Strange Bedfellows

My Sadie, Sade has a tendency to sleep with some strange things. She picks these things out after her door is closed, so I never know what she has chosen until I wake her up in the mornings, or at nap time.

Sometimes it is a traditional doll (albeit with a hard head).

By the way, Sadie likes to have her clothes off while napping.

This was her skin after finding her asleep on top of a toy piano.

It's often her pink princess phone, which she adores.

Her sesame street cup is a favorite.

Books sometimes make an appearance. On a side note Megan used to sleep with a book under her pillow for years. If only it would have taught her to love reading more!

Occasionally, Sade picks things a little more out of the the ordinary:

Sleeping Bag

Magna Doodle

This bazaar ball hopping toy. With her little arm around it, it makes it looks like it is the most snuggle worthy toy she owns.

On this particular day I think she really outdid herself! She has an Elmo toy, a doll, a firehat, and a ball popper to keep her company.

I guess she needs those things to comfort her, because the last few weeks she has insisted on putting herself to bed. That's right, when I ask her is she wants me or Eric to tuck her in, she responds, "No, I tuck myself in." And then she goes into her room, and does just that.  My heart may never stop breaking!
