What a glorious morning! I was just sitting on my porch, thinking about life, when these adorable creatures came and visited me! There were four of them-- Larry, Harry, Barry, and Henrietta. It's so nice making new friends! 🐾💕 #newfriendsmade #kittenlife #gloriousmorning #everydayisanadventure #lifeofaplaidbear #happyday😊 #adorbs❤️ #plaidoakmascot #plaidoakoutfitters

I've decided to take on a fun project since I've been stuck at home so much lately. This is going to be the snazzy new (but old) very yellow headboard for Humans number 3 and 4. Do you think they'll like it? 🐻💕 . . .

Do you think this tent is big enough for me? I was thinking of putting the sofa over there by the window.

It's kind of cloudy today-- maybe I'll just stay in bed. It's not like I have to be anywhere. 😂

I'm thankful for my current and beautiful surroundings, but I need to get a little more creative with ways to entertain myself.
Turning this empty planter into a swing was a fail. It was not nearly as exciting as I had imagined it would be.

I didn't tip-toe through the tulips yesterday, but I did hang out with them for a little while. 🌷

I'm beary thankful for the Springtime right now. I'll focus on that for now, instead of the news and the current world events. But I'll never stop praying. 💕

Since I've been stuck at home for a few weeks now, I've decided to learn some new things.
Human#3 told me that she would teach me how to play the piano, so I'm really looking forward to that. I'm also learning to speak Scottish Gaelic with a few of my Humans. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ❤️ What have you been doing during these very strange times? .

My Humans drove me down to Florida last week, but we didn't do anything fun. I don't understand why. The weather was beautiful, but I just sat either in the hotel or the car the whole week. But after overhearing some of their conversations, I think they might have been visiting one of the Grandhumans who wasn't feeling well, so I won't give them a hard time about it. 😔 .

Um. My head is stuck I think. I hope my Humans notice and help me pretty soon. I'm getting hungry. I need a snack.

Today is my Birthday! I am one year old now.🎈 My Humans gave me this strange canvas that has bears literally everywhere! I like it, but it's also a little psychedelic if you ask me. 😎

My first snow of the year! I had so much fun watching it come down, making snow angels, and then sitting by the fireplace with a warm drink while watching Oliver Twist in BBC. Yesterday was a good day.

It's the first day of the week (happy Sabbath!), and the first day of the month (happy December!). This month will also complete the first year of my existence (happy birthday- pretty soon- to me!) And this moose thinks that's amusing for some reason. 🤨

A package came in the mail today, and guess who it was addressed to?? ME!! I feel so happy and important!
It came all the way from Honduras from my fine squirrel friend, @traveling.nut 🐿️. Thank you, Marcelo! 😊
Today, I will enjoy eating my new candy, playing with my purple balloon, and working on my coloring page while wearing my new favorite bowtie (which you will often see on me now). All the while, I'll be contemplating on where to stick my new sticker since it needs a special place. 💕

Where have I been you ask? Well... the answer is sad but simple. I have been in a rut.
But, it is now October, and maybe the beautiful Autumn weather (that will eventually come) will snap me out of it, and chipper me back up. 🍁

Human#1 and Human#2 have an Anniversary coming up

Human#1 and Human#2 have an Anniversary coming up soon, so I got them this tree bark coffee mug with their initials carved in a heart. ♥️ Don't worry-- it's not really carved into the mug, it's just printed on it.
I hope they like it. Since the design comes from something in nature, it reminds me of my natural habitat. 🌳🐻 @plaidoak °•°•° #personalizedmugs #treebark #carvedinitials #coffee #tea #trees #adventurestyle #ilovecoffee #latte #chai #plaidoak #plaidoakmascot #plaidoakoutfitters #anniversarygiftsforhim #anniversarygifts #anniversarysurprise #everydayisanadventure #naturalhabitat #outdoorstyle #stuffedanimallife #plushieadventure #plushiesoninstagram #stuffedanimalsofinstagram #happymood #ilovemyhumans
