This puppy looks so happy to be running around! This picture is excellent with a great angle and it captures the scene around the pup well.

Today, September 9th, is National Teddy Bear Day!
I know, everyday is something new really these days. I do think that celebrating the adorable and fuzzy teddy bear is a neat idea. Many people have had a special teddy bear in their lives.
Here is my oldest and most loved teddy bear:

I got this bear as a baby and have had him ever since. I love this bear! Well, I guess that is obvious since I still have her. She is so well loved that I do not know what company she is from, but she still has her bows and a little bell in one ear.
Here is my Stieff teddy bear Molly:

Love Steiff! Such quality, craftsmanship, and product choice. The only drawback is the cost, which is why I only have one bear.
Did you have a special teddy bear as a child? Do you collect stuffed bears now?
Addition:
As part of National Teddy Bear Day Boyds Bears launched a new design for their website and is having a contest. If you visit boydsstuff.com you can enter to win a teddy bear. As part of the contest you have to like and comment on their facebook page. I am not sure how they know you are the same person entering on their site and then commenting/liking their FB page, but that is how they designed the contest.
Do not know anything about Boyds Bears? They were quite a popular line at gift shops and Hallmark stores around where I live. I had quite a few of the stuffed bears and their resin figures when I was growing up (I kept them as collectibles). The company has been in business since 1979, and specializes in making high quality teddy bears with unique designs and adorable faces. The company expanded over the years to make home decor, gift items, resin figures, and toys tested for children. Check out their new website to see their current lines, a history of the outfits their bears have worn, how to care for your stuffed bear friends, and much more.
Here are some examples of the Boyd Heirloom line:

Have you ever witnessed a giraffe sleep? I guess they only do so for a very short time everyday.

I cannot imagine how this is comfortable, but I always wondered what they did with their head and neck while sleeping.
I have seen some beautiful cakes, but the level of detail on this rainbow unicorn cake is almost unbelievable!

I wish I knew who the baker was, and what they used to make the main, tail, feathers. If someone make this cake for me I would not want to eat it because it looks so awesome.
Baby seals love to play on the beach, and a wet seal pup with dry sand leads to this adorable situation:
