Week 10 Joyousness
I have a Build a Bear! OMG he's so cute! And he's sooooo soft too. I chose the velvet one that is "allergy and asthma friendly." Tonight Lo and I went out to Fox Valley Mall tonight since we didn't have a lot to do, and she wanted a plant since she had to get rid of her babies (her pet rats). So we went out. I'd never been to Fox Valley before. Fucking enormous mall. Pretty close to the size of Schaumburg.
Anyway, yeah. She says, "Let's go to Build a Bear!" cause she wanted to look for a new bear. I'd been in one before, but not to make a bear. So Lo convinced me to make my own bear, and she'd buy it for me. So exciting! So I picked out this cute little one, and I got a beating heart for him too. Naming him was the hard part. I told Lo that I'd imagine that it's easier to name your own baby, since you have nine months to think about it, as opposed to, "Hey look I just made a bear! What should I name it?" The one lady there suggested Charlie, and it just stuck. His nickname (of the nickname?) is Chaz. SO CUTE! Yayness.
Then we ate at the food court and had free pie at Baker's Square. Mmmm!!! Amazingness!
We've eaten so much in the past few days. We also got chocolate mousse cake at Le Chocolat last night. OMFG! Soooooo incredible. Luckily we shared the piece, otherwise we'd have to be rolled out of there. It was her first time at Le Chocolat, and she was so thrilled. It was the one time I'd ever not envied her for her inability to smell because that place smells absolutely incredible. Here we are with our nummy dessert (doing the "arm linky thing"):
I'm going to gain a good 20 pounds by Friday. XD That's alright. I'm very content in my absolute favorite week of the term: 10.
