Junk...

That is how Michael affectionately refers to the many "treasures" our two oldest "must" have to go to sleep. Recently, the little piles have taken on a life of their own, so last night as I was putting them to bed, I just had to take a picture. Seriously, it is unreal!! We are obviously raising two little hoarders over here. Notice, Whitt has his perfectly lined up, all staring at him, his own personal audience. He has been doing this (lining things up) since he was fourteen months. Mae on the other hand prefers to make one giant, messy pile so that she is almost squeezed out of the bed by it. And, yes, that is "lovie" right by her face. If you know Mae, you know "lovie". So, here's a nod to a bit of materialism that has snuck into the Stockburger household. Just look at how proud their sweet little faces are over their mounds. I admit I crack up every time I look at these pictures. Let's just hope they grow out of this by adulthood, and we don't find them on a TLC hoarding special one day. Just in case you were wondering, yes, those are snuggies in the picture. Mae's is Disney princesses; Whitt's is Lightning McQueen, and Whitt likes to wear his backwards like a cape. Christmas gifts from the cousins. Yet, another sleeping requirement!
