Also, H's stuffed dog, Frank, lives on his night stand. The girls give him to H in the mornings he's home when they get up, as well as when he takes a rest. It is really cute, and Frank now has 2 companions: Francesca and Francine. They belong to Natalie and Elizabeth, respectively, and are of great importance in their bedtime routines.

I have my 'bozo' - a stuffed bunny I got from my grandma when I was 2ish.
Bozo went with me EVERYWHERE. School (when I was new and didn't have any friends), camp, Europe (high school band trip), college, etc. Bozo has had so many 'repairs' over the years, but eventually he started to fray & his stuffing was at risk of falling out, so I made him a 'suit' to wear from an old pair of purple sweatpants. That was in 4th grade and he's still wearing that suit.
Bozo is currently in a plastic display box on my dresser. I figure it's a safer spot for him than somewhere the dogs could get to him or he could get moldy.
I still sleep with my blankie and travel with it (carry-on only, because I am too scared to lose it). It's a great way to cover my eyes to block out light.
I also still have my teddy bear, but it is in a closet.

YES! I love my "Coola."
She's a stuffed bunny that my grandma made. I rubbed the ears down to threads; it was a comfort thing. She has a place of honor on a shelf in DS's room.

I still have my 2 Lollichops - a stuffed animal lamb. Lollichop was my favorite stuffed animal and a friend stole her during a slumber party. I was so distraught about it my parents bought be a new one. Two years after Lollichop 1 was stolen, my friend (well not so much my friend anymore) gave her back to me. I kept both although the reside in a plastic bin in the back of the closet.
Yep- I have a snoopy and bunny. They now live in my dresser. Snoopy was the same as bunny, except he had a blue body and a snoopy face instead of a bunny face. I was super creative at naming things.

My mom saved the dolls my grandmother made me when I was tiny. I also still have first cabbage patch kid. Ok, so I still have all of them and the hand made dolls and 1/2 of my stuffed animals. I also still have Teddy Ruxpin and Grubby including the tapes and books.

I have a stuffed animal that I still sleep with. It is the raccoon Meeko from Pocahontas. In the last few years he has stopped traveling with me though.
My family makes fun of me for this, but whatever. I think it's kind of weird that this is what I'm attached to since the movie came out when I was 9 so I couldn't have gotten this toy much before I was 8 (I think my grandma bought it for me before the movie was released.)
