the wee one likes warmth

The Smallest Short Person likes to be warm.  I made him and his Momma some extra receiving blankets because they were going through them so fast.  Even though it is unseasonally warm here, at times, he likes two.  This just means laundry does not have to be done so often.  I started with a very soft piece of flannel, 36 by 39 inches and took deep hems down the sides.  In a couple hours, I had seven new receiving blankets made.  I have fabric for two more which the Tall Short Person does not really like but they would be great for extras as Grandlady and Grandpa's house.

Here he is on one.  Playing with his momma.

Then of course there are the smiles.  Especially when he is warm and his tummy is full.  Or Grandpa is telling him stories of the dragonrider he will be and the type of sword Grandpa is going to forge him to fight Jaberwockies and protect Chupacabras.  That is Grandpa for you!
