Yeah, I did it.

Delaney and Callie have been into American Girl Dolls in the last year. After Delaney's colossal issues with her Walmart doll, I thought maybe it would be worth getting the real thing.  I told the girls that we'd be in CA and we could go to the American Girl Doll store if they wanted.   Oh, they wanted!  Monday July 28 I met my darling nieces and my sister in law at the LA store.

Joshua took one for the team and hung out by the front door while the giggling mass of girls perused every item in the store.  And yes, when we left, Delaney's dreams had come true and she possessed her very own American Girl Doll.  (She is still working off her half of the doll, but is just about there!)

And the best part?  We went home with their cousins! Yay!
