Santa gave me Kailey for Christmas 2003! She was around for a year and a half so I was able to save up my allowance to buy her complete collection (since it was before they made the big expensive collections for Girl of the Years). She was my only AG doll growning up and her best friends were my two cousins' Addy and Josefina dolls. I ended up getting Kirsten when they retired her later on. My dolls also helped make an American Girl Pirates of the Caribbean movie back in my babysitting days. I always counted her age as when I got her and it was always crazy to me when the kids I babysat started being younger than my American girl doll. I Didn't even think about her being almost 20! Fun fact the film roll for the camera was also a roll of stickers. I used one in the camera and never took the stickers off, and the other roll it came with is still in it's original packaging. I never wanted to use the stickers and ruin the film roll! Oh and if you press one of Sandy's front paws she barked three times. My batteries wore out over time so it may or may not work on yours.
You post at the best times Brooke I was just about to come to your channel to watch videos during my study break (studying chemistry non stop for my coming up exam, you are one of the reasons I stay so positive and happy during difficult times, Thank you
I think the Coconut dog was from Just Like You... I didn't double check by looking it up, but as a kid I bought a Just Like You doll and got the dog with it. He was very heavy! This era of AG is very nostalgic cause I was VERY into AG in this time period.
Her, Nicki, Lanie and Mia are skipped over a strange amount. Mia got more attention in recent years but back when I first joined agtube and agig I remember getting asked if my Mia was a custom a LOT
Kailey was my first American Girl doll I got her from Santa on Christmas morning from Santa in 2003 then i got her outfits then her dog. Then i learned to read from her book.
Love these American girl doll videos! I've never really had any interest in them but your recent videos have made me appreciate how different they are to anything i've seen on the market here in the uk.
Kailey is Kyle at our house. We love the orange skin tone they have. We don’t have any of the collection though. Her pup has tempted me several times. He’s cute! 😊Great find for $70!
Fun Facts. The reason Kailey is the GOTY for 2003 is because she and Lindsey didn't sell very well. AG kept them both for two years instead of one. Then in 2005 we got Marisol who sold super well and was out of stock sometime in December I believe. Which then led to Jess McConnell being the first GOTY to actually have the title Girl of the Year. Anyway, love the videos!
Yesss more AG content!! 😄The other day I was watching an older video of yours where you found McKenna- I'm always excited to see what you post next, and i would LOVEE to see a restoration video on Kailey and the other girls. I just purchased a Coraline doll from Kid to Kid, and I'm so excited to restore her! I hope you have a good rest of your day Brooke, take care!!
I just started collecting American Girl, and I was able to get this useful book: "American Girl Ultimate Visual Guide". It is a large, hardcover book with great pictures of the historical dolls and Girl of the Years up until 2016. I got mine from Book Outlet in Canada, but I just checked the US Book Outlet, and they have several copies for a price of only $11. I'm not going to go back and collect older dolls like Kailey, so it is really nice to have a record of them in a book.
Are you going to give her her original hairstyle? There are definitely videos on how to. I like Kailey. I always assumed she would wear either but not both of the outfits together. I think the camera opens because there were some underwater pics you could inset and see "blown up" through the camera. I have seen similar toys do that. I have Kailey but not the camera, not the board. She is cute and I am glad you got her.

She’s still one I need and honestly she is fascinating because no one really does talk about her.

Kailey is one of my favs! She’s so cute I love the beach vibe and the all the colors of her collection 🫶✨

Yesss more AG content!! 😄The other day I was watching an older video of yours where you found McKenna- I'm always excited to see what you post next, and i would LOVEE to see a restoration video on Kailey and the other girls.

My daughter got both Coconut and Licorice with a carry bag from her aunt & uncle back in like 2008.
So some Kailey’s have a defect where over time they turn into a carrot… not all of them do this but I know some do.
Hi Dolls 👋 making me want another AG doll...lol 😆 😘💨
yaaas give us the restoration video!!
This doll came out when I was 8 i feel old now (I'll be 28 in January)
Oh..hey💅 made me laugh so hard love u Brooke 💖
I'm not a fan of the dolls but I'll still watch anything doll related...lol. I don't know what I'm missing but all the faces look identical
Enjoyed watching the video. Very entertaining.
Thank you for sharing 🙂
I found out that the pets are the only thing my daughter really liked and the only thing she kept. I have “inherited” her collection of dolls.
fyi the sandy dog has a button that makes her bark
I love your channel and I'm so glad you got her
Kailey is the only GOTY I don’t have yet.

Yey love your vids Brooke
loving the new AG content, i always go back to watch your earlier videos because of it 🤭🫶🏽
Hi what kind of shelves are the ones your dolls are on
IKEA Billy! Walmart has a shelf that’s similar and works very well :)
I keep thinking you say "Meat Outfit" and i think that is very fun
I would change her cloth body to something that matches her limbs so the swimsuit looks better
Hi
No cuz why did I stop watching you?
