Lovey

Asher officially has a lovey! We thought he had passed that stage without attaching to a particular 'comfort item' but apparently we were wrong. After returning from our trip, Asher decided to give us grief for a good 48 hours, so we weren't too surprised when he screamed for 30+ minutes after going to bed Saturday night. Each night, he goes to bed with a paci and a white muslin blanket from his swaddling days. We have three of them and they are great because they are lightweight and breathable. Saturday night, we were down to one blanket (one was in the wash and one was left at Nana's) that was dirty, so we tried to give him a different blanket...this one also plain white, but not muslin. He took the blanket and looked at it as if we had given him a handful of dirt. We didn't think much of it, so we put him to bed as usual. After repeated trips into his room to calm him down, I finally pulled his muslin blankie out of the dryer and took it into him. He grabbed it, collapsed into his crib with it and we never heard another peep. Poor guy just wanted his lovey!
I immediately logged into Amazon and ordered another 4 pack of the white muslin blankets.
