I'll admit it - I used to sleep with a teddy bear - in addition to the Grandma Quilt I have already talked about. Over the years I have actually had a few different bears, and I still have a few of them, although they no longer sleep with me. One my hubby gave me, and others were adopted at different times for different reasons.
The Munchkin currently has a whole crew that share his crib - they don't go far from his room at any other time, and when we travel overnight somewhere only one comes along - but each night and at nap time he makes sure they are all there.
That and the half dozen blankets. We washed them yesterday - and he gave them each a hug when they came out of the dryer. All together they make a Super Duper Double Munchkin Tent at nap time - until he pulls them all down and makes a nest to curl up in.
I wonder as he gets older if he will remember his blankies and buddies as fondly as I remember mine? At least we have a picture of his buddies for posterity... and such original names: Pig, Chicken, Monkey, Clifford and Sera (short for Triceratops).

This little guy actually belongs to The Munchkin - he was a Christmas present from Gramma and Grandpa. He was given the name "turtle" because there is an online component to this line of plush and I would not let the Munchkin name the turtle after himself for safety reasons - so he decided just plain old "turtle"was the best name.
