Because I bit his chocolately little head off, and yummy it was too. I tell you, the torture of having large bowls of melted chocolate in the house when you're trying to eat sensibly...
No, they are all still living in the fridge. Extinction looms tomorrow.
Here's the birthday girl's actual present: Meet Bronty.
I'm not sure about the button eyes - I might take them off and repurpose his nostrils as eyes. With a black dot or something. Plus I'm thinking that I may have mixed him up slightly with a stegasaurus. Should he have (what is the word? spikes? spines? ridges? I am losing my capacity for language. Probably after the world's longest post yesterday) bumpy bits? Mind you, it's not like the brontosaurus ever existed, really, so I figure I'll be ok. But if any three year old is going to know the difference, it will be his new owner.
Remember the film?
He's very cute! Love the fabric choice. I'd definitely take the eyes off - like you I think the nostril position is better for the eyes.

I like it! I have a just three year old who is obsessed with rabbits so I know exactly the risks of actually asking them what they want. We have an entire warren of rabbit soft toys and egg cups and ornaments and still the demand is not quenched!

Repeat after me: "Oh, what kind of a dinosaur is it? It's one just newly discovered, in honor of your birthday, and it needs a name -- what would you like to call it?"

I don't know where I've been all week but have managed to miss out on all of your dinosaur action - love those choccie ones - what dedication, but my fave is the softie - he's great, bet he went down a storm yesterday.
