Adventure of the B.B.s

Parker has accumulated quite the bedtime collection of necessities. He has 2 blankets (he calls them his B.Bs), a beanie baby dog - called "puppy", a teddy bear - called Dakka bear and his paci. Tonight I was changing his bedding and putting his blankies in the wash and he was not going for it. I would put the blankets in the washing machine then he would take them out...in, out, in, out...it was a vicious cycle. He didn't want his b.bs in the washing machine - period! I didn't want to upset him for the 50 minute wash cycle by forcing him to give them to me so I talked him into a game of ball and tossed them in once he was distracted. He was very happy to see them after they were dry. Crisis averted! Whew...mom wins this one!
