Rachele Watkins-Week 3- Appleton, Wi

Well, I must start off by saying that Stanley and I had an amazing week together, and I'm sad to see him go.  We laughed. We cried. We worked. We Cheered on the Packers.  Well, I'll start at the beginning...

So Stanley's first day here, he arrived just in time to run to Kinko's/Fed Ex Office before we headed into work.  He was very nervous about his lamination, but I assured him that it was for the best.

He laid down very still in the machine and it was over within seconds!  And he was brand new!  He loved how new and shiny he looked...I could barely pull him away from the car mirror.

Then we were off to work!  We arrived a little bit early and Stanley wanted to know what it was like to sit in the 'bosses' chair, so he tried that out.

It was time to get ready for work, so Stanley put on his new work outfit.  He was very excited that we got to match :)

He jumped right into working. In fact he loves working at Build A Bear!  He had so much fun!  He felt like he fit right in! He came back to work the next three days with me!  He made lots of friends!

He helped someone check out.

He helped someone stuff a bear.

Then he talked me into buying him some of his own teddy bears.  He picked out a Star Wars Bear, Bumble (from Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer) and a plain brown teddy :)

He wanted  a picture with all three of his bears:

I turned my back for a minute...just a minute and Stanley had gotten himself stuck inside the stuffer!  He was crying...luckily he knew how to swim through stuffing and was able to stay afloat until I could rescue him!

Then he made friends with a guy with a really nice car :)

It was finally time to leave for work, and we were so excited to have the next couple days off and when we walked outside.....Stanley enjoyed his first snowfall!

We got to enjoy TWO Packer Games together!  He loves the Packers.  We even bought him a Clay Matthews jersey :)  He is verrrryyyy excited that the packers will be in the Super Bowl!

We took a picture together in our Packer attire!

Next he wanted to take a goodbye picture with my sister.

He thinks she looks like Taylor Swift and kept referring to her as T-Swift his entire vacation.  

He bought some luggage to keep his clothes and laptop in.

And then he wrote a letter to Whitnie because he's very excited to see her!

P.S. He also helped me get ready for school which starts tomorrow...but out of pure embarrassment he has asked me not to post the pictures of him trying to help me carry my books :)
