Missing in Action

Caroline's favorite toy and dear friend, "bug", is missing. She and I ventured out last Saturday to a children's consignment store in town, and mommy made the mistake of letting her play with bug in the stroller while in the store. I'm pretty sure that bug went overboard without my noticing. I called the store to see if by chance someone turned her in, but she was not in their lost and found. The store clerk did say though, "I hope we didn't think it was ours and shrink wrap it!" Agh! After Caroline's appointment at the pediatrician this afternoon, Zack dropped me by the store to look. I scoured all the shelves ready to pay whatever ransom necessary to get bug back! But, she was no where to be found. Sniff, sniff. She really does have sentimental value. Caroline loved her and lit up whenever she saw her and played with her. I looked in Babies-R-Us for a replacement but they didn't have it either. I'm searching the internet. Rest in peace, bug. We'll miss you.
Here I am with my dear friend. If anyone sees her around, please tell my Mommy!

Aww missing her favorite toy makes me so sad. It's amazing the random things they attach themselves to and you are frantic when you can't find them. I sure hope you can find a replacement soon. Best of luck!

That looks like a "Carters" bug...Did you check carters.com or the Carter's store? Just a thought

You don't know me, but I follow your blog because my daughter also has a hemangioma! If you haven't found the bug yet, go to amazon and search "carters pink crinkle bug". There is ONE left! For future reference, they call it "Carter's Child of Mine Car Seat Toy ~ Pink Crinkle Bug".
