Time to clean out Eva's crib?

Anyone who's ever retrieved Eva from her crib after a nap knows she likes to sleep with a few friends. Well I just put her down for a nap and as per usual she's doing roll call before she drifts off. Here's what I'm listening to on the monitor:

Eva: Baby Alice!
imaginary baby alice voice: here!
Eva: Elmo!
imaginary elmo voice: here!
Eva: Kelsey! (her other baby)
imaginary Kelsey voice: here!
Eva: Elmo too (another elmo different from the first one mentioned)
imaginary Elmo too voice: here!
Eva: girasse!
imaginary girrafe voice: here!
Eva: Tebby bear!
Imaginary teddy bear voice: here!
Eva: Kissord!
Imaginary clifford the big red bear voice: here
Eva: Elmo too! (different from one and 2 elmos mentioned)
imaginary 3rd elmo voice: here!
Eva: Baby brett
imaginary baby brett voice: here
Eva: Big Pooh!
imaginary big pooh voice: here
Eva: baby pooh!
imaginary baby pooh voice: here

Is is time to purge the crib of some of eva's stuffies? Yay or Nay. It's NOT a king size crib.

Davey's friends stay on the floor. He's in a twin sized bed with a bed rail, so it was easy to do.. LOL

LMAO! What I wouldn't give to be there to hear roll call! I love it..I say let her crib continue to be the party pad that it is!

This is all true, I've seen it with my own eyes! I've even heard the roll call. And when you actually take her out of the crib and carry her down the stairs you have to take at least 3 of her friends in your arms along with her. It's quite a perilous journey down a long flight of stairs but Eva requires obedience.

I vote NAY... Keep yer mitts off her stuff.... In 20 years, she'll be on a psychiatrist's couch and blame it all on you. She will know what's missing so don't touch it !!

Wow! I think you should start ADDING toys, actually, and see just what kind of memorization skills Eva really has!!!
Also, FILM THAT and send it to America's Funniest Videos - you could win the $25K!!!

LOL!!!!!!! Hannah does the same thing. She also tells them stories and asks them questions. One day I heard from the monitor, "Cookie (Cookie Monster), you gotta meet Mommy and Daddy...You gonna love them!" Hannah doesn't have as sizable a stash as Eva does, though. She booted Cookie and Rocket out recently and Blue and Baby Sarah are still amongst her favs right now. I say, keep those suckers in...you're only going to make that little adorable child of yours mad...and who wants that??? NOT ME!!!

Based on a recent story I heard about a two year old... those friends will create a soft landing for when she climbs out of her crib. Until that time, wouldn't we all like to be surrounded by such friends?

NAY
