M.I.A.

While we were visiting my sweet grandparents in St. George we decided to go to the mall to shop. We only made it through Dillard’s before my kids were ready to go home. When we got to the car we realized that “Bear” aka "Stinky" was missing. Which is a huge deal considering Izabela can’t do ANYTHING without him. If you don’t believe me read this.


Anyway, my mom and Jakob went looking for him and couldn’t find him.

By this time I am panicking.

So Kori and I go back in to look hoping for a better outcome. We called customer service but they said no pink bear had been turned in yet. So we traced our tracks again but found nothing.

We were walking out and Kori said we should walk over to customer service and give them our number in case they find him.

When we were talking to them Kori said “This bear is so important to her baby. It’s like her little blanky that she has to have. It’s so worn out and beat up.”

Then one of the girls points to the garbage and says “I think this might be it”. The funny thing was that no one wanted to pick him up out of the garbage.

Poor little bear.

So I said “Well, I can come around the counter and see if it’s him.

The lady said “You can’t come back here”. So she grabbed a Dillard’s plastic bag and picked him up so she actually didn’t have to touch the bear. We totally forgot to take a picture with the bear and bag. It was hilarious!!!

But hey…….

We found him!!!!!

I learned my lesson and decided it would be a smart decision to have some back-ups just in case

2 Bears down and 6 more to go through......

That is so funny. If Isaac gets attached to something, I will have to remember to stock up!

That's a great idea to stock-up... especially since they always retire those beanie babies!!
Those should get her through a couple of years!!

that is hilarious! I read your other post, and was laughing so hard. Her face when you gave her the new one was like... "what the..." She is so cute. I'm glad you found her little bear.

That is the best! I love the "reserves." Little do they know they will be slobbered and dingy in no time! Miss ya!
