The other day I was cleaning out toys from Blake's bed. His assortment of spiderman, frogs, books, monkeys, cars and a baby bottle was quickly crowding him out of his queen sized bed. So, I cleaned out and thought "baby bottle?!?!" first to go! He had never talked about it, asked for it, mentioned it, E.V.E.R., until I moved it that is. How can kids sense these things? That night, Brian and I tucked him into bed, came upstairs and within 2 minutes Blake said "mommy, where is Baby Monkey's bottle?" I said, "baby monkey's bottle? what does it look like" and he proceeding to describe to me the baby bottle I had taken. I gave it back to him and closed his door. I suddenly had an urge to peek and see if Blake was feeding Baby Monkey his bottle. I expected to see him feeding him, BUT I did not expect him to have his little chair pulled up right in front of his fish tank, the blue light on, holding baby monkey and feeding him a bottle "seaside". I said "oh, Blake, how sweet...do you do this a lot?" Blake said "yes, every night".
We had no idea.
