My dinosaur obsession continues! Recently I created a tiny T. Rex, which I think works great as a stocking stuffer or a quick way of getting rid of an extra bit of yarn and stuffing.
If you've made amigurumi before, this pattern should be pretty simple. Be sure to put stuffing in as you go.

Invisible decrease (invdec)
