Meet Perry

Grandson Finny, who just turned four, is a big fan of Perry the Platypus. His parents cooked up a Perry birthday party theme for him that included Perry cupcakes for a daycare treat, a Perry birthday cake with Perry plates and Perry napkins and Perry tablecover. You get the picture, a Perry picture.

Perry, a character in the Phineas and Ferb Disney television show, has two personas. In spy mode, he is crime fighting Agent P who zips and flies around in an upright posture and wears a dapper black fedora. His less active pose is on all fours as an orange and teal blue, flat tailed pet with two web feet. Kids love Perry.

So-o-o, this Perry, crocheted, sewn, and stuffed, became a birthday project for Finny. Mom Liesl picked out the pattern and the yarn colors. Grandma WJ did the crafting. Perry The Platypus, a.k.a. Agent P, is now doing the charming.
