The Story Of Rude Off and Head Lifting

Meet Rude Off


He was purchased two years ago at a thrift store.  His nose would light up and he would sing his theme song when you pushed his belly.  Rude Off has been attached to this little girl since the day that he came home with us.


She grabs on to both sets of legs and makes him fly through the air just like the movie.  He sleeps next to her all night long.  He gets stuffed into her purse. Poor Rude Off.  He's been through the washer so many times and gets thrown around all day long.  His nose no longer lights up, but his song still plays.

Rude Off has been making trips to see little Carter.  Little Carter doesn't understand what's so special about Rude Off, but maybe he will one day. For right now, all that Carter can concentrate on is lifting his head while he's on his tummy, and guess what....he's finally starting to do it!!  You have to lay him on his elbows, because he doesn't know how to move those into position yet, but he can lift his head for at 30 second intervals while he's propped on his elbows now.  Go little C!
