Do your kids have a special sleep blanket or item?
Julia has a "mankie" (blankie with an "m") that she likes to sleep with. She couldn't say the word blanket at the time so she called it a mankie. Now that she can say the word correctly, for some reason that particular blanket is still a mankie. Lucy and Esther don't really have anything.
Not that I haven't tried! I made each girl a cute little taggie blanket before they were born. They couldn't care less. One time I asked the girls what toys they wanted to get rid of and the only thing Lucy suggested was her taggie blanket. I made her keep it. lol I recently got these adorable little snuggle blankets from aden + anais to review. I really tried, but I guess Esther isn't a blanket kid either.
I did get her to play peek a boo with it for a minute before she was on to something else.
*I* think these would make the perfect snuggly for a new baby. They come in a pack of two (in case you lose one or need to wash it), and are a thin cotton muslin with super soft satin binding. The blankets are thin and breathable, so you could even let a little baby use it. Just the right size to pack in the diaper bag and take along. sigh. Maybe I'll have a blanket kid someday.
This about wraps up my posts on sleep. Check back tomorrow for one more. :)

ReplyDeleteWhat a mischievous, adorable smile that is! :)
ReplyDeleteMy daughter isn't a blanket girl either. I, on the other hand, still have my baby blankets, two of them, stored in my closet--I am 31 years old lol
