a while ago i saw these really big jellycats that you could lie on like a cushion. i am not sure what they are called and am therefore finding it hard to search!

ds2 has recenlty got into all things cuddly (being a v.non cuddly boy from birth this is quite a novelty, him being 3 next month!) ds3 is very cuddly and has comforters which ds2 is now stealing! Anyway im sure he would love a jellycat for snuggling on watching tv or in bed. Does anyone know what im going on about PURLEEEEEEASE!!!!???

Do you mean like this? www.temptationgifts.com/acatalog/info_6456.html Saw some in a shop recently - they can be draped over the arm of an armchair or banister or cuddled by a small child and are about the size of an large cushion. They also have a panda and a highland cow and I think one or two others. Very cute!
I've never done a link before so I hope it works.

Oh, just realised I could have made my link look much more streamlined...

We have a slightly smaller one. Not big enough for a 3-yo to snuggle on though. It's the panda called Truffles which they also do in the large size. I did see the bigger ones while out xmas shopping last week. They looked lovely and snuggly. Spotted them in one of those fancy gift shops that sell nice cards so maybe you could investigate if you have anything like that near you - although bound to be cheaper online I think.
With all the buggies you keep buying your DP should be delighted that it ONLY costs £30!!!

You are so buggy bad! Tried to persuade DP to buy carrielou's pop but pink isn't really the right colour. I'll see what I get in my stocking!
