Three Step Process

First, place Lovey on one folded corner of blanket
Second, simply roll Lovey in blanket
Third, pat Lovey, give her kisses and tell her it's time for a snoozer.
Mimi has instinctual mommy qualities and is bound to be the best big sister EVER!! I had her girly blankets put aside to place in storage since Mac has put his foot down and demanded that his son not be swaddled in pink flowers, and M snatched them right up. All 15 of her baby dolls have been appropriately swaddled and rocked.
And this guy some how ended up getting swaddled and placed in his bassinet too. He'll do anything for attention these days. He can sense the impending neglect that is about to occur in 2 months.
Mimi's been on a daddy 'kick' lately. She wakes up every morning saying "I want daddy". Does my heart cringe a little at her oppositional stance against mommy? Maybe a little, but it is so damn cute that it makes me smile. You see, daddy is an early riser so he usually gets Maryn up on the weekends and I get to sleep an extra 30 minutes. Daddy also can not function until he has eaten his bowl of cereal. Not function meaning, he can't even feed his daughter before he eats, so Mimi gets her milk and gets to lounge in front of the t.v. and watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse while Daddy feeds his addiction. Daddy then drags her highchair into the family room so she can simultaneously watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and eat her breakfast. No wonder she asks for daddy before she even exits the crib!
I mean...daddy's are really FUNNY!!
And Mimi is a lucky girl whose daddy's job allows plenty of quality time with his baby:) And that is fun for mommy!
