Wardrobe Update!!!

So... when mom got back from her stay in the hospital, she came back to this mass pile on her doorstep.

 

This was like, 5 packages guys!!!

All just piled up waiting there for poor old drugged mom to try and walk over. She was super drugged and she had a happy meal according to Korick. I still haven't found what she did with her toy yet. Grandma brought in the hoard for her and mom got to use a pair of scissors for the first time in several months. It was all gifties from our cousins in Ireland. And most of them where for ME!!!

If you are easily sick at the sight of pink, skip this post. There is A LOT of it. Like a lot a lot. Like OMG a lot! Some mom had bought because she couldn't find them in the states but most of them our cousins picked out. You've been warned.

 This first cute number is my very own set of pajamas! They came with matching slippers and a bow! Since mama has been in her pjs so much, Korick and I have been living in ours too! Well... I don't know if Korick really counts because he's almost always in pajamas. Mama says it's cause he smells familure but I don't know. He smells like lavender fabric softener to me!

 You may have noticed the ear peaking over the pillow in the last picture. That's one of our many fox friends. His name is Pancake and he's so adorable! He wonderfully floppy!

 Next is an outfit mama bought for me! It's a Halloween Hello Kitty outfit!!! Mama says I will need a bow to match but... HELLO KITTY!!! And spiders!!! AND HALLOWEEN!!!

 This is a wonderfully glittery white tip with puffy princess sleeves and pink pants. You can't tell in the picture but, you can see my panties through them!!! I can't go camando either! Mama says that she has some new undies coming that will work better for my lighter clothes.

 To break up the pink, here's Korick in his new outfit! Mama has hunted for years for an outfit that would match the character Daddy named him after. She had to order it from the Build-A-Bear site in Europe but she finally got it! Except for the boots, we got those here. The HUGS text is embroidered on and mama said she might take it off for him.

 Next is a Hellow Kitty top! She's a geek! The skirt I've had and since I don't own all but 1 pair of pants (thank you again Aunty!!!) The next several photos will have the same skirt since showing my panties is not cool. At all!!! Nope nope nope!

 Cheer-leading Hello Kitty top!

 Pretty pink heart hoodie with super cute bow but NO EAR HOLES!!! Mama says might ears may never find a hoodie that will fit them. Oh well!

Pink camo hoodie!

 Pretty purple outfit!!! You can't see it, but it has a really cute pink belt!

 Pretty pink sweeter Aunty had made for me! AND I HAVE SUNGLASSES NOW!!! AND THEY ARE PINK!!!

 This is a really cute bunny sleeper Aunty had ordered for me but... it's a little big. Mama is going to see if she can alter it once her hand feels better... and Grandma gives back her sewing machine. Seriousely guys, she hid Mom's sewing machine! Who does that!?!

 I got a few goodies in the package too! the bear case is the case for my glasses. The Hello Kitty wand thing was full of candy. The turtle is darling but we're not sure where to put him yet! Mama tried to put him on the medication bag she had to carry with her for a few days, but he got caught on all the things so that was a no go.

 AND I got this super cute Hello Kitty smallfry!!! She has a tan!

She came with a cute little bikini too and a hoodie that matches Koricks. We didn't get a picture of that one though.

If you made it this far, you survived the sea of PINK!!! I now Mama posted earlier, but she hasn't always been sleeping so good. So I've gotten to watch some really weird cartoons at night/wee hours of morning. I've also discovered infomercials! Not necessarily a good thing but, entertaining none the less.
 Thank you for reading guys!

Updates from Sakura Bunny

 

Haha! You hadn't heard the last from me! Mom's not been feeling all that well lately, so I'm giving an update so she can rest. Aren't I the sweetest?!

Korick recently ordered himself scrubs and is trying to pass himself off as a doctor. The past few days he's been going to work with Mom. He said she was needing 24 care. I think he was making stuff up to go back to work with her. Either way, the people in Mom's office are SUPER nice to him when he goes and always excited to see him. Last week, they even gave him his own desk to work at!

He's still trying to pass off as a doctor. One of the doctors Mom works with said that he might be a little short to work in the OR. Another nurse that works with the people that will be fixing Mom said that even though he has scrubs, doesn't mean his medical license if valid to work in the OR with them. But she did say he can stay with her until she goes into surgery and for course stay with her over night. He's still trying to convince them he can assist in the procedure. I don't buy it. I don't think playing Doctor X: Vampire Edition qualifies as medical schooling.

