The Life and Times of Fluffy


I hope you all don't think it is easy being a sheep.  Sheep have all sorts of responsibilities.   Now that Little Buddy and Fluffy are best friends, the work load for Fluffy has increased tenfold!  Fluffy thought it was tough having all those little lambs running every which way.  They are nothing compared to a little boy!  Little Buddy thinks Fluffy is the greatest, and thankfully Fluffy seems to feel the same.  Not many sheep would wear a shirt, while listening to a concert played by a boy with pants on his head.

Little Buddy thought Fluffy looked fantastic!


Fluffy has to help Little Buddy watch his new favorite show, Imagination Movers, every morning during breakfast.


Fluffy has to read books at nap time and bedtime just like Little Buddy does.  Fluffy's favorite book is Goodnight Gorilla.  It is a bestseller!  There are not many words so Fluffy can read it all by herself!


Fluffy has to take naps, too.  I am sure by nap time she is exhausted from all of her morning activities.  Sometimes she naps in the crib, sometimes on the floor, but she is always covered up in a blanket.


After nap it is back to work.  Riding on the blue rocking horse is lots of fun.


Fluffy spends most of her time right here on this truck getting pushed all over the house.  Well to be honest she is on the truck, off the truck, on the truck and off, over and over again.  She is such a good sport, always smiling, never complaining.  Fluffy has watched bath time, and almost got shoved into the shower one day.  Lucky for us the water was not running, we have to be careful that Fluffy does not felt!  Who knew that when Gracie surprised me with Fluffy in December, that this sweet little sheep would find a little boy right here in Florida to be best friends with?  She is always ready to go, loves to be hugged, snuggled and played with. Tomorrow she is going to Physical therapy with us, not only is she a good friend but a great motivator, too!  Busy times for a stuffed friend.

  6. What a busy busy Fluffy!!! It is so good of her to spend her time with Buddy. You know perhaps she feels just a teensy weensy little bit displaced with not having her little lambs to care for and Buddy fills that space.

    Love these pics!

  11. Oh the girls are going to love this post! I have photos ready to post of them watching Little Buddy with Fluffy and the swing set :) Two of the lambs came to visit me today. They have a new Nanny Taffy to help herd them.
    I'm headed to CA to visit with my sisters for a few days...driving with my youngest daughter and son in law starting at 4am Sat. morning. Love you Mere and am so glad Little Buddy and Fluffy are enjoying each other. The lambs are a delightful addition to our household, too :)

  24. Hi Meredith! you are crazy cute! My kids used to love running around with their pants on their heads. They used to pretend they were some sort of warriors. Always fun to watch. Fluffy BaaBaa is doing a fantastic job!
    As are you...

  25. What a lovely post Meredith, I'm not surprised that Little Buddy and Fluffy have adopted one another. Fluffy is patient and accommodating and Little Buddy is playful and inquisitive. A perfect combination for good friends.

  26. Fluffy is really a hard working compassionate and nurturing sheep, not unlike yourself!

    But seriously? How much do I love the pants on the head? That took me back to some really good times. I'm glad Little Buddy is making some too. Maybe later this weekend to shake off the cranky pants, I'll just put 'em on my head ;) all the best!

  36. Isn't it great when little people find a new best friend. Fun to play with and also to help with "scary" things like pulling off band aids, or loud air conditioner ducts in car parks, or just for cuddling in bed at night.

    Fluffy has become a true and faithful friend and makes one little boy very happy :=)

  47. My Very Dear Meredith~
    I am literally choked up as I write this to you. I have scrolled through your most recent posts to see what I have been missing out on while my crazy life has kept me away from blogging lately and I am so very touched by your great big soft heart and warm spirit. I mean that, I really do, from the bottom of my heart and soul.
    The way you love your Little Buddy, Max, your family and your trees. I can't even express to you how much you have touched me today {once again}. Consider yourself hugged real tight from me {and that wet spot on your shoulder is a tear from me}.
