Piggy

Piggy has become a beloved part of Emory's life over the last few months.  There was an immediate bond forged between Emory and Piggy, and Piggy has been the first and only stuffed animal required for sleep.  Piggy was a gift received at Emory's first Christmas from Eric, Christy and Dillon.  She has learned to say Piggy's name, so several times a day I hear "Pih?  Pih?"  Piggy leaves the crib each time Emory does and often he sits on the table while we're having meals.  I've learned to bring Piggy along for long car trips and definitely anytime we go out of town.  He has gone from a bright pink with gray spots and soft fluffy fur to sort of a dingy gray color all over with matted clumpy fur.  It is really time for Piggy to have a bath...but I can't seem to pry him out of her hands to get him in the washer!