He has been doing a super job of helping Mom though and I guess that's what's important. Even if it's just by bringing a smile to her face... and often times to others.

On Friday, he was a Jedi. He almost got stolen twice for his cuteness.

So while Korick has been busy with Mom, I've been helping her pick out comfy cuddly things. My Favorite is this super soft and super cuddly blanket. It's light weight and just dreamy to snuggle with.

Luna B agrees. She's been sleeping on it every chance she gets no matter where it is!

I also suggest Mom get some new jammies since the ones grandma promised to make are still not even cut yet. We found these awesome black cat ones and some really cute Hello Kitty ankle socks! Of course they are Halloween themed... but that didn't seem to phase Mom to much.

The pink slippers are the newest purchase. The nurse Mom had talked with the other day had suggested bringing a pair since Mom will be sleeping over at the hospital. We'd found this super cool pair of Monster High slippers but... they where out of Mom's size. We tried a couple different stores but didn't have any luck. We found this pink pair that are really soft and comfortable AND they have bottoms with grips so Mom won't slip and hurt herself. This was a slipper feature Grandma was adimate about seeing as how mom has a bad track record with hurting herself.

Yesterday we went out with Daddy. We got ramon noodles and Mom curled up and slept when she got to his house. There was some much needed cuddle time with the 4 of us (Simba kitty curled up with us on the bed and Daddy was trying to find where he could fit! XD) Mama lost her hoodie recently and she was threatening to steal one of Daddy's. He said he had the perfect one for her to keep forever since he couldn't wear it.

ISN'T IT AWESOME!!! It actually goes with mine and Korick's travel bag!

That really about wraps it up for what's been going on. This week might be high stress for Mama. She actually asked me if I wanted to come with her to work tomorrow! Of course I said yes! I will try and explore and get some pictures. Korick says that while it's a lot of fun to go to work with Mom, we're there to do a job. Most of the time it's to take care of Mom, but sometimes it's to make others smile too. I'm a little nervous because that's a lot of responsibility. Korick's tried to teach me what he knows but... well we will see. I still have to decide what to wear!!!

Adventures of Sakura Bunny

*tap tap, tap tap* is this thing on?

Hello interwebs! My name is Sakura Bunny. I'm miss Ania's newest Build-a-Bear. Mama hasn't been feeling well lately, so I decided to post about an adventure I had a couple weekends ago! You know, just to help Mama out since she's been so down lately. :)

A couple weekends ago Mama's Aunty Em was visiting. Now they haven't seen each other in a REALLY long time, so Mama had planned an adventure for the 3 of us in Seattle! So we got up super early and got ready for our adventure. Mama want to get up to the city while it was still waking up. So we packed and got ready for the day.

I got to hang out in Mama's All Things Lavender bag.

 Again it was really early!!! Mama tried to get Korick to come too, but he did not want to leave the bed! He's such an old man sometimes!!! XD

 We where dropped off in Tukwilla at the light rail station. Mama said it was her favorite way to travel to the city and Aunty Em hadn't ridden on it ever!

I got to sit on Aunty Em's lap the whole way to Seattle. ^_^ It was really exciting!!! The train moves so fast and in some places is up over the freeway! We where up above the cars!

When we got to the city, it was so quite and everything was so tall! So I took pictures of the buildings as we wandered down to the market.

This is Pike Place Market. Mama said that later in the day, it would be packed with people! But while we where there, it was quite and there where a lot of yummy smells coming from all over. It was so cool!

This is the famous throwing fish stand.  When we came back later in the day, it was so busy we couldn't get close. I wanted to get my picture taken with the guys (they where cute!!!) but I was to shy.

This is the very first Starbucks ever in the world. Mama told us that she had something way better planned for breakfast then coffee. It's 8am and the line was already out the door!

While I didn't get a picture of the sign, this place is called Piroshki Piroshki! It had a line too, but it was moving quickly and note down the block like Starbucks. It smelled SO GOOD in here! Mama also said that her hero Anthony Bourdain had been here a few years back. So she had to stop to drool over his pictures there.

Don't they look yummy!!! We got once that had raisins and cinnomin and a little orange pill in it. It was amazing!!! All made by hand right in front of us! Aunty Em got one that was stuffed with mushrooms and cheese and onion. Also yummy! Mama loves good food made fresh like this so she was all giggley. I can understand why!

We stopped for a moment to eat and watched the cheese place make cheese Aunty Em said that her dad worked for a cheese company so she had learned a lot about cheese from him. Mama only remembers a little of him, but she did remember how much he loved good cheese.

