Does My Mom Know AG?

Hey all!

 I was tagged for this by Katie like... few weeks ago?

So, I'm doing it now! My mom and I both really enjoyed making this and we hope you have fun reading it!

Mom talks in bold

I'll talk in normal 

Anything I need to add is in italics

(My mom is super funny, and you'll love reading this. XD)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Is it on?

Yep.

OK, so first question is how many dolls does AG have from the 1940's?

From the 1940's? 2?

*Shakes head*

I'm wrong. OK... so Molly and Molly's friend.

Emily.

Emily.

And then there's one newer one.

Well, how am I supposed know that?!

*Silence*

Little sister interjects: 'Luciana?'

Nope. She from Pearl Harbor.

Oh. Yeah, don't know her name.

OK, Nanea.

Sure she is. She's from the forties?

Yeah.

OK, well.

1941.

Good for her.

Um, what's one of the ways you can tell a Pleasant Company doll from a Mattel doll?

Oh, well there's an artist's mark.

Um, sometimes, but I was thinking of something bigger.

Sometimes...uh, their eyes?

Kinda. Still bigger.

The old ones are better quality?

*I laughed*

I was thinking of the stamp on the back of their neck.

Oh! OK.

OK, so, what is GOTY 2019's name?

*Blows raspberry*

Farmer chic. Um....

Starts with a 'B'.

B-b-r-rianne. Nope, that's Maplelea. Barty...Bindy...Belinda?

No, Blaire.

Blaire!

*Laughing*

OK, um, Pleasant Company made a line of dolls in Germany. What were they called?

Oh! Beans on toast! You told me this.

Yeah, just the other day.

*Lip Smacking*

I don't remember.

Götz.

G-o-t-z?

Mm-hmm.

Right.

OK, which American Girl movie went to theaters?

Oh, you gotta be kidding me!

There was only one.

I'm sure there was, OK, um...do we own either of them?

We do, yes.

Oh! Come on! Uh, the Kit Kittredge one?  

Yep.

YES!

Nice, first try.

(We only own the Kit movie and the Samantha Holiday one. So she only had to guess from two. XD)

I hear that movie isn't even close to the books.

Oh.

Like, it takes pieces from all six books and-

Kind of squishes it all into one movie?

Yeah.

OK.

So, AG had two dolls from Hawaii. What were their names?

Well, Nanea, and I have no idea.

She was Girl of the Year in 2011.

That so doesn't help me.

Can you guess?

Luciana?

Ah, no. She was last year.

Oh, well.

Kanani.

Oh, Kanani. Never heard of her.

OK, so, which AG characters just retired?

There's four of them?

Yep.

Uh, retired? The one from last year retired.

Yeah, so that's Gabriela.

Uh-h-h,  Luciana?

No,she's still available, which I think is weird. Um, one of them has a letter for a name.

B? G?

The other end of the alphabet.

Z?

Yes.

What? 

Yeah, you didn't know that?

No! Like, she's 'doll #Z'?

No, Z is her name. I think it is short for-

I've never ever heard of this doll! That's totally fake!

Well, I'll have to show you a picture after. OK, the next one plays a guitar.

Wow, that really narrows it down for me.

She's named after a poet.

*Silence*

OK, how about the first boy doll?

*Blows another raspberry*

Uh, Logan?

Yeah.

(We started laughing because that's my brothers name and my mom almost forgot it.)

OK, so after a poet... I'm trying to think of any poets...

I always think that his name is backwards.

Uh, boy, that really helps.

Charge of the Light Brigade?

Oh, Tennyson?

Yes.

Alfred, Lord.

Yeah, which is - why is it backwards, noob. Anyways, her name is Tenney.

Of course it is.

OK, sure, what was Kaya's horse named?

Billy Bob Joe. I have no idea.

Steps High.

Steps High... OK.

Which GOTY had best friend dolls?

Oh, good heavens. You mean years?

No, she was the first GOTY -first and last- to have friends that were made into a doll. All the other GOTYs had friends in their books, but one had friends that were actually available as dolls. 

She was a Girl of the Year?

Yep.

I don't know.

Chrissa Maxwell. 2009. And the last question is... who is your favorite AG doll and why?

Oh, well, duh! It's Molly, because she's from the 1940's and she's so cute!

Although Maryellen is a close second.

Why do you like her?

50's.

(I'm actually not sure if that's an answer, but oh well.)

OK, good enough. That's it.

I failed, I did really badly.

Um... yeah, you did. Well, how many did you get, let me count.

I got very few.

1, 2...

Those were really hard questions.

So, you got 4/10.

That's really bad.

It kinda is.

Those were really hard!

Yeah, they were.

You were trying to be mean.

Yes, that's true.

OK, were done now.

(The rest is just us trying to turn off mom's recording app.)

So I hope that made you all laugh, and maybe you learned something.

I nominate Rose, Kaitlyn, and Freedom Child!

You guys can use my questions or make up your own, but I hope you enjoy!
