Extreme Makeover: Lovey Edition

Okay, so seriously, is there anyone out there whose kids love upon their loveys as much as mine? Claire’s blue bear: more like dingy greyish bear. Adam’s Munchy: I wouldn’t bury my nose in that stringy, lint-collector for $50. And “Buppo” (Ben’s Hippo): sadly emaciated and hopelessly stained. What can I say? There’s a lot of lovin’ going on in this house. I actually have to sneakily replace the stuffed animals about once a year and tell them that their beloveds got a makeover! (Really, I do that. My sense of humor is strange and not limited to adult interactions.) The reason for this blog? I’m currently bidding on a new hippo for Ben on ebay (and trying to remember the exact name of Adam’s Ty monkey).
