My 8yo DD's best friend has wanted a Molly doll for a long time now. Molly would be her first AG doll and she asked for her for her last birthday and Christmas but didn't get her. Her Mom has called me very annoyed that we (meaning DD and myself) have gotten her DD into this "whole expensive American Girl stuff". Now is X is not a deprived child, she has a Gamecube and whenever a new game she wants comes out, her mom goes and gets it for her. I gently tried to tell her Mom that for the price of 2 of those new games she could have a AG doll and accessories, she said she buys her all the games because "it keeps her busy and out of my hair." (DD's best friends house is always immaculate)LOL. Anyway her Mom has relented and decided to buy her Molly for her birthday in June, but told her she could only have the doll and nothing else if that is what she wanted.

DD is all concerned that poor Molly won't have anything to wear and has asked that we order something for Molly for best friends birthday. She wants to get her pajamas because "she can't sleep in her clothes!" and wants to buy her one other outfit. I told her that is a lot of money to spend on a friends birthday present and she has offered to pay for one of the outfits with some of her money she has saved for our first trip to AGP in July. Which one would you all choose?

I sure wish I would have known that her Mom was going to give in when the CODE was around!
