My kids obsessions...

So my kids have a few obsessions. Ty likes dinosaurs and is obsessed with cup-stacking right now. Karson is animals- especially his zebra (that he seems to be eating in the picture). Mary is her baby that she got from Aunt Heidi and Uncle Kendall for Christmas. We can't go anywhere without the zebra and the baby, though. Mary is constantly taking her baby for walks and dancing with her. She also feeds her (I'm constantly prying waffles and cheerio's out of her mouth), and puts her down for naps. At bedtime- the baby has to be right next to her and have her own blanket. You always wonder where she gets these instincts from- we don't really have a lot of babies around to watch, you know? But at any rate it's pretty comforting to know that she knows how to be soft and caring and careful (except for the prying food down baby's mouth) she is considering in a few months we will have a real baby taking over around here.
