Trixie often hangs out in the background when stuff is going on in the house. I noticed she loves to collect toys for her bed. She makes a little pile of her favorites and sleeps with them. But I never see her putting them in her bed so I decided to watch and see how they ended up there.
It turns out Trixie is a bit of a thief. When she hears Wyatt rolling around, playing and tossing toys around the room, she goes in and sits quietly, keeping an eye on the toy she wants. Once that toy lands near her and Wyatt's not looking, she picks it up and leaves the room. She drops the toy off in her bed and comes back to see if there's another she wants.
I've noticed she does the same with socks. She'll go over to any laundry on the floor and check for socks. Then she'll pick out one or two and carry them back to her nest. She never chews on them and it's not an anxiety pattern. Apparently recently worn socks are just the thing for making bedtime groovy in Trixie's opinion.
