Mon Amie, Sophie

Finley has a few toys that he seems to like more than others (cowdog being one of them), but I'm curious at which ones he'll stick with for the long haul. You know, the ones we'll dread losing or have to buy back up duplicates of. I know he's too young for much object attachment, but he is a science experiment to some extent :) and I like to "toy" with my little lab rat. Last week, we bought the much-adored, over-priced, rubber giraffe (from France) named Sophie to see if Finley would take to her. Despite the price tag, Sophie stands only about 7 inches tall and appears to be nothing more than a dog squeeze toy. However, babies all over the world (celebrity babies included) have come to love holding and chewing on Sophie. Finley's now at the point where he can hold onto things more easily and is trying to chew everything he can cram into his mouth, so I thought it was time for him to have a Sophie. From what I can tell, he certainly digs her and is finding all sorts of ways to grasp onto her and see what her face and feet taste like. See for yourself!

Will Sophie be a friend for life or just a one week stand, who knows?
