Bentley's Favorite Things

Bentley currently has three very, very, very favorite things. He takes them to bed at night, carries them downstairs in the morning, back upstairs at nap time, and keeps very careful track of them all through the day. We try to convince him to leave them at home when we go out, but we don't always succeed. He really, really, really likes his blankie, his doggie, and his little cars.

His blankie was crocheted for him by his great-grandma when he was a wee little one. (Isn't he still a wee little one?!) It has fringe on it which is what he loves most about it. His blankie has been a favorite thing for most of his life.

His doggie is a new acquisition. Amrita gave him and the twins each a little stuffed doggie two weeks ago. Bentley doesn't usually get attached to stuffed animals, but for some reason he was very taken by this one and added it to his must-have-with-me stash.

His favorite cars change as he acquires new ones. For the past eight days his top picks are Lightening McQueen and Sally. The first couple of days he got them he had one clutched in each hand almost 24-7. As his stash of must-have-with-me cars has grown, he has taken to wrapping them in his blankie.


The boy is a hoarder.
