Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Oh, Sonya, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. And poor little Sunshine too. Please don't blame yourself, you did the best you could. Lots of hugs for you and Sunshine. :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Congrats on the new babies. Oh, they are so tiny and sweet! You must definitely share growing-up pics with us!

I'm so sorry the second one didn't make it. 

Here's a couple I found. I have no idea how they will turn out since I crochet but don't knit. Anyway try searching for patterns designed for pets. They're sure to have those earholes!

Any news for us yet? Can't wait to see the pups!

Hehe, it worked! Although I did have to cheat...I don't really want to eat chocolate any times during a week...so I just chose a random number for part one!

What a really great idea! Thanks goes out to everyone involved for the awesome new feature!

Oh, I can't wait to see the tiny puppies. Where are they? Can you tell the little lady to hurry up please?

I just checked out all the great pics on your website. Really awesome job getting the whole thing together! Maybe one of these days I could make it up there.

Wow, Laura, what a fun and interesting read. Sounds like you had a wonderful and successful event. Did you take any pics to share with us?  I bet the atmosphere was really cozy.

Wonderful news, Sabine! Congratulations! Suzie is adorable and very deserving of a cover!

Hehe, I think that is awesome. What a treasure that little critter will be for years to come.

Aww, he's really cute! His paws look so big with those extra toes. I saw a polydactal cat once but he only had 6. Well, I hope you get away with bringing him in the house.  How 'bout Ernie for a name, short for Ernest.

I'm a sucker for cats, too. About 2 or 3 days after we moved to our new house I found a cat hiding in the bushes. I lured her our with food and now she's a permanent fixture. She does have to stay outside though. I was actually surprised that Daniel said she could come in, but my indoor cat does not like any other cats in the house. I tried a couple times before, but it never worked out. We also have another cat that comes over about once or twice a week for food. I bought him his own dishes for on the porch. 

What a great little bear, Millie. I would not have guessed beets either. Very pretty color.

Congrats on your new kitty, and of course, good luck with the hubby when he finds out! Seven toes?  Can't wait to see some pics.

Jane, what a wonderful birthday gift. And isn't your little girl just the cutest?!

Oh, Lynette, I'm so sorry to hear this news. I'll keep her in my thoughts and prayers. And please feel okay to come here and let it all out. Really, Lynette, we don't mind. After all, that's part of what this place is all about. Lots of hugs. :hug:  :hug:

Yeah, Strawberry's a wholesome girl. We have almost all of the movies and I tell you, that kid could watch nothing but Strawberry all day long! Your niece and my daughter are really close in age. I saw in another thread that Maelynn turns 4 in Jan? Natalia does too. 

Oh, I just love all the teddy and blankie stories. Well, except for the scissorman story. That's creepy. I can't imagine sitting down at night telling my 3-year old that story. 

Well, I can't remember if I had a teddy or not. I guess if I did it wasn't very special. I do remember a couple of my favorite dolls. My mom saved some of my toys and recently got them down from the attic. There were some Barbies and other sorts of dolls and the cutest little Strawberry Shortcake dolls. They were the baby versions of the characters and had little bottles and could wet their pants. I do remember really loving those little dollies. I guess I think it's neat now since Strawberry has made a comeback and now my little girl is infatuated with her!

Oh my, she's still at it. Maybe one of you ladies who have her number should call and talk to her mother. Maybe she'll get grounded from the telephone for a while.

Great job, Heather! I, too, quit smoking and not a moment too soon, since I recently got pregnant. I did want to lose about 10 lbs., but I guess I'm off the hook for now! I used to be a Pepsi-holic, but I have almost eliminated soda from my diet. That's good for the baby and my waist!

Anyone else gonna share? And of course, a big thanks to Sue Ann.

Oh, Sophie, I'm so glad your sweet little kitty is finally home. She's soooo cute!

Oh, Brenda, I truly feel for you. I moved just a couple months ago. As much as I hate packing everything up, unpacking is the real nightmare! I've been in this house for 3 months and the only things that got put in proper places are the dishes and clothes. I have no clue what to do with the rest. I've finally moved the remaining boxes to the basement where I bet they stay for a very long time! Okay, I'm sorry, I am no help at all! At least you know you're not alone.

Yep, I think you're right, Aleta, we are due for a fuzzy slipper night. But of course, I'll have to have a cup of tea. 

Louise, your little baby is just beautiful. What a fun new venture to get into. Best wishes for much success! :hug:

I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling well, Jodi. Best wishes for a quick recovery so you can enjoy your birthday! :hug:
