Build-A Bear Workshop

On Sunday, November 15, 2009, Mama, Jared, & I took Xander to Build-A-Bear Workshop. Mama was letting Xander build a bear for his birthday. It is always so cute to see a child build their first bear! Xander was no exception!
Xander picked out a rabbit to build.

He decided to put a giggle heart in his rabbit.

Time to stuff the rabbit!

Warming the rabbit's heart and everything else you are supposed to do to the heart!


Pushing the pedal to stuff the rabbit.


The rabbit is ready!


Washing & brushing his rabbit!


Time to dress the rabbit. We thought it was funny because we just knew he would choose one of the Star Wars or Batman or Spiderman outfits, but he chose a regular outfit. A t-shirt with a treasure map on it, blue jeans, and tennis shoes. That kid'll surprise you!





Time to name the rabbit! After careful deliberation, Xander came up with a name! (The couple beside us were laughing at Xander as he was throwing names out there!)

Meet Map Ears!


Jared took Xander over to the Lego store after he had finished building Map Ears. Jared said Xander walked in and the man who works there said, "Welcome to the Lego Store!" Xander replied, "We're not buying anything, we're just looking!" Jared said the man laughed. You never know what kids'll say!
