We used to just slide them off! Ugh, I don't wanna get a paper cut!
Welcome to the Gracie and Mommy Show. My middle part's on fleek so I'm trying to make it look
less middle-party. She's got a thing about the middle part. Today, so you saw the video
where we took Ivy - whoa, Ivy - we took Ivy to the American Girl store, right, in New
York to see the new Truly Me releases. Hey Ivy.
Okay, so you saw that we looked at a whole bunch of stuff - everything in the store,
pretty much - but you don't know what we got. So we each got a doll. That's right. I got
my second American Girl doll - she's gonna open this one. I'm really gonna open this
one. The story of - I got Kit, I really wanted Kit, and then she went into a corner of the
studio where I put things that don't urgently need to be reviewed - like there are things
that need to be urgenty reviewed? Just go with it. And um, I have my own priorities,
and then it just sort of kept not happening, and then Gracie wanted to make a boy doll...
and so I gave her my Kit doll so she could re-wig her to make her a boy, because I started
to feel bad about having two Kit Kittredge dolls. So you know while we were there we
looked at the new Truly Me's, right, and what were you debating about getting? Oh - I was
debating about getting 55 or 49. Okay. And 49's not a new Truly Me though, right? No.
Neither is 55. So we did see - there was the one - there's the new Truly Me, what number
is she, is she 62? The one who's got the olive complection and the dark hair and the dark
eyes. No, that's not the one you got. She doesn't have dark eyes. Oh. And then there's
an Asian one, and then there's a black doll, with cute little short hair. Right. And there
was also a new blonde doll. She has a bob, she had a new just above the shoulder bob.
I think she had blue eyes, cause all the blonde ones have blue eyes. Which one did she get?
Dun dun dun! I got number 49. She ended up getting number 49. Her hair's really jacked,
it's not her fault, she came like this! Okay, so number 49 has wavy hair. If you had to
do - okay, don't listen for a second, okay, let me cover her ears. If you had it to do
over again, would you get number 49 again? Yes. Even though she's got the wavy hair?
Yeah I knew she had wavy hair. Okay so you were okay with it. Okay. And what did you
name number 49? I named her Skylar. Also before you all yell at me - her hair came kind of
matted and strange, so -- Yeah, out of the box her hair was already like not super - it
wasn't mashy mashy, but it wasn't super silky smooth either, so. Here, let's get Skylar
close up to the camera. Hi! I'm Skylar. She's very cute. She's very cute, and this is the
new Truly Me outfit. I like it better than the other one, cause it's like, it fits your
doll's personality no matter what your doll's personality is, because the last one was so
girly. And I thought you were gonna be so ticked off because this was a dress. What
I love is that the shoes are blue. It's kinda like a sweater dress. Yeah, with sort of - let
me see if I can get it to focus. Sorry Skylar, gotta tip you sideways kind of. See the shoes?
Those are so cute! It's a pretty basic outfit, and now - and now whenever I get a new My
American Girl Truly Me, Just Like You, whatever you call it, I don't have to have 1 million
of the pink shirt and the grey skirt and the boots. I love the boots, but -- The boots
were really cute, but I dig these shoes. Can I take your shoe off for a second sweetie?
Sure, go ahead Mommy! Here you go. I'm not Mommy, I'm grandma, by the way. That's okay.
And there is - you see? It's got little sparklies on it and it's really cute. It's a pretty
neutral dress, it isn't like automatically girly. Not super girly. And I like the - oops,
we were just like showing everybody your undies. Whooooa, censor bar! And um, it's got a tiny
bit of like toule up here with like a sequined, and on the bottom it's got toule with sequins,
so it's not like super sequined. So the Truly Me dolls have the Love To Layer accessories
that we showed you, and we did get those. Yay, we finally get to put these on! Yes!
Okay, so here we go. Can you have a seat? You have a seat right there with Grandma.
So it comes with - that cool vesty denimy looking thing. And let me get a close up on
that. It's got these little patches on it, it's got like AG, oh so cute. And wait, can
I show them what else it comes with? It comes with this headband with a tag that's bigger
than the headband itself. Yeah okay wait. It comes with this gold headband which is
different. You wouldn't expect that with this outfit. It comes with these cute little tiny
hair claws, which I love. I'm going to put all of this stuff on her. Wait wait wait,
let me show them the rest of the stuff. And then it comes with scrunchies - all the little
scrunchies - and it comes with this toule skirt overlay so you can make her blingy.
Bling bling. Excuse me, excuse me. Ahh! Don't worry, it's not on camera, and you still have
your undies on.
I don't know why, but Gracie takes the undies off. Did we ever tell you the story of when
we had to write raps about explorers? Oh my gosh, wait, who was your explorer? I had Roscoe
D. Balboa - that guy, and we had to make puppets of them to go with it, and we made puppets
of dressed up Barbies. I made them from scratch out of a styrofoam ball. And he had like a
hat, and hair, and - he had a fabulous hat. Okay, so there she is with the toule skirt
on. I like it with the toule skirt. What do you think? I think it makes me fancier. You
know what I love? I love how your shoes match your eyes. Okay, let's put the vest on her.
