We received two Lovey security blankets as presents for Maureen's birth - one yellow duck lovey and one pink lamb lovey. We discussed using something like a security blanket as a comfort tool for Maureen so we immediately started putting Mo to bed with one of the two lovies and she took to it. Soon, she couldn't go anywhere without a lovey.Once Maureen started to learn her colors, she began to differentiate between the two lovies. Each one developed its own personality and they were no longer interchangeable. She now cannot go anywhere without two lovies, which makes things more difficult for us. When, at one time we had a back-up lovey in the event that one went missing, we now have a situation where every lovey matters. I have become overly obsessive about keeping tabs on the lovies when we go out in public. So much so that I'm afraid my obsessive/compulsive behavior may have rubbed off on little Mo. And don't get me started on pacey.
