Shockey...

I have to do a post about Shockey.

Who is Shockey? Shockey is Gunnar's favorite Webkinz stuffed animal, favorite possession... that is pretty much attached to him all day every day. He sleeps with him, sits next to him while we eat, goes in the bathroom with him, he rides in the car with us everywhere we go and even goes to school with Gunnar in his backpack every day he goes. Shockey is a white (well he's more of a gray color now) seal.

One night, months ago Lars took Gunnar to Shopko for some reason and Gunnar picked up Shockey and Lars told him he could walk around the store with him, but before they checked out he'd have to put him back. Well somehow (as Gunnar tells it) Daddy accidentally let him buy Shockey :).

 Gunnar absolutely LOVES Shockey!

 He has become just like Ashton's Lovey has always been to him.

He'll say to me a lot of times..."Isn't Shockey so cute Mom?" And Shockey has his own cute little unmistakeable voice too.

Gunnar thinks it's so funny to poke him out of his sleeve :)

 I often find Shockey watching over Gunnar while he sleeps :)... 

Going for a walk, of course Shockey came along :) 

And Shockey wanted to try out the vampire teeth after Halloween...

No clue where Gunnar came up with his name, but we sure love Shockey!
