So I went into his room and saw that he had dragged out the cart from behind his bed, and put the bear in it to push around...
Like any good game, this does not stay limited to his room. Oompa Loomp clearly would have to go on a tour of the whole apartment.
This little game went on for about 30 minutes. Just Liam pushing around this cart over and over and over again. From time to time he would stop to pick up some more bears or take some out, but Oompa was always in there as the head of the bears.
I am actually pretty happy that he picked this bear as his favorite, it is a pretty cute bear. I think that it is one my mother gave him. Most of the bears in his room are quite nice, but there are one or two that I think are pretty ugly looking and I would not really like to see them carried all over the place. I have heard stories from friends with kids that are annoyed when their kid chooses the rattiest most gaudily coloured monstrosity from the pile of toys and won't go anyplace without it. Oompa Loompa is a nice bear and I am happy to bring him along on any adventures we have. Liam's other favorite "bring along" toys are some trucks and buckets. All OK by me.

I still have my bear from my childhood. He has lost most of his fur. His name was "Teddy".
He still sleeps on the bed with Curious George.

I had a stuffed Jawa that my aunt bought me when they found out how star wars crazy I was. his hand squeeked when you pressed it.
I hope he is still at my mother's.
This reminds me of a time in Vanier when I pushed Mike Ponter around in a shopping cart.
I believe it was noted for prosperity in the porter's log.
As a side note, I bought a nice winter scarf yesterday. To my surprise, it was made in Germany.
I hope my new German scarf is as good as all the other German things I've bought...black forest ham, black forest cake, beer, sausage, and saurkraut.
Dave - you should wear the scarf like a sumo diaper instead.
Of course your scarf will be of tremendous quality. It will have been overseen by the German ministry of scarves and probably had to pass the scarf standards office.
I think I missed the Ponter in a cart incident. I wonder if we could get a hold of those porters logs and read through them for fun. I would love to read everything for the years when Paul Pace and Jun Yee were in rez.
