    [SIZE=10pt]Mikayla has my pink ROBE! I don't know how she adopted this as her blanket, but she is obsessed with it. We call it Woobie. Michael has a blue and white knitted blanket that he calls BLANKIE. He drags it around and sucks his thumb like Linus! :laughing: Do your kids have a special blanket? If so, what do they/you call it?

    We call Ainsley's blanket "tabby", it's a Taggie blanket and DH kept calling it tabby instead of taggie, and it stuck. She just says "tah" and makes the sign for blanket. Ainsley points to her mouth and says "dit" when she wants her binky. She also is attached to her winter hat and says and signs "hat" when she wants it.

    Bea also signs blanket and hers doesn't really have a name, it's just blanket. She says "bah-k" something like that. Bea says "bap" for binky and points to her mouth. She recently became attached to a Christmas ornament and has named it "doll", which she says and signs.

    Mine don't seem to call theirs anything yet, but we call them Bunny and Ducky (because that's what they are). Amy is also attached to little terrycloth drool bibs (not any one of them in particular) and seems to say "Bee!" when reaching for them, but that would also be consistent with "bib" in Amy-speak, so maybe she's just saying "bib." I'm anxiously waiting to see what Bunny, in particular, is going to be called, once Sarah is verbal enough to have a name for it. (I always think of it as a him -- I guess that's probably sexist of me! But I always thought my lovey in childhood was male too.)

    My girls have blankets that were knit by their "Bubbe" (DH's step-mother). They are beautiful and they've had them since birth -- they are their "Bubbe Blankets." They also have quilts made by a family friend -- they are the "Big Blankets."

    Since giving up the pacis last week, BTW, Jade drags her "Bubbe Blanket" with her pretty much everywhere. That and her "Beach Hat" (which she also sleeps with).

    Alyssa doesn't have a blanket-she sucks her thumb, which she sometimes refers to as "sucky". Bryony, Naomi and Luke all use muslin cloths for their blankets (they have lots and are happy with any one). Bryony calls hers "snuggle", I guess because of us talking about snuggling down to sleep, and Naomi and Luke call theirs "rag" which their father started.

    Mine call theirs "numma-num". This is a name they came up with on their own. The ones I let them carry around are the little blankets with stuffed animal heads although any blanket with a satin edge is a numma-num.

    Mine call theirs "snuglis". They have a several of them. They are not the size of a full size blanket. Much smaller. They like to chew on them so I bought more so I would be able to give them to them clean each day.
