Build-A-Bear

About a week ago, James got to pick out his Build-A-Bear from Berry!  Ramsey and John also have Build-A-Bear's from Berry they received a few years ago.  They still sleep with them and are a very important part of the Jennings family!  This time it was James' turn!  He picked out the cutest Koala! 
Here he is stuffing his Koala.  Then he gave him a beating heart and he was ready!


John helped James give him a bath.



James was so excited! 


 So Beary proud of his Build-A-Bear, Wala Koala!  Wala got a Razorback t-shirt and a football.  Can you tell that James loves him?  He has slept with him every night since and is very protective of him.  He likes to say, "Where's Wala?"

This is James' first night with him.  James was nice to give Berry the daybed in his room so he slept in the pack-in-play.  He also sleeps with "paci bear".  It has an actual paci in it's mouth.  James loves him too.

FLASHBACK
 Ramsey's Build-A-Bear is a dinosaur.  A triceratop to be exact.  He named him Chicot and we have no idea where he got that name.  It was also the day he got his cast at three years old.  Poor baby!


Here's John with his Build-A-Bear, the monkey, George.  Sorry for the blurry picture. 


The day John got George.  See George laying in the bed?  John had moved to his big boy bed so he got to go to Build-A-Bear.

Thanks Berry for Chicot, George, and Wala!  They are special little animals for three special little boys!

Oh my kids love their build a bears! Turner and Maggie have slept with them too! It's such a fun place to go on a special day. Maggie's friend had a birthday party there and she got to make her first Monkey ( just like John).

I need to take Samuel. He would get a kick out of building one. Your guys just get more handsome by the day!
