My pal Violet

Lilly has a new furry friend. Her name is Violet, and she is a purple stuffed dog manufactured by Leap Frog toys. It was given to us when Lilly was born, and because it said it was for use when 6 months and older, we put it up in her closet. When JJ was here, we went through her closet and pulled out the toys she can use now, and put away the clothes she can't fit into. And thus, that's how Lilly met Violet. And it was a great match.

Violet can be programmed, through a USB port, to say 'Lilly' and can also be personalized, as we set her favorite color ( green, it's mine), animal (dog, as she loves her bluish gray dog security blanket), and food (baby food), and Violet in a sing-songy way can recite all her favorites as well tell Lilly that she loves her! It's cute. Lilly has given her a hug, in the best way she can, and she has also tried to kiss or bite her nose, or probably both! But Lilly's face definitely lights up when she sees Violet. And I programmed some songs into Violet, like 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" and "Jingle Bells" Though Mark thinks its not the appropriate time of year for Jingle Bells, but she can always use some Christmas music in March!
