My friend Sally and her adorable 6 month old son Will came to meet Lucy and brought her "Sophie!" Thank you so much! This little giraffe is all the rage with moms and babies and it has received rave reviews! Check it out!
I found some info about Lucy's new friend. I bet Mimi will like Sophie's french background!
"Part of the appeal of Sophie is her European lineage. She is from France (a sticker on her packaging depicts Sophie in front of the Eiffel Tower), created in 1961 by "a certain Monsieur Rampeau," and she was an instant success in that country, where chewing on a Sophie has become a right of passage for French babies. Sophie didn't come to America until 2000, when Helene Dumoulin-Montgomery began to import her. Dumoulin-Montgomery was a new mother in Orange County and a recent transplant from France, where she grew up with a Sophie of her own. (There she costs 6.90 euros before tax, about half the price in the U.S.)"
(Sally...thanks for keeping Lucy up with latest trend!)

Mais oui, c'est les francais qui comprennent les enfants....In France, families bring their dogs and babies everywhere and so I am not surprised the coolest baby toy is French. Oh I wish I could visit France soon....
Ok, baby B#2 needs one...where do I buy one. :)
Thank you for the wonderful pictures each day. xo
I cannot get over how big and beautiful she has gotten since I saw her last week!! I am so excited to have Katie see her and spend the day with you ladies tomorrow! :)
