New Friends

Bridget has never been one to become attached to things. She never took a pacifier...she was always happy with whatever blankie we gave her...never needed that extra special toy to get her to sleep.

Then, all of the sudden she decided that now, at 20 months, she needed 4 things at all times. One afternoon before her nap, she ran to her stuffed animal basket and pulled out a few little friends. I threw them in the crib with her and let her drift off for her catnap...When she woke up she had them all clutched to her chest and hasn't put them down since.

They are her new best friends and they make her so happy. When she sees one she grabs it and smiles so big and hugs it tight. She loves holding all of them at once. We take them upstairs, downstairs, to bed, to the playroom and I let her bring one when we get in the car.

She lines them up on the couch and looks right into their eyes. On one car ride we brought Care Bear along and I saw her making him dance to the radio from the rear view mirror!

I love that she has found some comfort in the these little stuffed animals...I only hope her collection doesn't keep growing. I don't know how many more she can fit in her arms!

Oh, and she got this new shopping cart too. She loves to pretend like she is going to Publix!
