You'll hear full on Greek tragedies coming from his room for at least a half an hour after bedtime. just wait until he’s closer to three than two; he’ll no longer go right to sleep when you put him to bed with cars in hand.

Before the bear, he used to sleep with a very large tractor. Very cute. Ah yes, Tom has only recently begun bonding with an old Care Bear of mine.

Good in case we ever get a pet too!

This brought back memories of Justin as a toddler. He LOVED, no, obssessed over Thomas the Tank Engine. One year, alllll he wanted for Christmas was Lady the Engine. Well, Lady was only battery operated back then, so she was over $20 but my baby REALLY wanted it, and Santa luckily came thru. He slept with, played with, ate with Lady for 2 weeks, and then lost her! ACK! We searched high and low, had many crying nights, and I finally ordered another one. Well, you guessed it, on the day that the new Lady arrived, we found the old one! He then had TWO Lady's, if you could ever imagine such a joy, and everyone lived happily ever after.

Although it could get a little uncomfortable if he moves around a lot in his sleep! I think it sounds pretty cute too.

It can be tense times too when a little one starts wailing too! Our baby girl is extremely attached to her pacifier and will wake up at all ungodly hours of the night wailing because she can't find herself. I have learned to have at least four by the crib to help out with those emergencies. ;) Yikes - cars and trains must be a little hard to find in the dark!!

But you never liked New Old Dolly. Just so you know, I still have Old Dolly and got her out today and looked at her. Remind me to show her to you the next time you visit. She is very tattered and more than well worn. I think Old Dolly was replaced with New Old Dolly somewhere around the time you were 3 or 4. But you never liked New Old Dolly.

I have to go now and pass out on my keyboard at work.
