The Process

Kira woke up a few days ago and made me aware that Mama Piglet was dirty. (Mama Piglet is the Piglet that Daddy gave Kira when she was born, Daddy Piglet is the puppet Piglet Nana gave Kira a few Christmases ago and Joshy Piglet is the tiny ornament stuff animal Piglet that Mckenna gave Kira a couple of years ago... one little girl so many Piglets) Kira told me that Mama Piglet needed a bath in the washer. Piglet hadn't been washed in probably a year so I was pretty excited that Kira was initiating the bath. I encouraged her to let her other animals get washed also. I told her that we'd wash all of them, she'd put them in the washer and the dryer and they'd all be done by nap time. Kira was happy as long as she'd have them for her nap. Here's the process of the washing of Mama Piglet. (Who she knows is a boy and reminds me to say him/his when talking about him instead of her/she even though its "mama" Piglet)

A cleaner happier Piglet (Kira agrees he needs another bath to get all the way clean but she thought we should give it a few days.. I agreed)

Wow, what a cute post. I used to love washing my "blankie" when I was little. Kira is so cute!

I missed watching the Office with you guys last night! But I did have fun with my family. (: We'll plan on next week!! And we need to get together soon - I feel like I haven't seen you in a while! Stupid being busy.

So very cute. It is a big event when you have to wash their favorite animals. I have somehow convinced Noah that Pal loves to get a bath. And the dryer is like a roller coaster and it is really fun. I love how you took a picture of the process of the bath. Very fun post

Great documentation of such an event for her. Mya hates to wash her favorite blanket, but loves it when it is all dry and warm. I am sure some of her animals could use a bath...
