I wonder what Vee & Ariel are talking about?!
(Here’s a bonus of my pup Penny with the girls 😊)

It’s been 410 days since I had to help you over the rainbow bridge. Jerome still sits in your empty bed in our library, no more long romantic walks around the house with you. Surgery recovery without you was weird. You know your sister isn’t a nurse puppy like you. I miss you following me around the house. Today missing you hits hard. For no particular reason. I miss you, Isabella Chanel 🖤

They are my favorites of my small American Girl collection

I’m not great at braiding but I think I did okay?

Younger sister Ariel finally arrived and joined mine & Vee’s morning rotation. (Bonus picture of my pup, Penny!)

While waiting for Ariel to arrive, I’ve added three dogs to our pack for my dolls’ lore: two AG dogs Murph and Toasty and a non-AG Saint Bernard I’ve named Cosmo. I’ve always loved Saints but I since I can’t handle drool, the dolls have one instead!

This is my very small American Girl collection

Miss Verona Eleanore Elmwood arrived yesterday. When not taking care of the pups at her Lucky Dog Sanctuary, she can be found, reading and listening to music.

First pic is with Coconut, Bennett & Sweetie. Second pic is Vee on my American Girl shelf!

Miss Verona Eleanore Elmwood arrived yesterday so this morning’s our first smoke sesh!

She is a Create-Your-Own American Girl. When not taking care of the pups at her Lucky Dog Sanctuary, she can be found listening to music and reading.

Her dream rotation? Taylor Swift, Sylvia Plath, Caroline Calloway, & Samantha Parkington (iykyk😝)

I love Coconut and found a plushie of him on Mercari! He’s “keeping the spot warm” (like a real pup!) for my CYO that should come in a couple weeks!

I woke up to a package on my doorstep, and it was Kirsten! My sweet husband ordered her after he saw her page on the AG website up on my computer.

I absolutely love her! She’s so cute and her hair is so soft! Her purse is adorable. I loved how the box was a book.

I have my eye on Ariel next!

This my favorite place in the whole world. I moved into my house a little over a year ago and I’m still growing into my shelves!

My CYO doll has shipped (VICTORY SCREECH!) and should be here Monday! Meanwhile, the two shirts I ordered for her arrived! I don’t know which to put on her first!

Calling this a “cool craft” is a stretch since all I did was string it on some waxed cord I have but! I found a Jip charm on Mercari and decided to make it into a necklace for myself!

I feel like I’m over-posting here lately! I hyper-fixate on things and I’m just so excited for all my various AG-related items I’ve gotten lately and love to show off and chat with other AG lovers!

She is a 12 year old Brussel Griffon/Yorkie mix and I’ve had her since she was 6 months old. She’s my soul dog and she’s the sweetest girl I’ve ever met. She loves to meet people and sniff noses and wiggle her butt when she meets another dog! She loves to give hugs, eat (especially bananas!), and go on walks.

I wish everyone knew a dog as sweet as Penny, it really warms my heart!

This is my library (200+books) with my collection of toys, plushies, collectibles, & Legos mixed in!

I’ve been talking about a CYO for months and today my sweet husband surprised me with a giftcard to order my dream doll! I can’t wait for her to arrive in three weeks!

My new Samantha came today! I haven’t been this excited about anything in a long time! She’s beautiful and I love her! 🥰

I found this really neat coffee table book about the making of AG on ThriftBooks! It was neat to read about the beginnings and as a Samantha girlie to read about the other girls!
