American Girl outing

We had a girls day with our friends today at American Girl! I forgot my camera so I used my phone. I will post the good pictures when I get them from Jennifer!

SO much fun! I think I spent as much time getting "Baby Julie" ready to go this morning as I did myself! I had to dress her, brush her hair, look for her tights and shoes, then re-do her hair since Emerson had taken off her headband! I ended up putting on my own makeup in the car because I had no idea that getting a baby doll ready was so intense!

Then we got there and Emerson wanted to get her baby's hair fixed. This was a big ordeal--- they have beauty shop chairs (complete with straps- in case your baby doll misbehaves and tries to escape?!) and they put clips in to pull it up so they can concentrate on one section at a time and the baby also wears a cape so she doesn't get her dress dirty! Emerson and Lucy loved this! And baby Julie looks like a million bucks! LITERALLY!

Then we got the baby and Emerson a matching shirt and of course a carrying bag!
