Poll: Describe your LO(s) Lovey

DD #1 has three: Mr. Bunny, Uncle Bunny, and Mary Poppins. Mr. Bunny is the most important, and Uncle Bunny was a replica we bought of Mr. Bunny in case we needed a backup, but she could tell the difference, and now needs/wants both of them. So that backfired. MIL gave her a Mary Poppins doll last year after she became obsessed with the movie and songs. We have gotten some strange looks from friends and family when they see her dragging around a mini-woman.

DD #2 has a little stuffed pig we simply call "Piggy" :-)

DS has a little stuffed Tigger. The great thing about it is that it has a little jingly thing inside, so you can always hear him coming

DD's is one of those flat soft bears that are made for infants. She just calls him "Bear". One time I lost him in the wash. Since he is so flat he must have gotten caught inside a piece of clothing. We found him in a couple days, the next time I did their wash.

Now he goes in the lingerie bag with the socks

Aww, those sound so cute. Our son has a little white (well, it WAS white, after a year of use it's more of a grimy off-white, despite frequent washings) blanky that is satin on one side and minky on the other. It's pretty small, just about the size of his midsection. We've always just called it his "lovey". He also has a super-old Playskool cloth doll with a plastic face that we used to call "blue baby" until I realized it sounded like the baby was dead, and then it became "baby". It was my 18 year old sister's when she was little. He cuddles both things to his chest as he sleeps.

DD has three: two knitted toddler blankets and Violet (Leap Frog dog).

Gisele has a bunny- that she built with DH at Build a Bear on their special daddy-daughter date night- back in Feb around V-day. She calls it 'hunny bunny' after the books (about PJ funnybunny and his sister Hunny Funnybunny) ~ she sleeps with it- but she isn't really super attached to it. ~ her blanket however is very important. She has torn the corners to shreds- (she bites on it) she has slept with it pretty much since she was 1 and snuggles with it.

Chase- really doesn't have anything per se just yet. When we were learning how to nurse unswaddled (like umm last month lol) He had a stuffed lamb that i would try to get him to hold so he wouldn't smack me. That lasted for oh about a week.

Parker has a "Mr. Friend"- just a bear head on a blanket. The thing is nappi as heck but she loves it. We have an exact replica but a friend of mine also bought one that looks similar. That one is called "Amigo"- get it!?- and he stays in the car just in case we forget Mr. Friend.

Rowan has a frog head on a blanket and we call him Froggy Friend. We still need to find a replica. You'd think I'd be smart the second time around and buy 2 at once but I wasn't. I blame it on hormones

ETA- Parker also adopted a spring green henley blanket that she named her "lovey buggy" that she sleeps with every night. Mr. Friend comes out and about with us in the car, downstairs, etc. Lovey Buggy stays in bed.

Eva has a little stuffed hedgehog that she has slept with since she was about 6 months old. His name is Hedgie and he is almost completely flat from all the love. She also sleeps with a small taggie-type blanket she calls Lovey and a satin-backed baby blanket she calls Silky.

JOEBunny · May 2011

The JellyCat Polo neck giraffe. It looks like this, except that it is a giraffe, so it is yellow and has pointy ears. He goes almost everywhere with us.

mabma80 · May 2011

When DS#1 was little (I'm talking 6mths-almost 2), he carted around a little blue and cream colored puppy that DH named "Herbert".

DS#2 has his Mickey Mouse blanket that he calls "my blankie". God help us if we ever lose it.

memali26 · May 2011

DD has Elephant. It's a pink elephant head on a little 12x12 inch blanket - one of the Carter's loveys. It stays in her crib for bed and naps, along with her blanket that is trimmed with satin. I'm not sure how attached she really is to either object, but I make sure they are always in whatever bed she's sleeping in so we don't have to find out the hard way :P

emathis2 · May 2011

DS has a stuffed monkey he named "Friend". He has to have the money and 2 blankets whenever he needs comfort. The blankets are just as important to him as the monkey for some reason. Thankfully he only wants these things at home. It would be a lot to lug around.

ToBeMrsT · May 2011

ds doesn't have one.

dd's is her ally zabba blanket.

MainelyFoolish · May 2011

DD has Bunny. It's a (formerly) pink bunny head on a mini blanket with a rattle inside the bunny head. There is a second identical bunny at her grandma's house that she gets to visit - she likes playing with both at the same time - but the second one never comes home with us so we can have a backup if the original bunny gets lost/destroyed.

vernab · May 2011

DS has one, Mooserson. He's a little stuffed moose that we got as a gift before he was born.

