    Haha, Isabel just saw me publishing this entry and pointed saying "capilly!"

    Very cute! The Very Hungry Caterpillar’s one of those timeless classics I think…I loved it, and will be passing the love onto my own kids one day.

    Capilly! How cute! :D Okay I’m guessing that would be the caterpillar’s official name? :p

    Awww, cuuuute. :D I love the Hungry Capitiller. I mean, Caterpillar. Caterpillar is a REALLY strange name, now that I think about it.

    @Kitty: Capilly is the closest a 1yr old can get to caterpillar I guess ;)

    My houndies would love a Capilly – they’ve already adopted (read: stolen) 3 novelty draught excluders – a 1.2m long cuddly toy sounds right up their street! XD

    She loves him/her too, when she throws herself face down onto it and "Ahhh" loves it up it make me laugh bless her.
    I think you picked the perfect present for her birthday. :)

    That’s so adorable; I bet she has lots of fun with it, too. Just reading about you all is so cute. :)

    Ooh, we sold (or sell) them at my old workplace. It used to get destroyed by kids though. Isabel is lucky to have one of her own :)

    That’s adorable! Saving time by not commenting on both this and the cake entry (which I also liked).

    It’s going to be weird when, eventually, there’ll be kids who DON’T have memories of the Very Hungry Caterpillar.

    I loved that book. I still have my copy in storage for if I ever change my mind about having children. I think I want my own Capilly
