Build A Bear with Aunt Nan

Aunt Nan took us to Build A Bear for an early birthday treat! Ben & Kate both picked out and "built" a teddy bear all their own. Kate picked a pink teddy bear and Ben picked a *lovely* bright blue teddy bear with rainbow peace signs.

Picking out hearts for the bears

Getting the bears stuffed.


Giving the bears a "bath" and brushing them

Picking out an outfit and shoes for the bears. Ben picked a basketball get up and a fireman costume for his bear. Kate picked a Sleeping Beauty dress and a ballerina tutu for hers- very telling about what they are both into right now!


The finished products!

In their houses and ready to go home!


We enjoyed a cookie, played in the play area and had a yummy lunch at California Pizza Kitchen. Thanks Aunt Nan for the bears and a fun morning! We love you!
