The following items are present in the bed with The Young Prince this evening as we attempt to get him to fall asleep:
- Pillow
- Soft Blanket
- Quilt, not so soft
- Snowman Flannel Sheet Set
- Hasenpfeffer the Bunny
- Timmy the Sheep
- Magic Wand
- Toy Helicopter
- Tambourine*
- Snuggle the Bear (Promotional toy from our last trip to the grocery store)
- Woody the Cowboy (Talking)*
- Buzz the Spaceman (Also talking, in both English and Spanish, and playing sound effects, and flashing laser beams)*
- One copy of One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish
I swear that somewhere under his bed is a horde of other toys, because occasionally we hear something that wasn’t accounted for as he drifts off to sleep. I’m amazed there’s still room for Boo.
*Hell hath no wrath as a set of aunts whose childless sister, who has been giving their kids obnoxious presents for years, suddenly has a child of her own.

/ December 14, 2011You should see what's on Baby Girl G.'s bed. 48 pillows, 73 books, 36 blankets, 185 stuffed animals, and one small but cute female child.
Sometimes.
