ADDY!!!!

Here she is settled into my room. (Check out who is hanging out under Addy's arm! My mom ordered Ida Bean as a surprise.) :)

My mom also found Addy's bird and cookie set on Ebay so she ordered that too.

I wanted to take a picture of the cookies open but the camera battery died and it needs charged.

Somebody New

Do you see anybody new? Look closely...

Did you spot her???

My mom decided that Cecile was looking a little lonely on her side of the shelf
all alone. So, she got her a friend! I'm so excited to have another Girls of Many Lands Doll in my room!

Say hello to Isabel!

Welcome Home Isabel!

Room Changes!

I mentioned in my last post that my mom and dad made some big changes to my room. My collection is growing and I needed more space. My dad put three shelves on my walls. Two are being used for American Girl and the other shelf is for stuffed animals. When I run out of room for American Girl I will take the stuffed animals off of the third shelf and use it for American Girl too. Here are pictures of my new and improved American Girl area of my room!
