Hui-Hui is a very passionate thumb-sucker. At night sometimes I hear him working it so hard in his crib I worry for the thumb's safety. It is, after all, the only thumb he has!
When He sucks his thumb, he prefers having something to hold onto. The very best thing right now seems to be Baby Eyeore's tail. But if Eyeore isn't around he is not that particular. Above I have a few pictures I snapped on Sunday afternoon to show some of the things he will use for what I like to call: Thumb Snuckers!
Crayons are a particular favorite, and are actually used more for this purpose than coloring. He is starting to let us play with the bumble-bee finger puppet, but usually if he sees it, he will want to have it and immediately put it to work as a "snucker". In a pinch he will grab a fold of his shirt, and I have even seen him use a scrap of paper.
