The kid is getting so big and strong. If there is something too high for him, he's just a few dangling feet short of a pull-up. If his mouth can't reach the savory textures, he'll make it reach!
I've seen children with an attachment to a blanket or a book, it's funny at times, sad when it's needed... Ty and I have made it a point to not encourage reliance on any particular toy, blanket or book, so we never find ourselves in a tragic situation when the "woobie" is not there to comfort. With that said... we have come to experience what it is like for a child to love a belonging so much, that it calms, excites, fascinates...you get the idea. "I love You Through and Through" by Bernadette Rossetti-Shustak... Bryce loves this book. He can go to sleep without it, but he just loves this little book. Everyone who knows Bryce, knows he is a happy baby. But you oughta see him when we pull out this book. Every other book, when read to him, he is so antsy and squirmy, this one... he sits patiently, grinning ear to ear, cover to cover.

That is the same book that we would read to Parker every night before bed. He loved it! But now he is too independent. He won't have anything to do with a bedtime routine. Sometimes we try but he throws a fit and stops as soon as you put him in the crib.
