When we got to the mall, Mommy was getting the stroller ready for Madeline when she had a thought... Madeline has been sitting up really well on her own, so she decided to try and see if she could sit in the stroller without her big carrier. And she did! And she loved it!

And a little bit later, when she got hungry, she just lounged back and drank her bottle. She held it herself. She is growing up so independently!

After we ate lunch, we got to go to Build-a-Bear! I love making animals there! I chose a lady bug for me and a sweet bear for Madeline. First I stuffed them and put hearts in them.


Then I had to give them baths! I chose an outfit for each one with Grangie's help, and we checked out. Next door is Godiva. I asked very nicely for a heart candy, and since Mommy gets one free piece a month, I got to go in and pick one.

We love our new animals!
