yesterday i went to the store to pick out material for a fleece blanket that i was going to tie for my friend as a baby gift. i came across a totally cute fabric that i liked for mikenna. i thought to myself that i really wanted to make her a blanket. this was a perfect idea. first of all her blanket is a small ragidy old ripped 28 year old yellow blanket. i know this because it is my baby blanket. some how when she was a baby, i used it for her once and never got it back. i have been trying to preserve it but she is so attached to it. my kids have a blanket maniac obsession. anyway, i bought the fabric and made her a nice big comfy blanket.
this is her old blanket...
and i traded her for it with this new one.. and she loves it. last night i gave it to her and to my shock, andon was very upset he didn't get a new blanket. i felt so bad and his blanket is pretty beat up to... plus this is a new interest that i enjoy doing so .....

Love the blankets - old and new. I have been trying to take my older boy's blankets away, but have had no such luck. They now have about 5 blankets each and try to take them everywhere they go. I told them I refuse to let them take them on their missions :) Love the fabric and YOU GO GIRL!
