Auntie Dresel got Sophie as a welcome present for Tristan the weekend of her surprise visit last May. Although I hadn't heard much of this giraffe then, I have since learned what a phenomenon she is now! Any time we bring her out, we get comments about how she's a reality TV star (made famous by the Kardashians), how their sister/friend/coworker has the same one, or just how cute his little giraffe is.
Now that he's at the age that he really loves playing, Sophie has become a fixture playmate while we're in the kitchen. (We have certain toys set up around the house for different things we're doing - living room, bedroom and kitchen toys - aahh, how life changes!)
Some days he likes to throw her around, especially if it means making mom bend down to pick her up 30 times while she's cooking. Sometimes he likes to see how much he can stuff her in his mouth (poor Sophie). But most times, he likes to just look at her and "pet" her gently. Here are some cute moments I captured the other day while he was helping mommy clean.
WOW! You are so lucky Tristan enjoys sitting in the high chair. Aubrey has a limit to how long she stays in the chair. Please let me know what kind that is. So cute also. Gotta love Sophie.