So what is this other thing, while you're dressing her. What is this? This came with
something? I think it's like - it's like a color wheel or something? I dunno, I don't
remember grabbing this, but it was in the bag. Gracie seems to think it came with something.
I think it just comes with the doll. With the Truly Me? Okay. Oh my God, my eye's so itchy.
Wait, I don't have glasses handy. I only have these! It's so satisfying to itch your eye.
I only have these, I don't wanna wear these! You have to, it's your destiny! Oh wait, I
do have glasses. I have the black and white polka dot hipster glasses. Ha ha. Check me
out. Now I can see. So this is from the play section of the American Girl. Pick a color,
choose an activity, I dunno. It has something to do with the Truly Me. We're so profesh,
#SoProfesh. I'm gonna put all the things on her. She's gonna put all the stuff on her.
You guys can admire my art. And I'm gonna show you this thing while she puts all of
the stuff on her. So this is a box - it's a box! It's a box! It's a box of activities, maybe?
How to use your Truly Me spinner. Oh okay. It's easy! Just spin and match and discover
something new to do. This must come with the... Oh, so it's all... Oh. It's all these different
activity card things with all the different Truly Me, Terrarium, Make It... It looks like
an ad for all of their stuff. It's a big ad for activities that you can do if you buy
all this stuff. Yay, presents. Okay, so that's interesting. That is a very unique and bizarre
-- Can you hand me the green scrunchy? Green scrunchy, oh. And I'm dizzy, because --
So, now the next question is, then you saw me trying to decide whether or not I wanted
to get Julie. And I really like Julie, and I love all of Julie's clothes, and I grew
up in the 70s so Julie has a soft spot in my heart. Do you wanna cut off the tag? Or
do you wanna leave it there ala Mini Pearl. Mini Pearl was a - comment down below if you
know who Mini Pearl was - I'm just gunna say two words, hee-haw!
Okay, I've dressed her -- Alright, show us!
Look at that. You are wearing everything right now. You're wearing all of the accessories.
Talk about loving the layer! Ba dum tsss. So much layering. How do you feel about the
accessories there, Skylar? Ehh it's a bit much, maybe, and I kinda - the tag, I dunno.
I dunno. Still, that tag is bigger than - that tag is huge, and she put them on like wristbands.
Cool!
But the thing about Julie is she's a blonde with what color eyes Gracie? Brown. What color
eyes do I have? Green, and we already have Julie, so that was kind of my thing. I was
like, do we really need a second Julie so I can dress her up in 70s clothes that Gracie
doesn't like to do that? And it is so hot in here guys, ehhh. So I decided to get...
Truly Me, number 52. 52. She is the only blonde with green eyes. And you know Mommy used to
have long hair, so - well they don't make a pixie cut doll, which we think they should.
All the pixie cut girls out there need to band together and they need to make - Presley,
and yeah, Presley got Kit because it was the closest thing to a pixie cut doll that they
had that was -- Oh my God. Let me do it, I'm a professional. Can you help me, I'm so hot,
and I don't mean that in a good looking kind of way! You are good looking. Thank you! Oh
that does come with a Just Like Me little wheel o' activity thing. See? It's right there.
You're a master at this, huh? They made the box harder to open I think. Cause it used
to just - we used to just slide them off! Ahh... I don't wanna get a paper cut! This
is the intro! #TheStruggleIsReal! I don't wanna get a paper cut man! Wait here, you
know what, I don't really care about keeping the top, so there we go. Ta da!
Oh okay, so wait. Oh, it comes - alright. Mystery solved. That activity book comes in
your package. That advertisement comes -- that advertising book, that book o' - Hey, here's
some other stuff you should buy, so you can do these cool activities! Spin the activity
wheel, but if you don't have those American Girl playsets, you can't do the activity!
Let's do this. So there she is. Pick a color - let's pick green. Choose an activity...
I'm gonna pick food. You're gonna pick food? I'm gonna pick green, and we don't have any
American Girl food. Green and food. I don't have scissors over here, it's all the way
over there. But I don't need a scissors, I should just be able to get it out of the box.
Look at these advertisements. I should've done this before the video... #SoProfesh.
Which means they should be just like us, because that's -- Ahh, I'm finally out of the box!
Yes you are. Spats, meow meow box! Spats loves American Girl boxes. Now her hair is in this
little side pony thingy.
