Build-A-Bunny

Today Esther and I got to have a girls' day out together. We dropped Peter off at my parents' house and first headed to the dentist for my regular cleaning. She came along so that she could see what it's like in preparation for her own appointment next time I go. She thought it was pretty cool brushing the stuffed starfish's teeth while I had mine cleaned.

Next we were off for the highlight of the day, a trip to Build-A-Bear with Grandma Kuperus. This was her birthday present from Grandpa and Grandma. When Grandma first told her about it several weeks ago, she decided right away that she wanted to pick a bunny, so she's been calling it Build-A-Bunny ever since. She was a little overwhelmed when we first got in the store, but quickly chose her bunny, and after getting it stuffed, she picked out a lovely ensemble of all things pink (big surprise).

After a ride on the carousel, we headed off to Applebee's for lunch with Grandma and Aunt Renee. Then we picked up Peter and headed home for a nap. I have to say that Esther's a pretty fun choice for someone to take on a girls' day out!
