It all started before Noah was born and my little sister Jenny crocheted him this blanket (below). I loved it! It quickly became his favorite, and to this day he still sleeps with it. When I was pregnant with Bailey Zach was just getting to the age where he wanted things that Noah had. He really wanted a "yellow blankie" like Noah. So I set to work trying to duplicate the "yellow" blanket except I changed one color. I switched out the blue for red. Then I thought I should just go ahead and make Bailey one. So I switched out the blue for pink. So once we found out we were having a boy I decided to make Max one. Noah came to me one day after hearing me talk about making more blankets and said that I should make a new one for him because his old one was to small for him. So....I have spent the last 4 months making Noah a new one with the origional blue stripe and Max one with dark brown instead of the blue. I am so pleased. They turned out pretty cute!
