The Baby Gets a Little Twin Action

filed under: Dadditudes

Max's chosen "comfort object" is his teddy bear, Pearl Bearley. She's awfully soft and cute. Back when he was only moderately attached to her, we got a duplicate Pearl for Nana's house, when we were doing our best to get him hooked in the interests of getting him to sleep more easily (we also - ON OUR DOCTOR'S ADVICE - did this with binkies, only to have said doctor tell us that now we need to take them away again YEAH THANKS).

Now that Max goes to daycare/preschool instead of Nana's, we've gotten Pearl II back - so now both of the Pearl Twins are at our house, one in the crib and one in his school bag.

Yesterday he woke up hard from his nap (which he seems to be doing more often for some reason), and clung to Pearl I as Mommy brought him upstairs. He saw Pearl II in his bag and reached for her, crying "Puh! Need Puh!" between sobs.

So the twins made a rare joint appearance:

There are definitely days when I need twin Pearls. I empathize deeply...
