Jacob's "banana" obsession

Jacob is OBSESSED with banana. Banana the color that is, not the fruit. Although he does like those too. He has invented his own color system. Green is "apple", red is "strawberry" and of course "banana" is yellow. Pretty smart! I think it has to do with the fact that his favorite blanky is yellow and therefore it became his favorite color, but at any rate, he loves everything "banana" and he will shout out everything he sees in that color. Banana trucks, jeeps, cereal bowls, suckers, foods, clothes, crayons, etc. And you better not decide to have something banana if he wants it...you'll break his tender little heart!

Note the banana shoes...

 and the banana tube...

and the banana slide he HAD to go down. The green one would not do.

See his banana cast?

And our amazing nursery leaders who brought him a giant banana sucker when he broke his arm! (And because they are just that cool, they brought one to all of them. But the banana one was for Jacob!)
