The Build-a-Bunny!!!

She needs stitches!!! :o)

She has a voice box in her arm that is now trying to come out. I wonder if we take her back if they would stitch her up again :o(. That voice box in my daughter's favorite part, it my recorded voice saying "Jesus loves you baby girl".

It's been almost a year since JJ picked her floppy bunny out.
She couldn't wait to fill her with stuffing...
... but that's just what we had to do... wait - in line... she was such a good girl, so patient.
This is Sally-bunny after she was just born :o)
And here she is after her mommy got her all dressed :o)
Did I mention her mommy rode a pony at the mall after just after giving birth?! Isn't that amazing! LOL - there I go, being strange again.
No really... This was such a sweet time for JJ and I. We went out alone without the rest of the family and we really needed it! This was about two months after her little sister was born and we were not getting along so well. She was going through a phase of not wanting to kiss me, hug me or sit next to me - this was all SO SOOO hard on my end also... so I decided we needed to go on a date!!! :o) I am still so glad we did.

Aww... I wish I could just stitch her up for you! I've done many such "surgeries" through the years. One way or other, I hope Sally Bunny gets all fixed up soon.

What a little cutie pie your JJ is, and what a great memory for both of you!

What a cutie she is! I'm pretty sure Build a Bear would repair her baby. ;)

That is so good that you were able to take her out on a mommy daughter date. It must be hard when other siblings come. I can only imagine. You are such a good mommy! I love the voice box idea. What a comfort to her it must have been.

Each of my children have gotten Build-a-Bears from a sweet friend in the States. I'm super excited that I have a little girl and I'm going to make them matching dresses for the summer, I know I'm a bit nuts but isn't that the fun of having a girl after two very boyish boys.
p.s. CJ loved the video and I think she has her first blogger friend, lol.

p.s.s I'm working on getting this blog up

So did she start to hug and kiss you again after your date? I loved your comment about riding a horse right after giving birth! HAHA. My girls have Build-a-Bears too, Veronica and Sasha. They each got them on their 8th birthdays. Now they are 10 and 11 and they still love to dress their babies in different outfits and sleep with them every night.