Now I have not picked a name for her yet, but I am thinking of Jennifer, because everybody
in the 70s was named Jennifer. Everybody. Like, that was like if you were born in the
70s. Now the cool thing is that her green eyes are a lot like my green eyes in that
they're not like light green, like Krista has light eyes, and Gugga has light green
eyes, I actually have dark green eyes sort of, so they're not like so - they're more
almost hazely than green. But they're dark green, so I like that. And her hair - I did
have bangs at some point in my life. Now we can take out the pony. Finally! And her hair
is not too bad! But - it's better than my hair! Your hair is beautiful, you just need
to have it brushed out, that's all! So there she is. So my plan for her, for Jennifer - here
they go. When your outfit's on fleek. See I didn't get the accessories, because I want
to dress up in the 70s clothes, and my name is Jennifer, just like all the girls born
in the 70s were named Jennifer. Flick! Hair flip. Hair flip. Hair flip. Hair flip.
Okay, so now let's show you - Gracie? May we have some outfits please? Okay, let's - so
we did buy some outfits, so we're gonna dress up our girls, but let's show you the outfits
first. We'll show you everything we got and then we'll dress 'em up. So this is the Starry
Hoodie outfit. Mhmm, thank you. The Starry Hoodie outfit. This was Gracie's - Gracie
liked this one. So it's a hoodie with stars on it, and it says AG, and it comes with - thank
you - it comes with these funky blue and charcoal grey leggings. Thank you. And these really
cool blue sort of turquoise and ocean blue shoes. And there's my accessories. And this
totally cool headband! So that's one of the outfits we got. Oh, I'm gonna dress -- So
Skylar's gonna wear this outfit? Okay, now... I did get... So what did I get to dress my
doll like Julie? I got... Oh yeah, this doesn't have - Oh, and do you remember the video - I
have to remember to put this in the end card. When we got, who did we get when we met Amy
the first time? Was that Kaya? No no no, was that Grace? That was when we got Amy Lucy.
Okay, remember when we went to American Girl Doll, and the American Girl associate that
helped us name was Amy, and so the doll that Gracie was gonna name Lucy, we were like maybe
we should name her Amy after the person that waited on us? Well she was there again, Amy,
and she remembered us, and so we told her - you know what, we actually ended up calling
the doll Lucy Amy. Guess what Amy's sister's name is? Lucy. She was like, that is so weird,
my sister's name is Lucy! How weird is that.
So this is what I got. I'm a member of the illuminati guys. Illuminati confirmed. I got
Julie's skateboarding outfit, so there's her cool shirt. There's her skateboard. I did
not skateboard, I did not, I was a roller skater, but the sneakers. I like totally had
these sneakers. And I do believe I had shorts like this with the rainbow on the side. Yeah.
And I know for a fact that I had me some awesome knee socks with some color stripes on them.
So that is one outfit that Jennifer is going to try on. Now I mentioned roller skates,
correct? Mhmm. My absolute favorite Christmas gift ever was my sneaker skates, so I totally
had to get the sneaker skates from the 70s. I even had a red stopper. Mine were red white
and blue though, but like, mine even had the red stopper! And the skates even come with
funky socks, cause we liked our socks in the 70s. I got Julie's accessories from her - that's
like her Meet outfit stuff, because it comes with this cool tiedye purse, these funky 70s
glasses, and this really adorable headband. So I didn't get her new Meet clothes, but
I got her accessories cause I like them. But what I'm going to put her in now, is.. And
then we can just give Ivy some of these clothes. Yeah, we'll dress Ivy up in these. Back in
the day, she was Julie's best friend. Yes she was.
I got the *** print dress. The sundress. This was like, sundresses were like the thing.
Ah! I had a sundress. And then it's got this sort of like belty thing, where you can do
like a hair, like a hair wrappy thing. That's actually how they had it displayed on the
doll. Yeah. She's got a bracelet, necklace, and these cool lookin' Earth shoes. Alright.
So we are now going to dress up all our girls.
Our girls are dressed. Our girls are dressed. Our girls are all dressed up.
So Ivy is wearing the skateboard outfit, so she's got the funky sneaks with the cool sassy
knee-highs, the awesome gym shorts, I like the shirt, and the bow is actually from Julie's
accessories. You got her? It's a flower.
Jennifer is wearing the sunglasses that came with Julie's accessories, and she's got the
cool drawstring bag that came with Julie's accessories, and then she's got the headband
thing - here, sit down - she's got the little headband babooshka thing. No, babooshka is
a thing you wear on your head, a papoose is something you wear on your back to hold the
baby. And um, it - she got this little neck, this little plastic bracelet. We used to have
these cool sort of - plastic was a big deal. She got her love beads, man, and her Earth
shoes, which you just love. So cute. I'm so happy! I am so happy. I don't think - I don't
know that I'll leave the sunglasses on her, maybe we'll put the glasses up there, but
I'm very happy with Jennifer. Very happy. What is Skylar wearing? The starry hoodie!
Ride away, 70s, we're in modern times! Modern times. Girls wear hoodies and leggings and
stuff. They have these cool shoes and this headband. Yeah. Very cool. Very cool.
