As part of their birthday presents from Grandma & Grandpa Janssen, we met up at the mall in Burlington & went to Bear Essentials (very similar to build-a-bear workshop – something Rob has wanted to do for YEARS and by association, so have the twins).
Meet Stacy Jo, Pete & Ricky Raccoon (though he goes by Rick). You wouldn’t believe how the boys take care of their new guys. Of course, we all know Jaclyn was made to be a mommy, but it was Rob & Tom who first set out to find blankets for their guys to have while they napped while they were away at school. And we’ve all been sushed by Tom when Pete has turned in for the night while we’re still getting clothes & backpacks situated for the next morning.
