The Blue Puppy

I have to share a story about sweet Mr. Eli from last week. Our morning was like any other typical morning, I loaded Eli into his car seat and handed him the blue puppy to hold onto on the way to daycare. He's played with it off and on, but never really been attached. As I went to get him out of the car I moved the puppy out of his car seat so that I could leave it in the car. He immediately started screaming! I gave it back and he was fine. When we got inside the daycare I had to move the puppy so that I could unbuckle him out of his car seat. He screamed again! When I gave it back he was fine. I handed him over to one of the teachers and she tried to take his jacket off and move the puppy again. As you've guessed, he screamed again until she gave it back. We thought it best to leave it with him. As I was walking out I peeked in to check on him and he was dragging the puppy everywhere he went. It's just too funny because when Noah was a baby he loved the blue puppy too. He loved it so much we bought two of them and had his six months pics taken with it. Being the mom that I am I had to get a pic of Eli with and without the puppy to show you his reaction. I'm so bad!

So here's one with the puppy...

And without the puppy...
And just for giggles - one pic of Noah with the puppy when he was a baby...
