When Rhett arrived, I half-heartedly pushed the binky. It was out of habit and without hope. To my surprise it took. He was officially a boy with a binky.
Binky + Boy = Love.
So I declared it…
Ryan had a teddy.
Reid had a blanket.
Rhett had a binky.
All was right with the world. I could keep up with three things. One special item for each boy. No problem.
And then Rhett decided that one binky just wasn’t enough. If more was better than four was best.
FOUR B’S!
So, four B’s it was. They were small. I could slip them into my purse or in a corner of the diaper bag.
Then he decided he needed animals to take a nap.
Not just one animal, but MANY animals.
Alright, animals. Animals we have. Animals he loves.
And then he decided he needed blankets.
Not just one blanket, but MANY blankets.
Alright, blankets we have. Blankets he loves.
The crib was crowded.
Crowded with love.
*Rewind*
One of these things is not like the other.
One of these things just doesn’t belong…
Oh, that is Rhett’s “hot dog”.
It is on the A-list of loveys.
Who can fall asleep without a hot dog?
Yep, Rhett’s “hot dog” is actually Shigella the microbe that causes a stomach ache.
Maybe Rhett’s family has attended one too many health profession vendor fairs…
Lots and Lots of Lovey’s 🙂
That Shigella has very sad eyes. 🙁
Ha ha ha ha…
I have the polar opposite child. Will cannot sleep unless EVERYTHING gets thrown out – socks off his feet included.
ROTFL! That was so funny! Rhett also frequently refers to this as the “hot dog with cheese,” and you can see why!
That is so cute! My daughter was the one who had a crib full of stuff. She’s 15 and still keeps her bed loaded down.
ok. i KNOW i commented on this before… but it disappeared.
what i SAID was: i think rhett is actually plotting a great escape. every time he adds something to his bed requirements, it stacks just a leeeeetle bit higher….
and then? he’ll climb out.
it’s a conspiracy!!!!!
Holly..Shigella?
I wonder if they make a softie of MRSA?
ewwww.
That is the weirdest stuffed thingy I’ve ever seen. My first thought was ameoba! Thanks for making me laugh again.
Hmm. Driven to excess? Maybe it’s just a case of the more, the merrier. 🙂
Those microbe toys are crazy, huh?!
Oh, doctor dad. You know? My bloglines is really messed up & said you hadn't posted. I clicked thru on a hunch. I'm wondering how many posts I missed….
Could be worse! Could be a herpes “lovey”!
