I've been inadvertantenly setting Linus up to be unsure about the difference between giraffes and elephants. Apparently, I can't seem to keep these two mammals straight these days! Or, perhaps I think giraffes are elephants in disguise? Either way, I keep catching myself referring to all of his giraffe toys as elephants. Oddly, I haven't had the opposite issue. Why? I have absolutely no idea.
Whatever it is, I can't seem to stop, even when I am actively putting all my brain power into remembering the proper name for those long-necked, brown and yellow animals every time I reach for Sophie. And, sometimes, it
still comes out as "elephant".
Hopefully, I'll do better at teaching him the rest of the animals!

I once spent a day referring to our male cat as Sophie without realizing it. Baby brain?? That's what I'm claiming!
I'm also rather concerned that if this entire generation of kids ever meet a giraffe they're going to try and chew on it...
