My little Linus...


Laila has a favorite blankie...guess which one it is?

It's so dingy that it has been mistaken for an old towel. I prefer to call it 'well-loved'.


I bought the one on the right as a substitute so that the 'well-loved' blankie could get a much needed washing. I have tried this tactic before, but the blanket I bought was just the same material, not the same color. It didn't go well.
She seemed to like this new blanket, so I grabbed the 'well-loved' and threw it in the wash.

Big mistake! It really doesn't look like a huge tragedy from this side....

but, here is my poor baby's face! She just kept crying for her "bankie".

She was mad when she saw I was taking pictures, she ran over to hit me!
Then, back to the door to the laundry room to beg for her blankie some more.
Every time I had to open the door to the laundry room the frenzy would start up again, so I ended up drying it alone to speed up the process.

She did carry around the new one in it's place while her 'well-loved' was in the wash. I guess she will suffer a substitute rather than have no blankie at all.

Some of you may recall that Nathan had a special blanket as well.
I guess it runs in the family!
