Sock Monkey, E's alter ego, much like BB is mine, enjoys his time in the city on the weekends. As there is no point bringing him out and about the rest of the week (he is mute sans E:), the stuffed socks are a little wild come the weekend. Here, he enjoys waiting for a downtown sub ride...
As a stuffed friend sidenote: I've noticed P has a perfect warning signal if E or I are overly "parenty." You know, when you're having fun with Halloween candles and the kid is all caught up in the joy of it all and you begin babbling about fire safety in an exhausting and unnecessary fashion? P, typically happy to hear our thoughts, will interrupt, completely ignoring our blathering, and address his two best stuffed friends in an unusually loud voice, filled with the glee he isn't interested in extinguishing. "Sock Monkey, do you see the candles?" I love that he has such a pristine path to play with us - call out our alter egos and quiet the babbling begetters. Really useful road signs on this parenting path....