WhitePicketFence · May 2011

DD doesn't really have one. She does have 2 velour blankets that are trimmed in satin that she snuggles with while she sleeps. She'll also ocassionally want them to cuddle with when she's overly fussy. They're pretty interchangeable to her though so I don't know how attached she really is to them.

luvmagoldn · May 2011

DS#1 - his puppy pillow pet (his name might be Sparky, not sure) and his kiki (soft blue blanket).

DS#2 - penguin pillow pet (Pepito) and as of Saturday night another smaller penguin (Frosty).

DS#3 - little froggy head attached to a 1x1 foot square of blanket (aptly named Froggy).

jnksmom · May 2011

DS has a small stuffed dalmatian he calls "puppy" and another dog he built at Build-a-bear with my mom called "puppy J". My mom recorded her voice to put in puppy J so he pushes the button every night to hear Gram talk to him. He has had both for over 2 years. Puppy J is bigger and stays in the bed but puppy goes with us in the car, downstairs, etc.

DD has a small square blanket that is silk on one side and soft cloth on the other. She calls it "silky" and it goes everywhere with us.

They both have a bigger blanket that has silk around the edges that they sleep with but we don't take out anywhere...DD's is pink and DS's is white. DD is more attached to hers and cuddles it all night. She holds it by the tag and rubs the silk to go to sleep and has since she was about a year. DS has to have his in his bed but doesn't cuddle it all night or wake up looking for it. My brother had a blanket just like it when he was little and he bought both of my kids one when I was pregnant which I thought was really sweet.

DS has a couple: there's "Bear" a bear head on a mini blanket with a chicago bears logo on the blanket (That I have tried to find a replica of and they must not make anymore - that thing is so gross as DS chews on the bear head and the satin binding at nap/bedtime). Then there's "blankie" which is one of his Aden & Anais blankets (he doesn't care which one with those, luckily!). There's also "school bear" - a bear head on a mini blanket that is obviously, only used at daycare for naps.

Blankie and Bear have to stay in his room - (unless we're travelling) as they're only used for sleeping. That also gives Bear a chance to dry out between nap and bedtime. And I'm also terrified of losing him, since I can't find a replacement. I can remember my mom having to replace the binding on my blankie, and I'm now looking for orange binding in preparation for replacing the binding on Bear.

Mrs.Hizzo · May 2011

Bear head on mini blanket named "Bee" is DS#1's lovey. He isn't quite as attached to it as he used to be, but he still sleeps with it. Monkey head on mini blanket named "Mo-Mo" for DS#2.

JaysonandKristin · May 2011

Hank has DogDog... It was my husband's when he was a little boy (in fact, this is actually DogDog #2 as DH wore the hell out of his original DogDog). It looks like a generic Snoopy. It's a brown and white dog, and it feels like a brillo pad compared to the softness of today's stuffed animals, but DS loves it.

Daisy77 · May 2011

DD#2 has 3 small bears, identical in shape and size, but each a different color. Each goes by the name "Boo" so it's "Purple Bear Boo", "Yellow Bear Boo" and "Green Bear Boo". They didn't all use to be hers, only Purple is her original. She lost it one day and DS ran to get his (green) and said she could have it so she'd feel better (awwww...). Then DD#1 came across hers (yellow) one day and decided that DD#2 loved those bears in a way only a little kid can so she gave Yellow to DD#2 as well. At any given one time one or more may be missing but as long as she has one she is happy. And she insists that Purple and Yellow are "hers" and Green is the only "him", lol.

ETA: The name of her bears is cute until you're in a public place and ask Lexi where her "boos" (um, "booze") are. Tongue Tied Whoops! Lol.

DS1 has a bear that we call "Guy Bear".His Mema and Papa gave him to him the day he was born. It has a music box inside and when you pull down on the handle he sings. He is also attached to 3 fleecey blankets he got as a baby.

DS2 has just gotten one. He always wanted his brother's "Guy Bear" and we thought it was because of the music box, so my Mom got him a blue elephant that has the same music box, but he never wanted anything to do with it. The other day, my Mom and I were shopping with the boys and DS1 saw a stuffed bear that looked exactly like his "Guy Bear" and asked us why he was at the store. We told him that it wasn't "Guy Bear", but a bear that looked similar. So he told us he wanted him. My Mom asked him why and he said that it wasn't for him, it was for his little brother so that he could have his own "Guy Bear". So DS1 gave it to DS2 and now DS2 MUST have this bear..he cuddles him to sleep. He also has 2 "blankies"...he must have them all to sleep!

Liz342 · May 2011

We have never done loveys but DD found something she really likes a few months ago. It's a stuffed ladybug from Kohls that MIL gave her. She loves it and sleeps with it every night.
