When Michael was a baby, we nicknamed him Monkey. (And this was way before Tori Spelling made this fashionable.) Actually, the monkey chair was one of this first thing we bought for Michael.
Even thought his room is no longer a jungle theme, we can't bring ourselves to get rid of it.
Likewise, I bought this outfit while I was still pregnant. We never found out if I was having a boy or a girl so all the clothes I bought were gender neutral.
On Sunday, after we toured the new house, we took Michael to Target to pick out the decor for his new bathroom. When we first told him he could decorate his bathroom anyway he wanted he said, "I want monkeys!" And then he went to dinosaurs, and bugs, and a bunch of other themes.
But on Sunday, when the final decision had to be made, he picked Monkeys. Seemed only fitting.

I loved that set! Evan only wanted fish though.
Aww. That is adorable. Little boys are sometimes hard to decorate for, but monkeys are awesome. And that baby picture -precious!
cute stuff. we also call Owen monkey.
That is funny. Josh is a Monkey. I have been calling him that since day 1. Elijah is grasshopper. I am a lion, since I am a Leo. Melissa has two nicknames – butterfly and Cookie Monster
That is so neat! I absolutely love bathroom decor. Seriously.
