usually baby-safe, fun to grab, chew, or whip around for playtime, and a nice companion to cuddle for bedtime! and something they may hang on to for years.
also this shrimp one I would easily get for myself right now as an adult he’s so cute 🦐
I ventured into a Target not that long ago for valentine’s candy (#single activities), and found the love of my life after all. A plush kids’ dino that’d been abandoned by the Reese’s. his name is oswald & I love him very much.
This NYT piece from last year explains why it’s actually a Good and Normal thing to do. I used to have like six in the bed at once but recently culled my crew to two practical ones: this sleeping Charmander plushie, which I hug while I’m in the fetal position, and an Ugly Doll I put between my knees because it’s nice and flat. They're so comfy and I fall asleep in 30 seconds like this (also they’re cute and I love them)
Today was Bat Appreciation Day. If you haven’t done so already, now is the time to appreciate bats. I’ve made it pretty easy with this collage of a few fav bat pics – please enjoy 😊
