1st Outcast Doll Club Meeting

Today Jillian and I had our first ever club meeting for our new Outcast Doll Club. Although we didn't get much accomplished today (we spent most of the time watching tv), we did manage to elect officers. Hahaha. It wasn't very hard to do since there aren't very many of us yet. We decided that I get to be the president and Jillian will be the vice-president. Abby says she's not sure if she wants to be in the club yet... cause she would rather be considered an American Girl doll than an outcast doll. But we did catch her sitting awfully close to us during the meeting... so maybe she'll change her mind. We are in the process of recruiting new members. My girl says she'll get as many dolls as we want!

My New Best Friend

My girl got another new doll! Meet Jillian! She is a Tolly Girl doll. My girl had to look long and hard to find a doll like Jillian because dolls like her are not made any more. But my girl managed to find Jillian... and she was still brand new in her box.

Poor Jillian has had a hard time though. Not only did she spend a very long time cooped up in her box... but when my girl tired to remove her she actually hurt her. My girl didn't realize that Tolly dolls are packaged so tightly. Not only was Jillian tied to her box, but her hair was sewn to her clothes and her clothes were sewn to her body. Not completely but with enough stitches that when my girl tried to pull her part (not realizing about the stitches) that she pulled a hole in Jillian's shirt and made a hole on the back of her shoulder. Poor Jillian had stuffing coming out of her and everything! Luckily my girl was able to sew Jillian back up and now she is as good as new.

I'm so glad my girl decided to get another doll because Jillian is so much fun to hang out with. We have so much in common. We have decided to start our own "knock-off doll" club. My girl even agreed to get some more dolls if we wanted her to. She says she has some birthday money that she wants to spend and that dolls sounds like the perfect thing to spend it on. :)

New Doll

My girl decided to get a new doll.... another "cheap" doll. At first I was very nervous about the idea of me not being the newest doll. What if she likes the new doll better than me? I like being the favorite... and I like that I'm the only doll that isn't an American Girl doll.

Well.. the new doll arrived today so the wait is finally over. Her name is Abby. She says she was given as a birthday gift to a little girl. But the little girl doesn't like dolls! She never even took Abby out of her box! Can you believe that? So she ended up on ebay... which apparently is the place where unwanted dolls go to find a new home. My girl bought Abby and a brand new outfit for only five dollars plus the travel expenses (shipping)! My girl says that Abby was such a great deal that she couldn't pass her up.

It turns out that Abby is really nice and I have nothing to worry about. I now have a new friend that understands what its like to be an "outsider knock off doll". Plus I'm still my girl's favorite (but don't tell Abby).
