Monkey & Giraffe conquered

Andrew has been engaged in an ongoing battle with the monkey & giraffe on his playmat for the past week. He desperately wants to grab hold of them and put them in his mouth, but has not yet developed the motor skills to coordinate this task on a regular basis. This fact has been very frustrating for Andrew. Today, to Andrew's great delight, he has had much greater success in this task and now loves to spend time on the mat holding both of them in his hands alternatively sucking on the feet of one animal or the other.

Mama helped out some here, the giraffe has been "liberated" from his rings overhead and is now having his head drool-cleaned by Andrew.
