Those of you who've seen Evie in person in the past few months know she's developed a little problem...she's a pack rat! She always has a purse or bag full of stuff, her arms loaded down, or her pockets are full. Going places with her is a challenge. It takes forever for her to 'pack' and then you have to bargain with her about what she can/can't take inside with her.
Well, she also has this same habit at bedtime. U.D.B.D. (the doll) is a given, as is 'Booty's bwanket & her bottle.' But during the night, Evie tends to get up to search for stuff to add to her midden (that's a pack rat's nest...yes, I googled. LOL!).
Last night was the best...er, worst. We were up in the living room when we heard the little rat's scratching begin. We knew what she was doing, so didn't disturb, as that would lead to tears. By the time we got ready to go to bed, our little rat was sound asleep in the midst of her treasure.
Here's what she had (going strictly from memory):
-UDBD, who had been undressed, diapered, and redressed.
-Booty's car seat (although she was not properly secured)
-Lily, the Cabbage Patch newborn (buck-naked, I might add)
-a baby doll sling (disassembled)
-Winnie the Pooh (stuffed)
-2 books (Goodnight Moon & some boy potty-training book)
-a jacket & its hanger
-a spare hanger (you know...just in case)
-2 pairs of baby leggings
-a Peek-a-blocks caterpillar thing
-an extra blanket & pillow
-a lone shoe
Oh, and she was was wearing her Dora slippers.
All of this plus Evie in a toddler bed!
