For the Love of Ladle

Owen has found his "security toy" of the day. He panics when he can't see it, and CRIED when I took it away for nap time. He has taken it to diaper changes, has toted it around the house and even has taken to eating with it by his side. I never would have guessed this would be his favorite toy... it's the ladle.

I think he likes the multiple functions of the ladle. It tastes good.It's a good walking stick when climbing hills.

A good reaching tool. (he used it to snag my cell phone that was out of his reach) Of course a noise maker.

And a source of comfort.

I wonder if he'll still love it tomorrow... I do like to imagine us not being able to leave the house without Owen's security ladle. It's at least easy to wash!
