pepe loves his baba. he loves sucking on it, with or without milkies. i think he will go to college with his baba in his pocket. when the baba is not on site, pepe loves to suck on his fingers - he puts all of them, except the thumb, into his mouth. i sucked my thumb, like most kids. my mom tells me that she sucked her fingers, just like pepe, so there you go, we have someone to blame for this. on a serious note, perhaps it is time to work on giving the baba up (our neighbours gave their babas to babies a long time ago, and they are so cute when they see pepe, their little faces get a frown on and they say "pepe has a bottle, give it to babies" and pepe says, "i no give it to babies, i using it". we also have to do some potty training. grandma suggested we get some underpants, as the diapers are too comfortable, even when full. we'll see. i can't imagine pepe taking a break from playing to sit on the potty, but we'll see.
