We have mentioned before that Spencer doesn't suck his thumb or use a pacifier. He does have one item that serves as the source of his comfort......a small bear blanket that has been named Goober. Goober is generally only used when he is in his crib or on extended car trips but he has a satin trim around the edges and frankly, that's where the comfort is found. He grabs a soft corner of the blanket and shoves it into his mouth. To the untrained eye, he looks like he has just been gagged but when you get close, you can hear him just sucking away on the material.
As he took his nap today I took the above picture. As soon as I took it he rolled over onto his side. Asleep and with his eyes closed, he felt around for Goober, found him and located the corner so that he could put it back into his mouth. It's pretty entertaining to watch him do all of this while being sound asleep!
