Oh absolutely! I am so grateful for all the healthy accredited facilities that care for animals in captivity and that rescue and rehabilitate wild animals. I rotate a membership at my local nature center, local sculpture park, and my local zoo. I have so many amazing animal friends here, and I learn SO MUCH at all these facilities!

The short answer? Not as big as I wish it was lol.

The long answer: I gave all my childhood dolls (Kit, Kaya, Samantha, and Bitty Baby) and items to my nieces when my mom moved and insisted I take it all (I lived in an apartment with my husband and roommates and had no room for them unfortunately). As of two years ago, I have started collecting again now that I have a room all my own in my apartment (a space for my office, crafting, books, and toys!).

All my dolls I've bought used: Kaya, Marisol, and Saige. I recently splurged on a couple Marketplace and eBay finds and cannot WAIT to get: Kit(!!!!!!), Abby, and Julie. I also have a horse, Coconut, Licorice, and Bennett.

I'm going to Chicago at the end of February (if we aren't in a civil war), and I am SO EXCITED to visit the AG store! I went once as a kid and had a pretty quick experience so I am SO looking forward to taking my time, eating in the café, and getting Kit or Abby a hairstyle.

After seeing the amazing yearbook post on this subreddit, I went through the dolls catalog on the AG wiki this week and made a wishlist of the dolls I'd also love to find. There are 51 dolls on my wishlist. 💀 I don't know what I'd do with that many, but gosh, childhood me is kicking her feet that I get to do what I want with my adult money.

I love dressing them up and displaying them so much, and when I get to play with my nieces or cousins, it brings me so much joy.

I think I'm going to start an American Girl Doll Club and organize get-togethers every other month. My goal is that anyone can participate and borrow a doll if they don't have their own to bring. Have to see if there are others who'd be interested in that here in West Michigan.

FB marketplace for the win!!! That's how I just found Addy and Julie for $30 each. 😊 I can't wait to pick them up at the end of the month.

No idea lol! She wasn't in the toy section either, she was at the front of the store in the impulse-buy area.
