Grandma Connie and Grandpa Charles brought Joe a Spiderman pillow and blanket when they came at Thanksgiving. The pillow is in the shape of Spidey's head, and has been a permanent fixture in Joe's bed since it arrived. Tragically, the blanket has to be washed. Julie insists on it being washed at least once a week, and more often if Joe insist on dragging it across the dog hair strewn floor. Joe no doubt feels Julie is a drag on this point, but frankly, the feeling is mutual. When the Spidey blanket was last in the wash, and the Angry Birds blanket was on Joe's bed, Joe announced that he wanted the dog blanket next. So this weekend, when Julie took the Angry Birds blanket to wash, she got out the dog blanket. Tonight, when Joe asked plaintively where the Spidey blanket was--!!!--Julie reminded him of his request for the dog blanket. Joe laughed and then said next, he wanted maybe the Thomas blanket. When Julie said "What about Spidey?!", Joe said "I'm gonna do an ABCD pattern." Presumably this means Spidey, dogs, Thomas, and. . .Angry Birds??? Joe is working on patterns at schools, but we are way beyond colored squares with this rotation.
