Adeline's Baby

When Adeline gets tired, hurt or upset, you can count on her wanting "baby." Her baby is a frog security blanket (a gift from Aunt Rachel and Uncle Nick, thanks!) that stays in the house for bedtime and a duck security blanket that lives in the car. She has been attached to her baby since she was only a few months old. It was even one of her first few words. The name came from her all of a sudden saying "my baby!" when lying in her bed one day. We had no idea what she was referring to at first other than the fact that we would refer to her as "my baby." It didn't take long to figure out what she was wanting:


Well, the other day she helped me put baby and blanket (her other security item) in the washer and then into the dryer. She got very upset about something while they were drying so she went up to the dryer and cried, "Dwy, Baby, dwy!!!" She has quite the sense of humor and always has us laughing, but this one makes it pretty high on the list!
