It's been awhile since I've posted, but instead of writing a novel, I'll just update you on Maddie's recent find: her own blankie!
Lately, we've been noticing that she loves to grab at the receiving blankets and play with them, cuddle them and shove them into her mouth (like everything else she gets her hands on!). So this weekend, while at Target, I found a Maddie-sized blanket that has little ribbon loops around the outside edge with all different textures. She loves to chew on the loops and play with them, and loves to snuggle up with it when she's sleepy or relaxing.
