Build-A-What?

A few weeks ago, Logan, Aunt Haley and Alec came to visit for the day.  We didn’t have much planned other than eating, shopping and going to Sweet CeCe’s, so when we walked by Build-A-Bear, we just had to go in.  It didn’t take long for Logan to pick out what he was going to make.  I am pretty sure it was a Chipmunk…. once everything was chosen, stuffed, given a heart, sewn up, bathed, dried, dressed, combed and named, the final product resulted into Alvin Hulk.  Alvin Hulk made numerous changes throughout the day back and forth between each alter ego.  Charley set her sights on a “da” (dog) as soon as we walked in the door.  She wagged that “da” around determined to take it home with her.  Even after we stuffed and sewed up her “da” with a heart and barking sound, we had to trick her into taking it and not the one on display.  Alec was so good with Charley.  She followed her around, picked her up, and played with her all day!  She was especially helpful in Build-A-Bear when it came to naming our “da!”  When she was little she built a “da” too, so we went with her suggestion of Belle as the name.  Belle wasn’t complete until she had two red hair bows to match Charley!  This is the second year in a row that we’ve had a fun Nashville day with Logan and Aunt Haley…Logan and I are already planning fun things for next year…kind of funny since its only June and I am sure we will do something fun before a whole year passes by, but Logan and I still really like talking about next year’s fun day!  We are thinking The Lion King at TPAC will be the perfect fun time together!  Who knows, we have a whole year to come up with something!
