Jaedyn and her "Lays"

Jaedyn has become attached to her "lays" a.k.a. blankets. ALL OF THEM (OK, well she doesn't know about the ones at the top of her closet). But the 8 or so that she has found. This has been for a while now.

When she goes to bed at night, she has to have ALL of them on her, AND I have to count them as I put them on her.

For a while she would bring them every where around the house with her. If she saw me putting them away. She would freak and run and get them and put them by her.

When we go on a trip I would try packing one "lay" and she would run and get the rest and pack them herself. She got away with it one trip. When we went to Grammy's and Grandpa's she took them. In the picture above you can see Grammy holding her with all her lays on. Note the bottle.... Grammy is feeding her a bottle (she doesn't take bottles anymore, although she would still take them if I let her) and Jaedyn is just eating it up (eating up the fact that Grammy is treating her like the little baby). I guess Grammy misses having a grand baby around so the closest one is my 2 1/2 year old daughter. But anyway, that is another story.

Below is a picture of her with all her "lays" here at home, you can't tell from the pictures, but there are at least 7 or 8 lays there.

Oh... notice her little stuffed animals. Her cow, "Chloe" and her other stuffed animal both had to be tucked in the blankets... I mean "lays" too.

So cute!

My kids love blankets too. Although aprarently not as much as Jaedyn! Every morning they have to pull one out and curl up in it when we read scriptures. They even "try" to have it at the breakfast table. But we stop that. They try to say it is because they are cold, but I don't believe it. I think it is an attachement thing (or habit). But with them it can be ANY blanket. :)

That is so cute. I love the pic of your mom...it made me a little homesick. I miss her! I remember we had this old quilt that Kendra loved, so my mom finally just gave it to her. I don't think she ever went anywhere without it. You can tease her about that.

She is so cute! And getting big too! We are doing well! I love being a mom! It so rewarding, but it does not leave too much time for anything else. My blog posts lately have been lacking. :( Boston and Xander are really starting to play well together, so maybe more time for myself is just around the corner. I hope that you guys are doing well too! You have not posted a lot either. I am sure that you are running after your sweet little ones too!
