my DT got build a bear vouchers for their birthday so we want along and got them a bear each

while I was there I saw a my little pony build a bear and saw a sully - from monsters inc - being advertised

I'm 32 and not at all girlie - would I be unreasonable to get me one for my bedroom? I have the money so DT wouldn't go without?
my birthday is 6 months away so a long time to wait for a present

I have a blush and each year gets new Children in need clothes. I don't see why the DDs should get all the fun.

I was in a store a few weeks, I'm not one for cuddly toys but the My Little Pony is absolutely gorgeous.

The Sully looks slightly scary (why has a nice one never been released?) but the my little ponies are lovely Wink

Get one!

I have a lovely limited edition Christmas one - a little reindeer that comes out every year. DP bought me her because I kept saying I'd love one but couldn't justify it when I was a broke student!

Oh god I have the link opened in another page, £19 for a basic pony, I want rainbow dash, and would need two pairs if skates at £5 each, and and and....perhaps I can convince grandma to buy it for 'dd' and then keep it safely away from sticky little fingures


I may have all the Mr potato head star wars figures they did, Darth Vader, r2d2 and a clone trooper... They sit up on a shelf where the madthings can't reach them!

Yabu, it is a teddy, you are an adult.

I bought a build a brear for my (child) sister, she wasn't with me it was a supprise present but they made me kiss the heart before I put it in the bear, I was all alone, in my lunch break but there was lots of kids around so I had to kiss the fabric heart whilst the bear lady cheerfully said "kiss the heart and fill your bear with love" I muttered "it's not my bear" and left as fast as possible.

YANBU if if makes you happy then do it. Life is too short.

I'm obsessed with Woolly Mammoths, in the USA they do 'Build A Dino'. My lovely DH bought me a Mammoth and Baby and they live on our bed. 'Malcolm' the mammoth makes me smile whenever I see him.

DD3 has Rainbow Dash. If Applejack is coming out, I may need to buy it to keep Rainbow Dash company (fond memories of Applejack being my first MLP aged 5).

It's DD2's birthday in a month, and she wants a load of build a bear clothes. I have to confess to being a little bit excited about choosing the outfits with her. I clearly don't get out enough.