We started wondering through the market again. We found this giant squid! I wanted to climb on top of him, but Mama said I couldn't make a scene. Plus he was super high up in the air.

 So I settled for getting my picture taken with Big Foot. He was a very gentle giant. :)

 We where in Seattle so early, many places in the market where still closed. This is one of Mama's favorite stores. It smelled so good and the doors weren't even open yet. She promised to come back later.

We then started to walk back up towards the mall where we got off the light rail. Mama told us she had booked a special tour for us to take. We where going to ride a duck!!!

Well... not a real duck. It was this boat that was also a vehicle. This was just the ticket booth. We where still early for our tour, but we picked up our tickets anyway. People where lining up early and buying tickets. Mama had ordered ours online a couple nights before.

We got quakers!!! It's a whistle that makes duck noises!!! Mama quickly took it back after this because Aunty Em and I where running around and making noise. Mama said she needed coffee before that kind of merriment. We'd been up forever so we both agreed with her.

So I got a passion sweet tea lemonaid. It was very good. It really helped perked me up.

Just then the boat pulled up! We got super excited and ran to the front of the line to board.

 The stairs where very narrow. It was really scary because the whole boat moved too when you took a step on those stairs. I ducked into mama's bag. She could do the scary walking up the stairs. I was not coming out until we where safely seated!!!

 This is our captain. He's name was Captain Jacked Up. He was super cute!!! SUPER SUPER CUTE!!! Aunty Em and Mama where to busy making eyes at him.

We where off!!! To the Star Wars theme!!! The other boats we'd seen take off had lame songs that where way old, but we got Star Wars!!! STAR WARS!!! Captain Jack's hat was sparkley too. Did I mention he was super cute?

This is one of those weird things that's photographed all the time. It's a car wash though and the sign spins. Mama said that she use to drive by it every day on her way to work back when she took the bus.

This was on the Aurora Bridge. Way way way in the distance, Mama said you could see Bellevue, another big city. Mama said that her and Daddy use to live over there. Mama gave Aunty Em her version of the tour, but she wouldn't let me listen because she said it wasn't G rated.

So I pouted and looked out the side of the boat.

This was a land and sea tour. This is the boat ramp to lake Union. I'd never been in a boat on water before!!! I was worried we where going to squish the car that was getting their boat into the water!

Charging forward into the lake! Captain Jack loved to switch hats!

OMGOMGOMG!!! The water was so close!!!

 So so close!!!

 It was SeaFair weekend. A lot of people where on boats in the water. Mama said SeaFair was happening on a different lake on the other side of the city. We where going to avoid that side because of the crowds.

 We could see a lot of the skyline of the city! We could even see the Space Needle!

This is Gas Works Park. It's an old factory that they kept part of as an art piece. A lot of people where out there to enjoy the sunshine. We have had a summer this year which Mama said was really rare for Washington state.

The Aurora Bridge. We'd drive over this!

There where a lot of house boats around the lake. This one I liked because it had such a cute little porch.

This was the Sculpture Park. The silver tree in the picture is made of metal! Captain Jack said to not stand by it during a lightening storm.

Once we got back into the city, the tour went pretty fast so I wasn't able to get many pictures. Aunty Em was to busy playing on her whistle and Mama was to busy laughing at her. Mama about passed out from laughing. It was really kind of funny.

When we got off the boat, I promised myself I'd get this picture! Isn't he cute!!! He was so nice to take this with me! He even gave me a hug after! Mama was super excited too. She was a little upset he wasn't in his Indiana Jones hat though... but she did threaten to steal it from him... >_>

After the tour, we wandered back around the city and to Pike Place. It was really busy now, so I hid in the bag. Mama bought a lot of stuff! The bag I was in is from Grandma's favorite lavender shop. So we had to stop by to restock Grandma's stash. She was going on a trip with Aunty Em and Mama wanted to make sure she had travel sized versions of her favorite products.

We even stopped at the International District to pick up some treats for Daddy. We bought so many things! I've never shopped so much before!!! We... except for at Build a Bear

Once we'd finished all our shopping, we got back on the light rail train. I was really tired. Mama let me sit by the window again. We where up over part of the city here. It was really cool.

Daddy picked us up and took us home. It was a super fun day, but really long. There was lots of yummy food and cute boys! So many cool things to see! I'm hoping we go on another adventure soon. Though it won't be as much fun without Aunty Em.
