Crinkle

Many other crinkles
Even one that looked just like it, but pink.... we still couldn't fool her.
The ONLY Crinkle

We have been really blessed that none of our kids took to the pacifier. They breastfed forever, maybe that was the blessing? Toby has George his monkey, and Zack kind of has some blankets. (neither really freaks if they don't have it) But, Emma-- oh Emma. She has gotten hooked on her Crinkle. Had I known, I would have bought 10. It stinks after 3 days. She rubs it on her face, under her nose, carries it with her and looks for it when she gets into trouble. We have tried to limit her use/access, but then it seems really mean.. did it really hurt Linus? We have bought several other crinkles, and I tried to sneak it into the wash the other day. Needless to say, with our dryer troubles it was not dry by bedtime. She threw a fit. So, wet crinkle made its way back into her bed. I am reminded by my mom about my gross blanket, and the very small remnant she gave to me.. it was also gross. But, I have great memories of it, and hopefully so will Emma. I am just really glad I know how to sew to fix it.. once it is clean and doesn't stink.. It really is awful.. but, she could care less.. It's her crinkle.
