Oh, I am a sucker for cute stuffed animals! I love these knit creatures from blabla. Most especially Socks the Fox, Bandit the Racoon, and Mcnutty the Squirrel. How adorable and funny!

When I was a kid, I was pretty much obsessed with stuffed animals. I had a row of beasties along my bed, insulating me from the wall next to where I slept. They were arranged in a very particular order, too. We’ve already acquired some great stuffed animals for Baby L (including Paddington Bear, a hedgehog, a meerkat, and an alligator that is nearly as long as a newborn). I can’t wait to see which one becomes the favorite.
