A Bear Named Rock

We took Stone to Build-A-Bear Workshop on the Saturday before NYC.  We had some time to waste while waiting for the IC students to finish shopping and I thought Stone would enjoy it.  

Here is Stone with the outer shell of the bear he chose.  He was so excited to try this out.   
Stone is getting ready to give his bear a heart; but not before he has to give it all the heart needs, love, listening ears, compassion.  (I have to say this part was so darling.)
Watching his bear get all the stuffing and be brought to "life".
Bear is ready to be cuddled.  
Stone name bear, Rock and chose a fun costume for him.  Rock is ready to go home with Stone. 
Stone trying out the Batman costume on Rock.  

Rock went all the way to New York City with us and he even got a few t-shirts from Grandma.  I am sure Rock and Stone will have many adventures together!

Looks like fun. We just walked past a build a bear workshop in the mall today and Carly asked to go inside. I told her we'd see later in our trip. Maybe on another shopping day that wasn't so busy. It does look like fun, that's for sure. And at this point, Carly could do it and Isaac wouldn't be concerned to make his own. He's too young to worry about things being fair. Only a matter of time though.
