Build-A-Bear 2009

We took the girls for our annual Build-A-Bear Christmas trip today. Emily chose a dog for the third year in a row and named her Chance. Abigail picked a frog and named her Verde (green in Spanish). They were both a little unsure of the loud stuffing machine, but Abigail eventually helped by pushing the pedal. They put hearts in their animals, gave them baths, and dressed them in pajamas. This year was different from the years past. They were much more interested and involved in the whole process. Emily amazed us with her memory. She said "We are going to give them a bath." She remembered that from last years' trip, when she was only 21 months old. Abigail stuffing her frog. The girls warming the hearts before putting them in their new friends. Emily washing Chance.
