. Maybe I'll do a review on the one I saw.... Am I talking too much? Probably... Haven't been on here in a long time.....sorry.....

Anyway! I'm doing my party on Saturday so I'll do a present post a few days after probably.(Grr.... My mom is singing to Josh Groban....I'm not going to survive this!) I guess I don't have a lot to say. Thanks to everyone who has been following my blog even though I haven't been quite recent.

I gotta go watch Doctor Who.....excuse me! :)

New from AG!

Hey guys! I'm so sorry I've been neglecting my blog. I've been planning my birthday party next week. My dolls have been deciding their wardrobe and cleaning their rooms, so they've been off the computer lately too (probably for their own good) ;) .

Has anyone got the new email from AG? I fell in love with THIS outfit. AG, however, has gone nutzo! 68 dollars for the whole set?!?! I'm not gonna beat them up because people are buying this stuff right? Time for an eBay search! ;) You can check out all the new stuff HERE.

Here's just a few photo from the website:

MEGA Garage Sale Finds!

"Oh jee" is what I thought when I woke up at 6:30am. Let's just say I never have hope of finding actual AG stuff at these places. ;) Well today was different (obviously). When I got there I saw an Our Generation Jeep and Pleasant Company Bitty Baby things. I just knew there had to be something here! I totally would have gotten the Jeep if I hadn't seen the broken top and door. Yeah. That was kind of depressing...... (Oh and just a PS to all of you who are getting excited, (which I don't suppose is many) I didn't find a doll people!)

I next I found a first edition Coconut's doghouse. I was super excited and raced over. Imagine my surprise when I found not only all the pieces that go with it were there but 2 Coconuts?!?!? I could have very easily exploded from excitement there readers! No more post from me! :)

After about 30 minutes of waiting for family, I went back over to where I found the Coconuts. Then I found Coconut's pet carrier?!?! People, don't make me blow up officially! It was only the carrier and didn't have any of the little things. Then I was really happy with my find and wanted to leave. I had to wait a few more minutes so I went back! I absolutely FREAKED! I found LINDSEY'S BAG!!!! I was really hyperventilating at that point! We finally left after I checked the area one more time. (To make sure there weren't any Lindseys!)

Here are the photos of what I got. Sorry about the bad quality they were taken with my web cam, but hooray, everyone gets to see my hair!

These are the two Coconuts. They are from 2004 I think is what I saw and they still have the magnetic mouth and they are very heavy! I have the 2006 version so mine is lighter and slightly smaller. We weighed them for comparison and these ^  weigh 0.66 and mine weighs 0.26 . Jeez these could be paperweights!

I did this for comparison. My Coconut is on the right. He's been used a lot when I was younger and you can kind of tell. He's a bit more brown and not pure white like the ones I bought. My Coco looks more like my Westie! He's a dirty fella! ;)

This is Coco's first edition doghouse! I have the second edition. Sorry, I forgot to do a comparison photo. :( It came with the doghouse, (obviously) the pillow, a doggie mat, and two food bowls. (photos below)

This the actual Lindsey's bag! I've freaking out here!

 The logo changes color!

This is Coconut's pet carrier. (not sure what edition) Sorry it's a bit dark in there! ;)

 This is the luggage tag it say Coconut on the back an a place to put your address and phone number. Needless to say I won't be writing on that! :)

These little AG sized books were in Lindsey's bag. Their not from Lindsey's collection. Does anyone know if these are actual AG? They don't have AG markings anywhere.

 And these are the things that came with the dog house: The reversible doggie mat which has paws on one side an striped on the other. It's a sort of sturdy rubber. P.S. Hey? Anyone like my shirt?? ;)

I also came with two of these. My web cam doesn't focus, but it says "eat, nap, play"

 So hooray! This week was success for me and my dolls!

AG Hair Tips

!How to keep your American Girl Doll's hair perfect!

These are a few tips and tricks to keep your dolls hair in great condition!

Tip #1

Don't EVER put any products in your doll's hair! Even if you find any anti-frizz stuff, nope! Nothing! Nada! Zilch! El zippo!!!! I wouldn't put anything in my doll's hair unless recommended by THIS girl.

Tip #2

If your dolls are on display or you don't plan on using them roughly for a while, leave their hair down or in a simple style. If you leave their hair in a elaborate do or braids it will make their hair get real frizzy, real fast!

Tip #3

If you plan on having little kids over and think they may roughhouse with your dolls only pick out the ones you want them to play with and then braid their hair so they can't get it tangled or messed up.

Sorry if I've been having a lack of post lately. I've been super busy this week and not feeling to well. Thanks!
