"Nasty bunny" is the name of Bea's special friend, so named for it's nasty appearance and smell. Our other girls have chosen "special blankies", but Bea has devoted herself wholeheartedly to this sad little creature. Our friend Helen Wright wins the prize for creating the favorite blankie/bunny.
Why is the bunny nasty? Mostly because Bea puts herself to sleep by sucking on the hand knots or chewing on the ears. She wipes her nose and teething drool on Bunny. She has pulled the face apart, giving bunny two long mole hairs that hang from its chin. When we put her in her crib, she cries until Bunny is wrapped around her head, and when she wakes up in the morning, she wrestles bunny to the mattress and chews on it until Bunny is soggy and ragged. Washing doesn't help, either.
We asked Helen to create another bunny from similar chenille yarn, but 2nd bunny doesn't get the same adoration. It is but a poor substitute. Viva la stinky bunny!

that's way funny. I love the description of mole hairs too. Kai has just been chewing on his hands lately instead of his blankie or stuffed animals. He still has no teeth!
okay, gross and hilarious at the same time. She is seriously so cute. Love it!!!
I love it--funny little Bea! Bentley has a section of his blankie where the tags are and no matter what they stink (even though he has long grown out of the sucking on them he was once obsessed with). Gotta love nasty bunny--it really is a cute little cuddly.
