AmericanGirlFan: About Me~ An American Girl Fan

Celebrating my website's 3rd Year Birthday with my dolls and my sister's dolls!

Hello and Welcome to my website all about American Girl, for American Girl Fans everywhere! :)

I'm Liz, a 19-year-old homeschooled graduate and Christian girl. I love God so much and I want to glorify Him through my website. I have been an American Girl fan for almost 10 years, and started this website in 2008, when I was 14 years old. I currently have 10 dolls Molly, Elizabeth, Kit, Mia, Abbey (JLY), Addy, Felicity, Cecile, Rebecca, and Saige. I enjoy photography and love taking pictures of all of my American Girl dolls. Some other things I enjoy are reading, card-making, writing stories, anything old-fashioned, being with my family, computer games, graphic design, chatting on my message board, and more! I have an awesome Dad and Mom, and 15 year old sister named Hope. Hope likes American Girl too and has 6 dolls: Josefina, Samantha, Nellie, Julie, and Megan (JLY), and Kenley (JLY). :)

I have loved American Girl ever since I recieved the American Girl Doll Catalogs, and then about a year later recieved my very first doll Molly when I was 9 years old. I still love my American Girl dolls, and I think you can never be too old for dolls! :)

I hope you enjoy your visit to my website! Please leave a comment too, I would love to hear from you! :)

Have you got any new american girl dolls? what made you want to make this website? Where do you live? I live in Nevada. Thanks for making this site KOda

Posted by: Koda | January 01, 2009 at 09:12 PM

I love your website. I'm almost 16 and for my "sweet 16" i'm going to american girl place in atlanta :) [2 more weeks, but my birthday is on the 6th] anyway, how did you make your site? i really want to have one too, because I like yours sooo much!

I have 5 dolls: Samantha, kit, Nellie, Josefina, Kirsten and a bitty baby

Posted by: Kara | January 02, 2009 at 10:32 AM

Hi Liz,
I am 12 (almost 13) years old. I am also homeschooled. I really enjoy your blog. You have really put a lot into it.

I have been collecting American Girl dolls since I was 5. I have gotten one for my birthday every year since then. I also got a few for Christmas in the past. I also saved my money for two of them. I didn't get a new one this year though. I did get Mia's 2-in-l skating outfit this year.

I have Samantha, Kit, Felicity, Elizabeth, Kirsten, Jess, Julie, Molly, Emily, Addy, Emma (Just Like You doll), and Nellie.

I hope you are enjoying the New Year.

HI Liz,

I an 11 years old and next year I am going to be homeschooled. I am also a Christian. I am saving my money for Molly. I got my first 2 American Girl Dolls for Christmas in 2008. I have Samantha and a Bitty Baby.

How did you make your site? Why did you make your site? Your Site is so cool. I love how you do so many different activities with your dolls and take pictures.

My dad made my Samantha doll a bed. I saw that you webt to an AG store. How was it? I think it is so cool that you still have American Girl dolls. My favorite thing to do on here is look at the things that your dolls do. GTG Thanks Koda

Posted by: Koda | January 03, 2009 at 12:52 PM

Hi Koda,

Thanks so much for the comments! :) I really appreciate the nice compliments, thanks so much! :)

Well, I made my site on typepad. (typepad.com) My dad helps me with my website layout and managing the my account on Typepad.

The reason I made this website is because I love American Girl dolls, and wanted to share my love of American Girl dolls with people and girls like you! I wanted to have a website where I could post about my dolls, crafts to make, AG news, and other American Girl related things.

I had a Great time visiting the American Girl Place in Chicago last summer. :) I got to see an exclusive showing of the Kit Kittredge movie and eat dinner in the cafe. It was a lot of fun! :)

Mia, Abbey (Just like you doll), and Addy are my newest American Girl dolls. All of the dolls I own are Molly (04), Elizabeth (06), Kit (07), Mia (08), Abbey (08), and Addy(08).

