Tall Friends for a Growing Girl

Somehow along the short road of Lynlee's existence in this world giraffes have become her theme animal. Don't ask me how it happened because we just discovered this for ourselves! The other day Chris and I were playing with Lynlee with some of her toys and Chris pointed out that she has a lot of giraffes. They just keep popping up everywhere with this little girl! Personally we think it's cute, a bit more original than all the teddy bears that covered my shelves when I was young.
I've been on the hunt for a good floor mat with dangling toys for her for a few days now. She's to the point where if you hold a toy up in front of her she'll just stare at it for the longest time and then try reaching for it. If the reach is successful and she gets a good hold on it she attempts to drag it to her mouth (it's really cute to watch her determination). While I love that she's now to this stage in life, my arm doesn't necessarily agree since it has to do all the work - this is what led me to my hunt. While searching ksl yesterday I came across the perfect one! A little jungle themed floor mat with a big giraffe holding up part of the cross-bar section that holds the toys. In honor of our little girl's animal theme that has started we snatched it up for just $9. Score! The whole family has been enjoying it over the past day since we've had it so I think it was a particularly wise investment.

Lynlee testing it out for the first time
Daddy making sure it's entertaining enough for her. "It is" he declared :p

Zack investigating all this business including Zoe (who was still hiding underneath).

They hung out together for a bit this morning. Cute :)

And here are a few more pictures of Lynlee and her other various giraffe friends.






Whenever I hold this one up to her she always tries to eat it!
