Justin - partially explained...

The story of how we came to own two of these weird animal hooded blankets.  We took a trip to the store 5 and Below.  Each boy was allowed to pick one thing to buy.  Right away, Ezra picked out the polar bear blanket.  Justin picked some pirate pack with a spear and eye patch.  I confirmed with Justin a ton of times that he didn't want something else, especially not what Ezra had.  20 minutes later we were home and Justin was in tears.  He hated what he picked and desperately wanted an animal blanket.  He was inconsolable.  Once Justin gets fixated on something, it is hard to redirect him.  I did not want to go back to the store - so I caved and found a similar one on Amazon.  Two days later the brown one arrived.  Somehow, Justin convinced Ezra to switch and finally they were both happy.  They played with them for about a week and now they lay in a pile in the corner of their room.  It is a good thing they are both cute!
