Ben & Rylee and their blankets

1984 - Ben used to put his blanket in his mouth. He never had a binkie. I could not understand the habit because I figured his blanket must act like a wick drawing the moister out of him. But he loved it. I had to take his blanket away when he fell and cut his lip. I did not want the cut to get infected.

 

2011 - Now that Rylee no longer has a binkie, she is putting her blanket in her mouth.
