Meet Growlers the tiger. He has been Nathaniel's best friend since the beginning, and I'm pretty sure he will be a part of our lives forever. Growlers is part of the Ty beanies babies pluffies line, and wouldn't you know, he is now retired. So, that means only way to replace Growlers is Ebay, which we recently had to do. I think we have had about 6 Growlers in our family now. Crazy how I can remember each one. lol We still have the original. He is beat up, and has a smell that no amount of washing can get out, but he is still the favorite. It has taken some time for Nathaniel to accept the two newest ones that joined us a couple months ago. And we have to have a few around for washing times and things like that.
Here is our trip down memory lane with Growlers.
Sleeping with Growlers around 6 months. It wasn't long after this that Nathaniel would not get out of bed without his tiger.
He can't sleep at all without Growlers now.
Couldn't have made it through the first haircut without Growlers.
Transitioning to toddler bed.
Right after Ethan came home with us.
Meeting Ethan for the first time.
He is always around. :)
Growlers at 2 years old.
There is a picture in the previous post of Nathaniel sleeping with Growlers at almost 4 years old.
I'm sure Growlers will be with us for many more years. If he ever does give him up, I'm going to have to put him in a shadow box or something. Maybe Nathaniel will take him to college. lol
