Tuggle Bear

Elijah has a bear from the Build-A-Bear store, that he named Tuggle Bear. The other day, we were at the mall and we went into the Build-A-Bear store. They have a new version of the "Tuggle Bear," that Elijah and I were talking about getting for Emme. After we walked away from the bin with the "Tuggle Bears" in it, a lady ran over and grabbed one. Apparently she had heard us talking about the bear, because she took it over to her son and husband and said "I think we should get this bear, it is called a Tuggle Bear and it is very soft and machine washable." She did end up buying the bear, and we watched them stuff it for them. When it was all stuffed, she handed the bear to her son and said "here is your Tuggle Bear, be nice to Tuggle Bear and love him very much." Awesome! There is another little boy out there now, who will be calling his bear Tuggle Bear. Too funny! (Tuggle Bear is wearing one of Emme's shirts and some of her old booties because after seeing all of the animals dressed up at the store, Elijah said he didn't want his Tuggle Bear to be naked. It was immodest! What a goof!) (Also Emme has decided that she has to be wearing her jelly shoes and her yellow head band at all times. She only takes them off for baths and for bed.)

What a funny story. Tuggle bear looks good in a t-shirt and booties. Emme and the jelly shoes and headband is funny too - the phases kids go through. LOL

I love it! That is so awesome. Who wouldn't want a Tugggle Bear, right? We should definitely get Emme. I knew Eli would catch onto the whole idea of dressing up the animals eventually- darn it! Well, Tuggle Bear looks awesome in what he is wearing and I am sure he is glad that Eli doesn't want him to be naked. Such goofy kids!
