I told my grandma before the doll show that I can plan all I want, but the doll show surprises me each year. And I was proven right once again! In the same spot I had bought from in my first doll show, was Ivy!
Kaya though was 100% planned, I mean my wishlist looked like this (cropped for ease, and Ivy circled for my non AG friends lol)
Nicki as you can see, wasn't as high up. I worried she'd be set aside, but nope. I found MY Nicki, you know? It's such a fun feeling spotting a doll and knowing She's The One. I had it happen last year with Alesha (my #47) and previously with Aniyah (my #42)
And you know what's even more suprising, someone had a Gwen there too! I didn't snap a picture of her, but I was very suprised to see her. Anyway, I had made a little vision board to go with my wishlist and
I am missing the cute teddy, but I got the outfit and wheelchair from my favorite catalog photo!
Here's the rest of the haul, as you can see mostly pajamas. I wasn't feeling so hot (not sick though don't worry) the morning of. I suppose I wanted my dolls to be cozy! I found a cute licorice, need an older Coconut now. I loved the little soccer ball, and that same seller had a cute bin of shirts with Lindseys meet shirt, an AG NYC shirt, and that robe. She was very kind, I accidently spilled shirts over trying to dig through and apologized for the mess she told me "make a mess!" It was such a fun tone of voice, I wish I could convey it better.
I am a smidge disappointed, see the teal shirt and grin pins by the robe? Yeah the shirt is SUPPOSED to have pants that match the robe. But the seller must have mixed up the set, and thrown in pants from a different American Girl Today set. It is very very cute, will use it to death still. But it was almost perfect! Ah well, I'll try to nab them up soon. Anyway I did also get Kayas book from a different seller! I love her stories and wanted a physical copy, and the catalog was a fun bonus!
