The newest members of our family: The Monkeys. Athan has latched on to these two adorable guys (apparently named Gus, and the original Monkey). I've pushed every "cuddly thing" I could find his direction, and finally gave up on it. Then he randomly scoots into Morgan's room a couple of weeks ago, finds the matching monkeys, and that's it.
It's actually been a great thing. Suddenly he is the "big brother" to these guys, and it's helping his behavior. He sleeps with them, and he doesn't scream when we leave the room anymore. He'll explain to his monkey's that they have to "take one bite," or "don't hit." So I say, "Welcome, Gus and Monkey." :)

Wonderful!
love the name Gus!!
That's great - it sounds like these two friends are just what the little guy needed!
Adorable...wish I could see him "talk" to his monkeys! So sweet!

There used to be a song by "The Monkeys" and it went, "Hey hey we're the monkeys. . . " If you know it I think you should have the monkeys sing it to Athan. It could be their theme song!
