So back in November when she asked if I had any special outfits I had for Nolan, I wasn't surprised at all. You have no idea how many outfits we had already bought for him. She asked me to send her my favorite outfit because she had something special in mind. But, I didn't have the heart or strength to pull out Nolan's tote and go through his outfits, I knew it would put me in a dark place.
While we were on the cruise, my best friend Valorie came over and went through his outfits. I told her to pick any of the anchor onsies or outfits because those were ALL my favorites. So she did just that and sent it to Amy.
Look what came in the mail this week....
Ironically enough, the outfit she used to make this bear is the very first outfit we bought for Nolan. We got it from Babies R Us just a few hours after we found out he was a boy. Perfect outfit, perfect baby, perfect friend in this journey with me that knows exactly what touches a mommy's heart that lost their baby. Thank you Amy.

It is so beautiful! What a great idea, and so thoughtful. I love that you can hold and love on this bear and be reminded of Nolan!
That is so adorable! I had a quilt made with my dad's Hawaiian shirts after he passed. I love the idea of a Teddy bear. Your friend could start a business on etsy. Let us know if she does.
It is perfect! I agree with Bree, she can start a buisness doing this. I would definitly pay to have one done for Jasper.
