Doll Feet? What Is Up With The Different Sized American Girl Feet?

Recently Madelon and I were discussing the apparent size difference in the American Girl Doll Feet.

Is anyone else noticing the different sized feet when trying on shoes that have always tradditionally fit American Girl Dolls?

Seen here are Madelon's MyAG doll and Grace

Does anyone else see what we are seeing? Let us know if you are having issues with the size of your AG dolls feet, are you fining each foot different? Or is it just a new mold thing? Or is it in our minds?
We invite you to discuss!

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

Today we celebrate Dr. Seuss's Birthday. Madelon found some wonderful doll sized blank Dr. Seuss journals for $1 each !

" I recently went to Barnes and Noble and I saw signs for Dr. Seuss's birthday. I found three blank Dr. Seuss journals which I purchased for a dollar each. In my craft stash were a set of six regular size Oh, the Places You'll Go pencils. I cut the pencils down to doll size using a clamp."

 

These three little books are perfect for doll play!

Top left doll is a 2009  Madame Alexander Doll and the bottom right is a Tolly Tots doll. For those of you I know are going to write and ask me!
Thank you Madelon for sharing your find and dolls with us today.

This past summer one of my sons read Who Was Dr. Seuss (this is a series I buy and love) and we really enjoyed learning all about Dr. Seuss.
