It seems like every boy and girl (if not all, at least most) create a bond with some object when they are young; it can be a blanket, a bottle, a pacifier, or in this little boy's case a stuffed animal. Once this bond is made, they want to go EVERYWHERE with their "friend". Colin never really used pacifiers (at times we really wished he would) and he only likes his "baba" (bottle) at sleepy time, but he loves...(You may have guessed what Colin's is...maybe you have seen him in a few pictures, if not all of them)...his stuffed animal, a bunny that he calls "buddy" He was trying to say bunny and "buddy" came out and it just stuck. At first we tried to correct him but now anytime he sees a bunny he calls it "buddy". I thought that Buddy deserved a blog entry, it is getting close to the day he came into our lives (he was a Easter gift from Grandma Liz). This Easter will be two years that he has been with us. I am honestly surprised that he has lasted this long. I am so thankful that the stuffed animal Colin clung to came from such good stock! We have had a few scares of misplacing Buddy and I would just hate the day that Buddy was no longer around. So, here is a glimpse at Buddy in his first two years of being a boy's best "buddy"!
The beginning of Buddy!
He goes everywhere with us!
He was even in our Christmas picture! He is just part of the family!
