Tigger is really starting to take on some of his very floppy characteristics!<br /><br />Carla, I detest the large collections of cheapo stuffed animals to the point that I am overly generous in giving them away, often. Unless they are a real favorite. But I try to find them a new home before they have a chance to become one!Rebecca Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17359746807137905049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283694011656628916.post-2410893619140204842009-04-25T14:06:00.000-07:002009-04-25T14:06:00.000-07:00My transitional object (a stuffed puppy that you m...My transitional object (a stuffed puppy that you may remember) was a part of a very LONG transition - I am surprised I wasn't mortified! I will think long and hard about the washability of these objects when it is my turn to pick them out!meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17460448285979916411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283694011656628916.post-73419783435761845132009-04-20T06:01:00.000-07:002009-04-20T06:01:00.000-07:00You should invent an elephant with a pacifier on t...You should invent an elephant with a pacifier on the trunk! That is so cute. Roman (my extremely tactile child) had a little lamb and a small satin "blankie". He was hooked to his lovey's until he was about 4 and he decided the new baby needed them. He didn't take a pacifier so I was intentional about having the blankie around when I nursed and it worked great as a comfort object for him later. I stuck his blankie away in his keepsake box. He and Aili both seem to be having a resurgence of favorite loveys now..we have a whole entourage of unwashable, cheaply stitched animals that they've recently collected. Silas didn't take to a "lovey" until he was almost two then he got a soft squishy washible bear as a gift when he was in the hospital ..and it stuck. <br />Big thumbs up in the sleep sucess and sleep training. Its so important for everyones health and happiness...doesn't always work as planned but when it does its wonderful.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14317610661817876605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283694011656628916.post-48698043522442832602009-04-17T10:44:00.000-07:002009-04-17T10:44:00.000-07:00Bob mentioned that Tigger's name is also "Other Ti...Bob mentioned that Tigger's name is also "Other Tigger" so I thought I should mention that. <br /><br />I like the name "Pie-Pie" for a lion, Jody!<br /><br />And, Stacy, that's Elephant's biggest problem- he is SO stinky. Glad to know there is another one year old out there with the same funny habits!Rebecca Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17359746807137905049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283694011656628916.post-71786212071370336672009-04-16T20:55:00.000-07:002009-04-16T20:55:00.000-07:00I love the name "Not Fuzzy Tigger"!
Yep- all of o...I love the name "Not Fuzzy Tigger"!<br /><br />Yep- all of our children have special nighttime blankets and usually a stuffed animal. Ella has her blanket (which used to be mine) and Flopsy, a stuffed pink bunny. But then some nights its a lamb or another stuffed bunny or her baby doll. Isaias has his train blanket and his stuffed lion. Isaac has his blanket (MUCH, MUCH loved- he's *our* tactile child) and about 47 other animals with him in his bed, all very special to him for one reason or another. <br /><br />As for Josiah's elephant? Adelia has a similar thing going on with her baby doll. (And, my requirements are the same as your requirements for such items.) Adelia puts herself to sleep by sucking (and now, with teeth- CHEWING) on her baby dolls hands. So- not only are baby's hands always filthy, but they are also wet and STINKY. I try to wash that baby as often as I can (which doesn't amount to much washing, when it comes right down to it).Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13485518521402606014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283694011656628916.post-25876876230470482872009-04-16T16:47:00.000-07:002009-04-16T16:47:00.000-07:00"Not Fuzzy Tiger"...I love it!
