Build A Bear!

We took Alex to Build A Bear to get his very own bear/dog for his first birthday.  This is now a tradition since we did this for Ryans first birthday....and if we have any more kids we will do it for them.  Ryan was excited to go back and he brought his bear Zachary for a visit.  There are so many bears it was hard to choose but we narrowed it down to 3 and let Alex choose which one.  The last 2 were between a bear and a dog and he choose the dog.  He loves dogs so he choose pretty good.  We got the bears stuffed, it was given a heart, a bath and we choose clothes for it and the usual birthday cupcake to go with it.  It was great and he loved it.  We knew we had to choose a name for it so Kevin choose and named it Slater lol.  Here are some of my fav pics from our outing.
