The Adventures of Sara & Camila: My New Friend, Molly

Where do I begin? I did something VERY special today. VERY VERY special.

Sit back and relax because I have a lot to tell.

So this morning Mom picked up Great Grandma Charlotte, Mary Pat (Dad's aunt), and Molly (Dad's cousin). Then, we all went to a really unique place. It's called "Build A Bear".

Here's a picture of Molly and I at the entrance. (I was trying to contain my excitment.)

What were we waiting for? I was ready to run inside!

I couldn't believe my eyes...bears, rabbits, and furry animals EVERYWHERE!!!! I was in stuffed animal heaven!!

Okay, so I had a very tough decision to make. I had to choose 1 animal to fill with fluff. I had to treat this kind of like Goldilocks and her experience in the bears' house. I was going to have to test out some options until I found one that was JUST RIGHT.

I conducted 2 types of tests - "the hug test" and "the stroller test".

Nope. Too big. Too much hair. Weird wheels on shoes.

Cute face. Easy to push in stroller.

Bad posture. Just okay.

Hard to put in stroller. Not soft enough.

She's the one! Soooo cute. Super soft. Huggable. A little shy. JUST RIGHT!!

Now that I had found my perfect furry friend. This kind lady helped me fill her with fluff.

She attached her to the fluff machine. Ouch.

Then, I put my foot on the pedal and the machine began to make a lot of noise. It was filling up my bunny with fluff!

Before we sewed her up, I picked out a heart, kissed it and placed it inside of her.

Instant LOVE!!!

But we weren't done yet! Mary Pat and Molly helped me pick out an outfit for my bunny.
She looked pretty good in this sequin number, but I knew there was even something better.

Then, I had one final decision to make. A tough one. I had to give this bunny a name.

Since I don't get to see Molly often (she lives far away in Wisconsin) I decided to name my bunny after her. Plus, she seems like a really cool girl.

I had one last job to do..(and luckily I've seen Mom and Dad do this before so I knew exactly what to do)...I strapped her in, gave her a kiss...
