A boy and his entourage

Over time, the lineup of absolutely critical buddies has expanded.  We're  now up to 6 or 7 - depending on the day - with the green and purple blanket being the über-companion.  It is starting to show its wear but it goes everywhere. The washing machine always seem to run slower when we manage to convince the young master that it really needs a bath.

As true friends they were there for him when needed...  When he figured out how to climb out of his crib he first threw out all the animals to cushion the landing on the floor!

He has now been upgraded to a Big Boy Bed.  So far it is working very well and he is very proud of his new digs! No, he doesn't sleep on the couch.  I just don't have a photo of the bed...  Of course, with all those animals and a few blankets in the bed it gets pretty crowded.
