When Minnesota couple Chris and Aimee Knutson brought home their newborn son, they wanted to mark the occasion with more than just photos. So they created this super sweet stop-motion video called "Teddy Bear Meets Best Friend." As the title suggests, the clip follows a stuffed bear eager to meet and welcome his newest buddy home. And the whole thing is so cute, I just couldn't resist sharing it. Take a look after the jump!

The 96-second clip (which reportedly took about 60 to 80 hours to complete!) starts off with the teddy bear becoming overjoyed after discovering a positive pregnancy test in the bathroom. It then goes on to follow the stuffed animal's growing excitement in the ensuing months, as he sees the sonogram for the first time and watches as the crib gets built. Finally, the Knutsons (whose faces are never actually shown in the clip) come home with their baby boy, Henry, and the two get to meet at last. EEP, so cute!
"We made it just for Henry and I was a little nervous about posting it at all," Knutson told the St. Paul Pioneer Press. "But I couldn't help it because I was pretty proud of it and wanted others to see it. Surprisingly, people like it." They definitely do! The video has already gotten over 180,000 views on YouTube.
I LOVE this video! It's such an adorable and special way to commemorate your baby's homecoming. Watch it here. It's guaranteed to melt your heart!
