Attachments

I am completely in favor of babies having a security object. Our kids love their identical pink/blue blankets. I didn't force the love onto them, and they have other soft blankets, but they both chose to be attached to these ones. I bought this for Caiden before he was born because Addysin loved hers so much. I had to buy a second one for Addysin because hers was disgusting from sucking on it. We COULD NOT got anywhere without her blanket up till she was close to 2 1/2 .Caiden isn't that bad with it. He just has to have it to sleep, with his ugly soothie hospital binkie.



In the beginning, Caiden only sucked on his binkie to fall asleep. I couldn't make him take it is he wasn't tired. Then around 15 months, it bacame a part of him. The conbination of the blanket and binkie make him a cuddle bug if I am holding them (which he was not as a young infant). Does he love me or them?

Weaning him of it will not be easy, but right now it makes my life a lot more easy. Especially when he face plants into a door frame HARD and gets a goose egg such as this...


 So I dont care if hes attatched to it. You ugly binkie, we love you.

So cute! Noah used to have a fuzzy blue and white blanket for about 2 years then we got rid of it and now he likes any blanket that is fuzzy. lol he will even crawl into Elijah's bed at night and take one of his soft blankets. I don;t mind him having it to sleep but Colby will not let him have it. I guess I like it because like you said with your two it makes life easier. He sleeps so much better. P.S Your kids are so cute:)
