Someone in our house has a serious addiction, and I'm not talking about me & my stash of Halloween chocolate out in the garage...Zay is only supposed to have binkies when it's naptime or bedtime, but sometimes he's not very cooperative. He has a Mo-Mo for nighttime. You can see the silly product here. We got it because when he was little (you know, back when he was just a baby, not a big grown up kid like he is now) he would go to bed with 5 binkies in his crib and by halfway through the night he'd have lost them all through the crib slats. So this "binkie blanket" as we call it attaches right to the binky and keeps it from falling out of the crib. I realize we are pretty much attaching a blanket to his face, and I also realize that "blanket" is just another word for "suffocation hazard" when it comes to babies, but he doesn't seem to have been harmed by it yet.
Anyway, the other morning I changed his diaper and was getting him dressed and he refused to let go of the binky blanket long enough for me to pop it out, put his shirt on, then pop it back in. So he kept the binky in and had the little blanket stuffed underneath his shirt for a good hour that morning. I am already picturing putting him on the schoolbus as a kindergartener, making sure he has his backpack, his shoes are tied, and his binky blanket is tucked in...
