The adventures of Manni Bear with Super Sarah and her wardrobe changes

Sarah likes to be fair with her stuffed animals. She rotates who her 'favourite' is which is very magnanimous of her, really. One of her most favourite, though, is Manni Bear. He's a Gund and was given to her by my cousin Johnnie and his wife Mary. He has the most expressive face. He goes everywhere with Sarah and she puts him in the most interesting situations. Luckily he seems to be a 'go with the flow' kind of fellow.
There's the Ikea toy container. Sarah likes to climb in there with her Manni Bear. 
We tied a towel to one of the toy containers in it's collapsed state and that made for some great fun for both Manni and Sarah. She took him on a hayride.
Sarah and Manni used the same toy container as a flying saucer. 
Manni bear can sometime be seen on the potty. One of Sarah's (and Manni's) favourite books is a 'row row row your boat'. Here's a picture of Manni taking a moment with his favourite book.
One of Sarah's other favourite things is her green blankie (she pronounces it banky). 

She plays the part of 'Super Sarah' with her blankie - it must give her extra special powers.

Sarah has become more and more involved in the decision making process with regards to what clothes she wears and how these days. It makes for some interesting and prolonged discussions ('you have to wear pants when you go outside', etc...).
.
One of her favourite get-ups is wearing her rubber boots without pants.
She's recently become quite attached to her sunglasses (she calls them sunglass).
I went shopping on Saturday at the second hand toy and clothing sale near here. I went alone, which was a good idea. It was held in an Elementary School gym and it was packed to the rafters with tables of clothes and toys. I can't imagine being able to get anything accomplished with Sarah along for the ride. Above is a picture of Sarah with her new (to her) boots and her sunnies.
Here's Sarah posing with her new (to her) shoes, and hat. Of course - no pants. Seeing a picture of her like this makes you realise just how skinny her legs are. Little miss chicken legs!

Below are a series of pictures I took of Sarah a couple of weeks ago with a winter sweater on. I thought they were cute enough to share.
