Taking away animals

For a while, we have struggled with getting Davis to stay in bed at bedtime.  I think he believes he is missing something and he ends up coming out of his bedroom a few times a night.  After coming out a few times, I'll often threaten to take away one of his stuff animals if he comes out again.  Tonight was one of those nights.  After a while, Davis walked out of his bedroom and brought me Eeyore in the kitchen, then went into Alex and Evan's room to see what mom was doing.  I was floored.
