| Do you notice anything missing? |
Brielle's beloved monkey paci died today :-( I was getting her in the carseat and noticed the paci had fallen under her butt. When I went to pull it out from under her the paci detached from sock monkey. There is really no way to reattache it so it's pretty much the end of an era!
It was so pitiful too. The whole car ride home Brielle had the paci part in her mouth and was just holding on to the monkey staring at him. She couldn't figure out what was going on! Then later when she got upset she went to grab the monkey paci and instead just got the monkey....and was desperately trying to suck on his now empty nose. I'm hoping we can get away with back up lion paci and have her just hold the monkey toy ....we'll see. I may be placing an overnight online order for a monkey wubanub :-P
Here was Brielle carrying around her "dead" friend this morning...
| Just not the same without the attached monkey! |
This is the very first picture I have of her and monkey paci
Even though monkey paci is almost always with her, I actually don't have *that* many pictures of them together because I usually take it away from her before photoshoots lol. But here are a few I found to share---
"I love and miss you monkey paci! Love, Brielle"
"Don't worry, dear friend....you will always know that even though I have lion paci as backup, it will never be the same! You are irreplaceable. XOXO"
| Looks like I'm stuck with you now, lion paci! Perhaps I can learn to love you too. |
aww poor Monkey paci. hopefully she doesn't get to upset without it!
ReplyDeleteSorry, Brielle, but this made me laugh! She is just so cute! I hope she can manage with the lion!

Lol. Your mom cracks me up.
ReplyDeleteI see monkey was in on the whole stealing Ryan's reindeer hat. I vote for the lion!
ReplyDeleteLong time reader but i just have never commented till now. I feel so sorry for poor Brielle especially the part where you said she was sucking on the monkey nose. Hopefully she will be able to transiton to the lion paci. Just have to say your two girls are adorable, thank you for sharing their stories. I also have two girls 4 and half and a 2 and half year old. Challenging at times but so worth it as i'm sure you will agree. I promise to comment more.

Nice to "meet" you! Thanks for commenting :-)
DeleteSo far so good everyone---she slept fine last night with lion paci, and just clutching monkey toy in her hands LOL. Although this morning she did get confused again and try to suck on monkey's nose!
ReplyDeleteAwe!! Poor Breille! Poor monkey! Glad you have a lion for a backup! :)
ReplyDeleteOh no, Brielle! Poor girl. Hopefully she'll adjust alright, and it sounds like Grama is on it!
ReplyDeleteAlso, and sort of related- Walmart has cute Easter sock-monkey bunnies! I saw it and thought of Brielle!
Thanks for the heads up----she definitely needs one I think! :-)