Also, I live in Kentucky. :)

Thanks so much for visiting and I hope you come back again soon! :)

Have a Great day! :)

Have a Great day! ;)

Hey Liz!!
Do you know of any other stores that sell American Girl things or things that fit American Girl dolls besides Target?:)

Posted by: Anne | January 03, 2009 at 10:51 PM

Hi Liz!! I was just on www.americangirl.com and I saw that there is a big 50% off sale on select items!! the prices range from $4 to $20. Koda

Posted by: Koda | January 19, 2009 at 12:42 PM

Koda,
I was there too! The prices are unbelievable because AG is usually very expensive. I bought Kit's bedding. Did you order anything? :)
~Brenna

Posted by: Brenna :) | January 19, 2009 at 03:55 PM

I love AG dolls I have Nikki doll and I also love the books.

Posted by: Abigail | January 19, 2009 at 04:06 PM

Hello.
Do you think you could add Abbey and Addy to the page about your dolls? Just when you get around to it. I know you are busy.
I love your website.
Thanks!

Posted by: Starr | January 19, 2009 at 07:11 PM

Oops, sorry. I just went to that page and realized you had updated. My bad. Thank you!

Posted by: Starr | January 19, 2009 at 07:14 PM

Hi Liz! I've been looking for an active AG site - and was thrilled to see that you posted yesterday! I'm 14 and homeschooled as well! I have Kirsten and Felicity. I love your site - it's so creative! I'm very glad I found such an amazing site - made by someone my own age!

To be honest, I'm very glad about that. My siblings tease me a little about being 14 and getting a doll for Christmas. But, honestly, who CAN'T love an AG Doll? It's such a great company... Have you heard of the below site? It's great, but they haven't updated for a bit... :(

http://curtdanhauser.com/AG_Collecting/Main.html

It's a great site as well - like if you wanted tips or new pages or whatever. Hope it helps! =)

Anyway, thanks so much for putting up this site! It's amazing!

Posted by: Ariel | January 26, 2009 at 07:05 PM

I love American Girl!!!! I have Kirsten, and I put her hair in two shiny braids!!!! It looks wonderful!!!

Posted by: Anna | January 28, 2009 at 11:57 AM

Hi Ariel,
I have the Kirsten doll, too! And I have seen that website you have the link for. But they do need to update. They need to update their news, too! :) I make a list of things in my AG collection on there. Do you?

Posted by: Quinlyn | February 05, 2009 at 09:51 AM

Hi! I'm a Christan too!

Posted by: Haley | February 07, 2009 at 07:29 AM

Hey Ariel!
I know what you mean I am fourteen too and used to be homeschooled and my friends say that i am too obsessed with American Girl. I wish they liked it as much as I do!

Posted by: Anne | February 07, 2009 at 12:45 PM

Hi Liz,
On amazon.com, you can put your blog on Kindle! My mom has a Kindle, and I would look at your blog from it! :) Check it out!

Posted by: Quinlyn | February 13, 2009 at 02:29 PM

Posted by: Madeline | February 24, 2009 at 07:58 PM

Hey Liz,
Why did you put the photo of Hope's doll on the top of your website, instead of one of your doll's photos?

Posted by: Quinlyn | February 26, 2009 at 03:59 PM

Hey! I'm twelve and getting the new ag doll rebecca for my bday!

Posted by: Amy | April 22, 2009 at 08:27 AM

Hey Liz!
This is an AWESOME site!! I'm homeschooled, too! I'm also 16, but I still LOVE AG dolls. It makes me feel much better that I'm not the only girl my age who still loves AG dolls!! Thanks for making a GREAT site!!
~Crystal

Posted by: Crystal | April 24, 2009 at 05:21 PM

Hi Liz,

What a great site you have! I've been a fan of the AG books and dolls since I was in grade school - When I was 10, there was only Kirsten, Samantha and Molly to choose from and then later Felicity and Addy came along. I had the Felicity, Kirsten and Samantha dolls and my best friend had Addy and Molly. I'm now 26 and still have them! I checked out the AG website the other day and see that there are so many more great dolls available now. How fun! Keep up the great work, and thanks for the memories!

Posted by: Lynn Z. | April 25, 2009 at 03:05 PM

Hi! I love American girl dolls. I somtimes can't find any ways to play with them! Is there some imaginary games you play with them? if so please tell me or if anyone has ideas on the site please guestbook me!
