Ways to Use Your Unconventional Baby blanket

In the past week, the Boy has discovered about a dozen new uses for his Unconventional Baby blanket.

1.  He made a tent with it (a time honored tradition, of course). 
2.  He made me tie it around his neck like a cape, and then ran around in just his blanket and Captain America underpants, pretending to be an Avenger.  Yes, I took pictures. 
3. He swept the driveway with it.  Yes, this happened.
4. He wrapped his Mommy Turtle up in it so she didn't get cold.  Awwwww.
5.  He used it as a whip in the coffeeshop.
6.  He had a picnic on it.
7. He hid under it.  Didn't you know that it is -impossible- to see a child if they are hiding under a blanket?
8. He rolled in it and became a burrito boy.  His words.
9. He polished his new Lake Michigan rocks on it.
10.  He used it as a shield from the wind of the fan.  This was a terrifically fun game that I still don't quite understand.
11.  He used it to make a fairy house with.
12.  He snuggled it at bedtime, tiny little fingers rubbing at the silky edge in his sleep.  Which is nothing new, but still sweet enough to melt me, even after all this time.
