Build A Bear

We drove out to a mall quite a ways away from us so Ethan could get the special edition game that he wanted at a good price. As we were wondering around the mall looking for the GameStop, Natalie saw Build-A-Bear! She squealed, jumped up and down, and begged to go in! What a fun thing to do! We walked the side of the store that had all the animals she could chose to "build" until she chose this very colorful bear!


When it was finally her turn, the lady let her press the pedal that made the machine work.


She chose a little fabric heart that she rubbed to make it cuddly, put close to her heart to make lovable, put close to her ear to make it a good listener, spun in a circle while she made a wish, then gave it a kiss before putting it in her bear which was then sewn up.


She also picked out a little dress and purse for her new bear!


She was sooo excited to go there! She has been carrying "Sasha" around with her constantly, sleeping with her, and even took her when she got her teeth pulled! She keeps talking about going back and getting her more clothes (although I think she'd be tempted to get another animal!)...that and its almost a 45 min drive! ;-) Thank you Uncle Nathan!!!
