Meet Melvin

When the boys were born, they each got a special stuffed animal from us.  A little over a week ago, the boys put together some money they had been given (thanks Lila and Chris!) and bought Darya her very own special stuffie.  They eagerly rummaged through the shelves at Toys R Us in search of the right one. Just as hope was almost lost, Melvin was discovered on an end cap just around the corner. They knew he was the one!  With those soul-piercing eyes and super-soft fuzzy "fur" it was a match!  Without further ado, here are the boys with their special stuffies and Melvin who awaits his little girl!:

  4. nicole - he came with that name on his tag - too funny! I think "Ellie" is more appropriate, but we'll let Darya decide :-). Oh, and my mom is going to be making Darya her very own "Grandma Charlene" blankie. All her kids and grandkids have loved them. When I get it from her, I'll be sure to post it!
