As for Cort, he has his blankie. Pierce is a little more fickle with his security items. When he was 2 1/2, it was a small green squeaky frog. Then when he was 3 1/2, a stuffed Baby Jaguar. At 4 1/2, he switched to a small stuffed Mario. You never know what it'll be next.
How about you or your kids, reader? Any special stuffed animals around?
How cute is that picture!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter carried around a Victorian rag doll that my Granny A made her until it fell apart. I cherish the first teddy bears 3M sent me from Scotland before we were married.
I have a 27-year-old who still has her blankie tucked away somewhere in her apartment! It's pretty ratty, but when she was little it helped her through many a thunderstorm!
ReplyDeleteWhat a precious photo.
ReplyDeleteGrowing up, I carried my Thumbelina doll everywhere. I still have her!
Oh Lisa this is so cute. My girls each had a stuffed toy M had a doll named Mary Anne and K had a Big Bird they still have them tucked away somewhere maybe waiting for my Grandchildren:) B
ReplyDeleteJDaniel has a bear name Ted. He travels with us on vacation and has to be in bed at night.
ReplyDeleteHow about you, Baby Girl? What was your favorite over the years?..:)JP
ReplyDeleteNeither one of mine had a stuff animals or blanket. They usually had a car or truck in there .
ReplyDeleteSweetest photo! There's other love like that.
ReplyDeleteThat picture is adoreable Lisa.
ReplyDeleteMy Daughter is grown now but I don't remember her really liking any stuffed animal excep a Winnie The Poo bear.
Such a cute photo. My son has a little blanket with a doggie head. That thing goes everywhere with us. I am deathly afraid of losing it so he gets included in the head count whenever we go/leave anywhere.
ReplyDeleteHow cute! Both of my kids have security blankets and they don't put them down!
ReplyDeleteThat picture is too cute!
ReplyDeleteDylan never had a lovey, took a pacifier, or sucked his thumb. Lexie found a tiny stuffed bunny when she was 6 months old. She crawled over to her toy box, took it out, and never let it go! BunBun is currently in her backpack at school! Lily is a thumbsucker, but no lovey or blankie.
Oh that happy little grin just warms my heart!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute photo!
ReplyDeleteI still have a stuffed Garfield that my parents gave me when I had my wisdom teeth cut out. I was 19. Oh, well, I still like it. :-)
It's so cool when they have that one thing. T had blankets, B had this puppy, G (my hoarder) has a bed FULL of stuffed animals that he loves in random rotation.
ReplyDeletehe's adorable. i hope he keeps it forever (or you keep it for him until he's grown and he'll take it back). :)
ReplyDeletei have a teddy bear with a music box in it that i've had since infancy.
That picture of Reid is so precious! When Amy was little she had a stuffed black and white spotted cow pull-toy she named Dot. Dot went everywhere, and her little wooden wheels are very well worn:)
ReplyDeletePrecious boy!! My baby, Michael, was a blankie boy. Sometimes he carried around two at a time. I miss those days. Sigh. Enjoy, Lisa.
ReplyDeleteMy kids never really picked up any security items, My grandchildren have though.
ReplyDeleteMy seven-year-old has a stuffed puppy that she's always been attached to, but my four-year-old...well, she's more like Pierce.
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable picture!
Cute picture of Reid with his little sheep.
ReplyDeleteSuch a handsome little dude!
ReplyDeleteHunter, for example here, likes her "animals" but always wants a rough spot to rub. Don't ask me!! :)
That is so cute. Andy's change - but he always has to have A toy. Now it is legos.
ReplyDeleteThat sheep picture is so cute!
ReplyDeleteMica had a green silky blanket when he was baby. Now he could sleep without anything. He has a stuffed moose, a peacock puppet (He loved peacocks for awhile!) and a blue bunny that he got from preschool.
Isaak has a lot of stuffed animal dogs. His most secure thing was his glow worm that he no longer has to have.
Blankies for both kids. And LOTS of 'em! Although neither has them anymore--even though I thought they'd never give them up.
ReplyDeleteCort looks so adorable with his little lamb!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter had so many different snuggly things...one had an eye fall out, so we bought a second exact bunny. Haahahhaaaa what we do for comforts.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great photo and story!
ReplyDeleteBen has two rabbits.. Nibbles and Bob.. He sleeps with them everynight.
ReplyDeleteI had four children and only one had a bear. I love these stuffed animals that are loved.. All their fur has been rubbed off and their stuffing has broken down to make the stuffed animal limp.. Such love these children have for their pals..
ta ta for now from Iowa:)
not really for me. i tried but nope. my daughter's just loved their real cats and didn't need very many stuffed toys. They are still that way today. [real animals instead of stuffed]
ReplyDeleteHe is a little gem!
ReplyDeleteYou'd think with 11 kids, someone would have had a special security animal or blanket, but none of my kids did. They had stuffed animals and blankets, but nothing that became super special to them.
ReplyDeleteMy son had an Alvin from the chipmunks. I still have it after 33 years! That was way before the movies ever came out.
