I want to say again how touched I am by the outpouring of advice and support following my last post. Thank you. I've been thinking a lot about many of your suggestions...and I haven't bought a new doll since January 8th. I also haven't set foot inside a toy store for more than a month, which--for me--is really good. The nice thing is, I still have a pretty big backlog of awesome dolls to review, so it's possible to continue blogging (as many of you mentioned) without constantly running out to buy the next new thing.
The doll I bought on January 8th is actually the doll I'm reviewing today--and I bought her for personal reasons that I'll explain along the way. She's Miss Lea Clark, the new American Girl of the Year. I think she's really pretty, but it was her pet sloth (along with one of the new Truly Me accessory sets) that really won me over:
