Monkey See, Monkey Do.

Noah has a tendency to wake up around 4:30/5:00 am in the morning looking for a bottle. For a while I tried to wean him from this feeding...but given that he is a little underweight we haven't pushed it too much and continue to give him a bottle in the early morning.

Now, usually David is already up around this time and watching the market, so when Noah is up and shoving his Nuby Sippy Cup in my face I usually call out for my hero: "DAVID...DAVID! We need a bottle!"

Then a bottle magically appears and Noah falls back asleep and I no longer have Noah sitting atop my chest with a bottle to my face like a mugger on the streets of New York.

Well...Monkey See. Monkey Do.

Noah has eliminated the middle man and has gone straight to the source. Now in the mornings he calls out into the dark for his Hero. His Deliverer. His Milkman..."DAY-MID! DAY-MID!"

First time he did it, it just cracked me up. Now, it's become a bit of an issue and sometimes David has to re-educate the little man and tell him to call him "Dada".
