Ruthie is out, yes, Ruthie is out! Did you hear me? RUTHIE IS OUT! It’s so exciting, I can’t stop screaming! I can’t think straight! Just do me a favor, look at the pictures below before I blow up!

This is Ruthie, she is beautiful! She has two outfits out, not including her meet outfit. I can’t speak much longer, so I have to do this fast.

Kit also has some new outfits out, and they are the floral print dress, and a striped nightie. The floral print dress includes:

. A sleeveless floral dress her mother made from a chicken-feed sack
. A flower barrette for her hair
. Mary Jane shoes with scalloped details

With the nightie, there are slippers and a headband.

This is Ruthie’s pink satin pajamas. I wish I had a pair! It includes slippers and a polka-dot sash.

Ruthie also has a play outfit. This is what it looks like. It includes:

. A periwinkle top with tan accents at the neckline and cuffs
. Tan twill knickers with a belt at the waist
. Patterned knee socks and two-tone oxford shoes
. A matching felted hat trimmed with ribbon and flowers

These are Ruthie’s accessories. The accessories include

. A black purse with a front pocket and silver clasp
. A pretty hankie printed with flowers
. Two rose-shaped barrettes to style her hair
. A pretend watch with hands that “move” — a special gift from her father

I hope you enjoy Ruthie as much as I do!

Also we would like to thank American girl online for these wonderful pictures.

Doll Diaries has posted some pictures of Ruthie. They are not sure if this is the exact photograph of her or not, but it could be! Look at the picture below!

Exciting, exciting!

Here is a link to the frame puzzles.

American girl has made many new things this year…. another new thing that they now have is called frame puzzles.

Frame puzzles are puzzles that have three pictures of the same American girl and also have a backround to go with the puzzles.

So far American girl has made Addy, Felicity, Julie, and Samantha frame puzzles. Kirsten, Molly, Kit, Josefina, and Kaya frame puzzles are expected in June.

Even though it is only the beginning of the new year, 2008, American girl has already started planning for the girl of the year 2009! They just can’t seem to wait can they? Well anyway the good thing is… we get some very early news! It seems as though the author of the girl of the year 2009 will be Mary Casanova, who also wrote the Jess books (girl of the year 2006) for American girl. If any more information comes out we will be sure to let you know. This information was found at Doll Diaries. Not American girl: I found a website called Free Rice, where you try to define a word and if you get it right 20 grains of rice goes to people who need food, try it sometime.

 Before I thought that Julie would get more outfits in December, well I was off be two months… Julie has two more outfits and some accessories now and I like them a lot.

What do you think?

This is her 2-in-1 outfit that has a roller skating outfit and an outfit for the beach.

Here we have Julie’s birthday dress (it is my favorite.)

These are Julie’s birthday accessories.

Photos are from the American girl website.

News just in! Ruthie, Kit’s best friend, will be out in May 2008! She will be the fourteenth doll in American Girl! What a good way to start off 2008 knowing this exciting news!

Hey folks,

Here is a picture of Mia, when she was on the Oprah show, on her book cover, and a poster.

If you missed the Oprah show on Mia, here is the part where they show her. It stops a lot but, I liked it.

I also want to thank Millie’s Doll Closet, and Doll Diaries for the pictures of Mia.

Today, there was a whole section on American girl on the TV show, Oprah. My mom let me watch it and the audience actually got to see Mia, the American girl of 2008! Mia is a figure skater growing up in upstate New York. She’s grown up facing her three brothers in ice hockey in the pond behind her house. Mia’s message that American Girl’s trying to get across is to follow your dreams and to never give up. As Sylvie has mentioned, there are going to be two books about Mia; Mia and Bravo, Mia! There is a book summary for each of them below.

Mia

Mia St. Clair is a ten-year-old girl living in upstate New York. She has grown up playing ice hockey wit her three older brothers on the pond behind their house. Mia’s got the skills and the scrappiness it takes to be a star hockey player, but she’s tired of skating in her brothers’ shadows and has decided to follow her heart and pursue figure skating instead. Does she have what it takes to grow and compete as a figure skaters? When a new coach arrives, Mia finds herself gently pushed by the coach at the same time that she’s pulled by her brothers. Can she stay true to her heart and follow her own path? Can she hold her own in a world of competitive skating?

Bravo, Mia!

Mia St. Clair can’t wait for Regionals. Or can she? Mia has been training all year to master the moves she needs to compete at the Regional Figure Skating Competition. It’s her first time competing at that level, and Mia is eager for and worried about Regionals all at the same time. Is she a good enough skater? Does she have what it takes to survive in the world of competitive figure skating–and still be a good sport? When a family crisis threatens Mia’s chances of going to Regionals, Mia is heartbroken. But she knows that being a good sport means accepting challenges–even big losses–with determination and grace.

Any of these books sound good to you? They’ll be available in January!
