Mallory The Monkey, made by Infantino, quickly became one of my son's favorite toys. I discovered the toy by accident- during a shopping trip to Meijer, I forgot to bring in a toy for Caiden to play with while I shopping and it wasn't long until Caiden's patience wore out and I needed to find something quick to entertain him. We rushed over to the toy aisle and this toy caught my eye because it was colorful and could be hooked to his car seat. Caiden immediately fell in love with it, he was grabbing at it and loved running his fingers through the hula skirt. It was the first time I really noticed Caiden taking interest in a toy and trying to grab it so of course I had to buy it. We've since renamed the toy simply "Monkey" and he has become a part of our family in a sense. Monkey goes everywhere with us, on our trip to Lake Tahoe Monkey was with us and he was quickly known by other passengers on the plane sitting near us. When Caiden would start to fuss, we'd bring out Monkey and Caiden would instantly start to smile and baby talk to Monkey. I'm not sure what Caiden is thinking when he sees Monkey, but I'm pretty sure it is something about the pleasure of seeing a reliable friend who is always there when you need him. Definitely a must have toy that I highly recommend!

Porter started taking interest in other things around that time too. He has a little red crab toy and would always smile when we brought it out, and if we made sounds with it, he thought it was great. They have such amazing minds, I'd love to hop in and see what they are thinking. Have you heard about introducing a "lovey"? I have friends you have and really like it.
