Sometimes I forget how much Gavin knows. He started talking early and his first sentence at 15 months was "don't do dat!" Just as clear as can be.
So today I was trying to get Gavin to eat his spaghetti. He wants a ding dong for his dessert and knows there's two left. I told him he needed to eat fast or someone would eat them. He thought for a second and asked if Jakob and Andy were going to eat them. I told him maybe a monkey would eat them.
He thought again for a second and started eating pretty fast.
G: Mommy, there are no monkeys in the house.
M: They could come through the front door.
G: Monkeys only eat bananas.
M: Well what if they want a Ding Dong?
G: They only like bananas!!
M: Well then maybe a cow.
G: Cows only eat leaves. No giraffes do.
M: How do you know giraffes eat leaves?
G: I don't know. Cows say MOOOOO. Mommy say Moo(he wanted me to put food in his mouth).
A few minutes later he decided he better hurry and eat so that the monkeys won't come. Guess it WAS the monkeys!!
