Goodnight Gorilla

Blake's new favorite night time book is Good night Gorilla. If you aren't familiar with the story it's about a zookeeper who tells all the animals goodnight and the gorilla steels his keys and lets all the animals out of their cages. They animals follow the zookeeper home and end up in his bedroom and say good night. The zookeepers wife then has to take them all back to the zoo. The gorilla still doesn't stay and ends up sleeping in the zookeepers bed. Anyway, it doesn't have many words, mainly just pictures that I explain to Blake. He starts giggling the minute I open the first page on this book! It's so adorable and precious. He gets so tickled by me explaining the pictures. He is such a book lover right now. He just can't get me to read enough. I've even started putting books in his crib and he'll wake up early and "read" them putting himself back to sleep, which is very nice! These are the little moments I want to last forever, the innocence of a child is so precious. Why do they have to grow up so fast!!!!
