The Baby Pillow

It’s really cute how Troy has to sleep holding his “baby pillow” in his arms. It’s like a small, travel pillow that my wife got for him. It’s his “baby pillow” to differentiate it from his “mama pillow” where he puts his head, which is a standard-sized pillow. It’s funny because my wife and I both sleep, holding a pillow in our arms. So, I guess Troy saw us doing it and decided that he needed one too. Sometimes, he’ll even sleep on his face, holding a baby pillow in each arms! And on special occasions, he’ll sleep holding a baby pillow in each arm and laying on top of a lovie. Which is hilarious, because his torso will be raised off the bed and his bum will be jutting out.

And he refuses to sleep without them. We bought several of them to rotate them out while we’re washing them, but we have run into dire situations where all of them are in the wash at the same time. In those cases, we found that a lovie will work as a temporary substitute, but we also find ourselves on probation for screwing it up!
