Some children have blankies, bears and binkies. Gavin falls asleep with one ball in each hand and then eventually drops them, but the second he wakes up he picks them up. He started asking for a ball when he would go to bed and I always told him "no, it is time to go to sleep". Finally, I decided maybe if I just give him a ball he will lay down and go to sleep. That is exactly what happened! We do have house rules because the squishy night night balls have been lost before. They must not leave the crib. Sometimes he will hold on to them while we change his first diaper of the day, but he knows as soon as he is done he has to go put them back in the crib.
