Heyy AG Lovers! I'm going to be doing these "Insider Info" posts about my new series coming in March. This weekend I'm going to finish up sets and possibly start filming. The next 2-3 weekends I will also be filming. For the weekend after that I will edit and then in mid-late March upload the first episode. I may do a trailer or preview type video and if I do that will be up in March.
Now about the series itself...the main idea of this series is...fashion!
Thanks for reading this post and commenting! :)
Also, let me know if you like this new blog design. I may change the top tabs to a different font but I'm not sure yet.

A Few Updates
Heyy AG Lovers! Today I have a few things to share with you.
- I'm saving up for a new camera. If my plans work out I should be able to get it the end of this year, which seems like a really long time from now, but it will be worth it. I'm going back and forth between the Canon Rebel t3i and the t4i. I went to Best Buy with my family few weekends ago and one of the employees explained the differences between them to me. I'm leaning towards the t4i based on what she told me and the research I've done in the past couple months. Anyway, my goal is to get the camera by November/December 2013.
- I'm doing a "blog design makeover". I would like to put in a banner at the top with a picture/pictures. I'm also changing up the design as well so expect to see some changes. I may add another page like a Q&A as well.
- I will be making a doll room/house soon. I don't really want one of those doll house with the cubes because you can only arrange things and you can't really be in there to move things around, also it's harder to film in a box. I plan on making more of a "shelf" type house with large shelves in my closet replacing the plasticy shelves I have in there now. My doll room is in a corner of my room on the floor and the shelves in my closet. I have one of my closet doors removed to create a connection between the two spaces but I would like to make shelves that are taller so my dolls can stand up comfortably. I will probably start this project in March, because I want to film my series first so I can set something up without being busy rearranging and building other things.
- On my YouTube channel, I'm making a series that will begin in spring. So this will take up a good part of my weekends for about 1 month.. I'll be busy filming and editing but I'm super excited for it :) I can't really say what it's about yet but a future post will tell more information when I get closer to actually uploading the first episode.
- So that's pretty much it for updates. Thanks so much for reading! :D

All My Dolls: Video and Descriptions
Heyy guys! Today I will be showing you all of my dolls :) I linked my video that was on YouTube here and there are also descriptions of each below the video.
My "All My Dolls" Video
Doll Names and Descriptions.
Julie (Marie) Albright - I got Julie as my first doll. She's the Historical Character from 1974. I don't have any of her collection, so I am using her as a modern doll. If I get any of her collection in the future when I save up some more money I may also have her be a Historical and modern in my videos.
Zoe - I still need a last name for her....Comment ideas down below! I got Zoe in 2010. She is MAG #49 and is super gorgeous :) Her favorite thing to do is bake.
Cécile (Amélie) Rey - Cécile was my third doll and I got her for Christmas in 2011. She's the Historical Character of 1853. I'm keeping her as a Historical.
Marie-Grace (Rousseau) Gardner - Marie-Grace is the Historical Character of 1853 along with Cécile. I got her in January 2012. I am also keeping her as a Historical.
Kit Kittredge - I got Kit for my birthday. She is from 1934 during the Great Depression. I'm going to probably make her a modern doll, but I may switch back to Historical sometimes. I may be re-naming her but I don't know yet.
Ruthie Smithens - I got Ruthie along with Kit for my birthday, she's also from 1934. I am also making Ruthie a modern doll/Historical sometimes. I haven't decided what her personality will be yet. I may be re-naming her
Saige Copeland - I purchased Saige with my own money on January 1st 2013 at the American Girl Place :) She's super pretty and my first GOTY doll.
If you have name suggestions for Kit and/or Ruthie please leave them below. Thanks for reading/commenting!

New Series Coming Spring 2013
Heyy AG Lovers! Today I'm updating you on my new series. I've written about 1/4 of it so far and hope to finish the story line by February. I have all the characters and the dolls playing the parts worked out. I want to finish filming all of the episodes before I upload any. I plan to edit them as I go but I really want to get everything filmed ahead of time that way while I'm uploading the episodes I have time to make other videos that aren't part of the series. A preview/trailer type video will probably be uploaded in March. The first episode will be up in late March or early April. I will then upload every week. More posts like this in the future :)

My MAG Dream Wishlist
Heyy AG Lovers! I put together a dream wishlist for all of the MAG things. I'm not getting all these items, if any, and won't be getting anything from AG until (at least!) February.
I put them into categories.
Clothing
Sweet Savannah Dress
I love the ruffled part on the front and the whole outfit's very fashionable.
Soft-as-Snow Outfit & Earmuffs
I love the sweater in this outfit and it's just so cute!
Butterfly Garden PJ's for Dolls + Charm and Garden Robe & Pillow for Dolls
These pajamas are so cute and I love the matching robe and pillow.
Accessories
Salon Styling Caddy
I love styling my dolls hair and trying out new hairstyles so this caddy would be so much fun to have. I've wanted it for a while and I think in my next MAG purchase, I may get this one.
Coconut
She's just so cute!
Service Dog Set
I love this set and how it has the vest and handle. I also love Chocolate Chip, the dog this set comes with.
Furniture:
Baby Grand Piano
I play the piano and this gorgeous piano would be perfect so my doll could have one as well, although my piano is not a baby grand! :)
Dreamy Daybed & Bedding
I'd love to have a bed for my dolls at some point in time and this one's very colorful and I love the design.
Dreamy Nightstand Set
This is so cute and matches the bed above :)
So I think that's pretty much it :) I basically went through the website and looked at different items that I might want. I might now have seen the whole website but this is what I found.
So what's on your dream wishlist? Let me know down below in the comments.

New MAG Items ~ January 2013
Heyy AG Lovers. With all the excitement surrounding Saige, I wanted to pause and take a look at some of the new MAG things!
I Love Pets Pajamas for Dolls
I find these very cute and since AG re-released Licorice it's a perfect fit for Coconut and Licorice. The leggings has a very cute heart, star, and other shapes, pattern on it. The slippers look so soft.
Fun & Games Table
This set confused me at first and didn't look "modern" to me or very "2013". But when I saw it in person at the American Girl Place it grew on me. The nachos do look better in person than in the pictures. The checkers set is very cute and like the Apples to Apples game in the Sleepover Accessories, you can play it and it has instructions. The table is low to the ground making it perfect for activities and you don't need chairs. Overall, I think it's cute but not necessarily one of the first things I'd buy for the $58 price tag.
Cozy Lounge Chair
When I first saw this chair I thought it was so cute! But the price is $48! I understand AG is expensive but that's a bit much even for them. I expected it to be about $30, but it's nearly fifty dollars. While I think it's so cute, I don't think I'll be getting it any time soon if ever, even though it's one of my favorites.
Softball Set for Dolls + Charm
I'm not a big fan of this set, but for girls who play softball I think it's wonderful. Since I'm not a very "sporty" person, AG's sport sets aren't very exciting to me, but I know lots of girls love sports. It's a cute outfit, I just personally don't like softball that much.
Skates & Gear
These are basically a copy of the old Skate Set, which I have and got earlier this year. The only difference, other than the new color scheme, is that it doesn't come with stickers. I liked the old ones that came with stickers as you could personalize it. For $34, this set could have come with stickers. I do like the new colors however and it's a great set to have, I really enjoy mine (retired version). But AG just took away the stickers and changed the colors, so I don't see a huge difference in the sets.
So those are the new MAG releases! I do enjoy all of them but don't see myself really getting them except maybe the pajamas. I won't be purchasing from AG until Spring since I just got Saige and some of her things.
What do you think of the new MAG things? Let me know int he comments below :)
