Vicki's Jipi

We found a new toy for Vicki. She now has a little penguin that we named Jipi Japa after a store in Causeway Bay. After doing an internet search, I discovered Jipijapa (pronounced hipihapa) is actually a city in Ecuador renowned for making panama hats from the leaves of the Jipijapa plant. Okay no connection whatsoever but interesting just the same. Anyway we shortened the penguin's name to Jipi (with the "j' sound cause we just like it better). So now we ask, "Vicki where's Jipi?" She then grabs hold of that toy proceeds to chew off an arm. After about a day and a half of carrying Jipi everywhere I notice she has hidden the penguin. When I ask her where Jipi is she just looks at me and rolls over for belly scratches.
