I had Samantha and I cut her hair cause I thought it would grow back :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540688 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 17:04:56 +0000 mrs. wagon 1540688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked my mom for Samantha and she told me that if I saved up enough for half, she'd pay the rest. I scrimped and saved and worked and saved up enough for my half plus more!! She was so proud and let me order the accessory set as well (hat, purse, etc). She's still in perfect condition and on lmw's shelf. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540675 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:56:01 +0000 luckypenny 1540675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe 6 or 7? I had Addy and loved her :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540673 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:55:12 +0000 PurplePeony 1540673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I got Samantha when I was about 8 and Felicity when I was about 10. I can't wait to pass them on to DD, but I really wish I'd gotten all the outfits and accessories before they retired them. I didn't even know they were doing that :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540580 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:27:24 +0000 JerricaBenton 1540580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I was seven. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540566 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:24:41 +0000 Mrs. Deer 1540566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only had Bitty Baby. Got her at age 7 I think? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540564 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:23:45 +0000 jetsa 1540564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we got them as christmas gifts from our grandma, I actually just got them back from her house :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540554 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:20:06 +0000 raspberries 1540554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@abbydabbydoodlebug: Ahhh, I had Felicity too! I got her when I was around 8 - and I remember she had a pink dress that came with an apron you had to pin on with straight pins and I never failed to draw blood. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540521 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:06:49 +0000 Mrs. Train 1540521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was 7 I think. I got the catalog when there were only three dolls Kirsten, Samantha and Molly. I used to love looking at the catalogs. I got Kirsten and my sister got Molly. I really like the historic dolls but all the others I am sort of indifferent to. For the expense I would prefer getting the time period dolls I hope Lilly likes them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540513 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:03:36 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 1540513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a bitty baby when I was 6 or 7, and I saved up and got Felicity when I was 10 or so. Felicity was my favorite! So sad that they retired her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540512 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:02:25 +0000 autumnlove 1540512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never had one but I loved reading the catalogs!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540510 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:01:42 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1540510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsrain: yes, they still have the My American Girl that you pick her fearures. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540507 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:00:53 +0000 sarahbs 1540507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think when I was 8 or 9 I got a Samantha doll! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540504 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 16:00:05 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1540504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I received Samantha when I was 7 for Christmas. Addy was introduced in 1993, so I received her when I was 10 or 11. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540458 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 15:45:12 +0000 mrsrain 1540458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was given a Bitty Baby around 7 or 8 years old. Later when I was maybe 11(?) they came out with the design-your-own American Girl (do they still do this?) and my mom surprised me with one who looked just like me. I named her Lauren :)</p> <p>I played with dolls probably waaay too long, but I always loved them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-american-girl-doll-as-a-little-girl#post-1540432 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 15:40:48 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1540432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What age did you get your first one?</p> <p>I was 9! And at 12 I saved up my money to buy another one (they were only $65 or $70 at the time). I played with them until I was a young teen - I loved them so much! </p>
