it's binkie time! bunnies by the bay

www.bunniesbythebay.com

among the many fabulous baby gifts we got at our baby shower (thanks, friends and family!) was a little binkie.

"huh," i thought. "well, it's cute, even if i don't know what the hell i'm going to do with it exactly."

little did i know that this would turn out to be the best baby shower present ever.

bunnies by the bay is a great company that makes snuggly and sweet baby gifts, like soft fuzzy hats, flurffy stuffed animals (we like ittybit the bunny in our house) and most importantly, these binkies.

one of the things i gleaned from the ten thousand sleep classes i took was that having a "lovey" (a little something for your baby to snuggle with and associate with sleepytime) is a great bedtime cue. so we tried this binkie and it stuck! bunnies by the bay binkies are just the right size and softness for your baby to bring to bed every night.

word to the wise: buy two, since one will always inevitably be either a) in the hamper, b) confiscated by the dog or c) nowhere to be found. (probably due to "b," i'm guessing.)
