Last weekend we went to the Build a Bear store. I’d never been inside of one, though I passed it by many times. It always looked kindof fun, but also like a money trap, I have to admit. However, this time it was a necessity. Sweets is going to be a flower girl in a wedding next weekend and the bride wants to give her a Build a Bear outfit… though neither of the flower girls actually have a Build a Bear. Anyway, she requested that we bring the bears to the rehearsal dinner. So off we went.

Sweets walked in the door and zeroed in on the only pink animal in site. It is fluffy, with white hearts on it. She got to pick out a sound for it’s little foot (not surprisingly, one of the things her bear says is “I love shopping!”) Then she got to warm up a little heart with her hands and drop it inside before stepping on the pedal that made the bear fill up with stuffing. After that, it was off to groom it and pick out an outfit. More pink. 3 shades of pink sparkles in the shape of a tutu and ballet shoes, to be exact. She even got to make a birth certificate for it.

All in all, I thought it was a fun trip, and Pinky has been by her side continuously since we brought her home!
