the next generation

When Drew was a boy he had a beloved stuffed Snoopy named Ninny {pronounced:  nee-nee}.  He loved that little dog and took him everywhere.  As the story goes one day Ninny was disgusting beyond the imaginable, so Drew's mom subbed in a brand new Ninny while Drew slept.  In the
morning he ran downstairs exclaiming "Ninny got a bath!" - and so he had.

Well, this Christmas Asher got a very special gift from his Grandma Wilkinson - a Ninny of his very own!  Actually, it isn't only a Ninny, but a Santa Ninny!

 
Can you spot him hanging out with Teddy?


Asher loves him already. 


I love that he has something special to share with his Dad's childhood - even if it is Ninny 2.0.  Ninny got a bath!  And a wardrobe change!


Ninny may be dressed for Christmas, but we'll be leaving him out all year long.  He can remind us to treat every day like it's Christmas {Elf, anyone? Love that movie!}

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa W!
