Spotlight: Doll #23 Kamden Akina

-

I came up with Kamden's character summer of 2019 but wasn't able to actually add him to my collection till 2022. The more time I spent with kailani the more I knew she had to have a brother, a twin brother. I got Kamden from my first and last AG benefit sale, as the sale was held completely in person the following year which was their last. I'm so glad I was able to get him, he means so much to me, especially right now as we ramp up for baseball season. August 2019 I dipped my toe back into baseball, going to a game for the first time in quite a while, probably 5 or more years. That's also when I came up with Kamden's character, not at that game specifically but around that time. 

Kamden is a huge baseball fan, a Baltimore Orioles fan specifically. His dad spent a large part of his childhood in Baltimore Maryland, a few blocks down from the ballpark, so naturally he became a huge O's fan. Kamden was basically born into loving baseball, it's always been a big part of his life. I’ll dive deeper into his childhood in a story soon.

Kamden is a cis man and gay. Wildly brought despite technically being my 23rd doll, he was my first queer character. Which boggles my mind. Kamden has a terrier mix named Alaia.

If you’re reading this when I put this out, Kamden currently has the doll personal account so go check it out if you want to learn more about him, ask him questions

  Wren sits expectedly on the wooden swing on the front porch. It’s an unusually warm day for mid March, 70°F, sunny clear skies. The world is starting to wake up after a long winter’s slumber. A flock of robins congregate in the front lawn eating the spring season’s first offerings. Wren’s sporting her orange knitted crop top with brown straps, a patchwork pair of jean shorts, and her old reliable boots, dark grey with flowers scattered about. She sits, watching the passing cars with anticipation, looking for a bright lime green Subaru to drive in.  Her bestest friend is coming to the Blog By Dolls household to live with her, like they always dreamed of. Yasmine had sent in a request to join and listed Wren as a point of reference. Needless to say Wren was a wonderful reference and Yasmine passed everything she needed to and will be coming to live in the BBD house! Now to wait for Yasmine to pull up. Wren sways back and forth on the swing as her sister’s red GMC SUV pulls int...

Spotlight: Doll #32- Yasmine Williams

 The plan was to finish up these dolls intros before I added anymore new dolls to the collection, but that's not how it worked out. I asked for a AG outfit for my birthday, but didn't want to ask for a doll because I didn't want anyone spending that much money on me. But my Nana ended up giving me a 125 dollar AG gift card so I used it to get Makena. Her unboxing video is up on my youtube! All my links are on my Socials page here on the blog. Yasmine is a fashionista. She loves styling and posting her ootd. She hopes to become a fashion designer. She grew up a few houses down from Wren and Lark. Yasmine is loosely based off both the Makena character from AG and also one of my best friends growing up. Yasmine loves bright bold colors, lime green being her current fav. but her favorite color switches up often.  Yasmine is a cis woman and being my newest doll I haven't settled on what her sexuality is, I'm thinking pan maybe? She rooms with Wren in the BBD house.  Got ...

 I got Quinnie from my cousin for Christmas. She was one of her dolls and I was so happy to finally have a Marie-Grace doll! Quinnie is a huge true crime junkie. She loves learning about true crime and trying to help move unsolved cases along. She wants to be a forensic scientists. She grew up in New York in a small apartment with her dads, Amos and Daniel. She has Gastroesophageal reflux disease that caused scarring of her esophagus, which in turn caused a narrow esophagus. The narrow esophagus caused Esophageal dysphagia, she now eats her meals through a nasogastric tube. Quinnie is a cis woman and is currently questioning her sexuality. She has two dogs, Yarrow and Basil. She doesn't live in the BBD house. Any quinnie questions? Ask away!
