Austin has two imaginary friends, Peetee and Pookoo. I have always heard that imaginary friends are a sign of intelligence (in childhood anyway, it is a whole other issue if we have them as adults!). I don't know if the sign of intelligence thing is true or not, but I choose to believe it as I had an imaginary friend when I was little too. She lived in corners. I wonder whatever happened to her...Austin's friends are around his age we think, although this changes every time we ask about them. Sometimes they are little and can fit in his hand, and sometimes they are as tall as Austin so he can play baseball with them. We are not sure where he got the names for his friends, or when they became a part of his life for that matter. We know they have been around for several months, I am pretty sure before Aubrey was born. Peetee and Pookoo can be pretty ornery little friends, they have often messed up his room and lost his toys. They have been known to spill Austin's drink and have been blamed for Austin's bodily functions. Since Aubrey has been here he has not talked about them near as much. I wonder if it is a coincidence that now Aubrey is the one who loses his toys and messes up his room. Hmmmm...how convenient.

I have heard the same when it comes to imaginary friends. Jacob hasn't said he has imaginary friends but does wake up saying No sometimes.
Were you seriously up posting at 3:30 in the morning?? That is so cute that he has his friends. I don't think I ever did, but my sis did. It was a girl named Lulu, and even though she was not a product of my mind to begin with, I saw her as a chubby little Hawaiian girl! LOL :) She played under the lilac bush w/us. Have you ever watched Drop Dead Fred? That is such a great movie about imaginary friends! Hope you guys had a great weekend! We got snow again--surprise, surprise! xo Love ya!
