This is sooo long overdue and has to be sent out to my sister who had her little fella April 6th!! Both my sisters have had babies this year but I'm not joining them!! I have 3 'out of the nest' and 2 getting closer to spreading their wings!! The ribbon I used was on one of my sister's shower gifts. The button is an old leather one but I turned it because the suede side was fuzzy like a teddy. The image was courtesy of Susiestamper62

This is so cute.. I love the way you used your button. This teddy bear is adorable. I think new babies are so fun. I am with you though. I like to admire them from afar now and snuggle when I get that itch but then give them back to mom... Super job. She will love it.
