Update
So let me tell you how things have been going since I’ve been laid off…
Thursday: My last day was last thursday. Zoe had her bloody accident at the toy store.
Friday: I got a ticket for talking on my cell while driving.
Monday: Zoe knocked my point and shoot of the dining room table and the lens is broken.
Wednesday: Zoe decided that while we were taking a bath that my cell phone also needed to take a bath.
Good times. Hahaha… Overall besides Trouble breaking my stuff it’s been great. I’ve been super busy but it’s great spending time with her, fighting with her, playing with her, spending 24/7 with her, and just watching her develop into this lil ball of energy. It’s weird, I watch her and I think she’s so much like me. I mean she may look like her father but she acts like me. Dude, how sad is it that when you run into people and they say things like “Omigod she looks just like C!” and you whip out your baby photo in your back pocket and go “What about now?! You still think she looks like him?!!!”
I mean…I don’t do that.
So moving right along far away from my crackpipe world…. I just wanted to share photos of some cute things that have fallen into Zoe’s closet & toy collection.

How friggin cute are the mocs?! They’re by Trumpette. I thought they only made socks!? Thanks Angie Eemoh!
The pink mary-janes we just got at Baby Cottons. She’s gonna wear this to her birthday party.
I finally got her a dress to change into after we’re done with all the hanbok stuff. I think it’s cute how it matches my theme. It was totally not planned ok. And I can’t believe they make lil garment bags. How cute is that?

So yesterday Zoeski and I were at the mall and we pass by one of those stand alone booths and it had all these really cute pillows with animal heads. They’re called My Pillow Pets. Omigod, I picked one up and it was like LAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! SUPER SOFTO! Like as if it were faux chinchilla or something. I was sold. I couldn’t decide between the duck or the pig so I put both of them in front of her. She smiled at the pig and reached for him. Pig it was. Now to name him…
Another cute thing is that they have this lil velcro tab at the bottom to fold them up to make a body. When I do this I start making snorting noises and have the pig come charging at her and she starts giggling like a lil monkey. So cute. I’ll try to get it on video. I’m kinda wishing I picked the duck cause when I snort too much I start coughing like I just had my first cigarette.
I hid this in my closet as one of her birthday presents but the lil busybody found it.
It’s the Fisher Price Rainforest Peek-A-Boo Waterfall Soother. She seems to like it. I got it for her so that she could grow to enjoy sleeping on her own or if she wakes up early she can occupy herself with it so mommy and daddy can sleep a lil longer. Last week when I tried to hook it on her crib she thought I was trying to take it away and she started bawling. Geeze Zoe! Have a cow! I don’t want it you selfish brat. I’m an adult! I just want your ultra soft pig pillow you ingrate.
You notice how I laid out the yoga mat in my closet for her to have a lil area to play on? So sad. Last week she finally took over the entire living room.

Oooh happy almost 1st bday Zoe! I like the waterfall soother… I think I’m gonna get one for Jonah too
What happened at the toy store? I didn’t think the cops pulled anyone over for talking on the cell while driving… seriously everyone STILL does it – I see it ALL the time! Sucks!
aww the shoes and dress are darling! i actually bought a dress from janie and jack for my “future” daugther. nutso?! i have a pillow like that too from korea but that piggy looks ULTRA soft. m-u-s-t get one for me!
i was thinking about getting the soother too…hmm, if zoe likes it i hope huddy likes it!
So cute! I was wondering why there was a Yoga mat in your closet… thought maybe that might be the only place of privacy for your meditations on what GREAT things to make next!
lol.
btw, is your pillow the big or small size?
being your daughter is really lucky, you really spoil her. i was thinking of getting that fisher-price waterfall soother for my newborn too. I’m glad I’ll be having a girl too so I could dress her up in all those pink floral colors.
i want that pig!! And that dress is really pretty! Can’t wait to see Zoe in it!
girl stuffs are super cute! i think my husband would have a fit if i bought those mary janes for matthew.
okay. i’m sold on the pillow pet. heading to the check-out and pay for the comfy panda bear.
@hudson_umma - it’s the big size. you wanna see zoe next to it so you have an idea?
@hkcho - haekyung get it at the mall. it’s in one of the booths near the carousel!
Hahahaha! Kids! It’s like we have to watch them 61 seconds in a min…..or else things will break or go missing. You sound like you are really enjoying your time together.
Stink! Now I just bought one for my sister’s baby. I’ll post what’s been going on–no good news actually. But I LOVE this pillow thing. Why do you have to post such cute things?! Gees, Zoe is such a loved and spoiled little girl.

EXPENSIVE DEMAGE….Mommy has to be more careful…………
@PetiteMandoo - only if you have time..i know you’re extremely busy!
Awww the clothing is soOO pretty> Love the silver shoes and the dress. I can’t believe you put a play mat in your closet LOL. Yah your house is going to be Zs house from now on, not YOURS. SIGH.
I think that i can say that C FULLY took over our house right when she turned one. Our house looks like a kindergarten. You think im kidding but im not :”(
My gosh you should be a party designer or a party planner. Everything is BEAUTIFUL!
seriously… i rarley sign onto xanga (thanks to one liner status updates on facebook) but only reason i do sign-on to xanga is to read up on Zoe! You got me hooked~
I was wondering about the peek-a-boo rainfall soother since i was thinking about getting one for Desmond. Plus, I needed to get a pillow so now I know where to get it. Thanks Susan for all your cool recs. *virtual hug*
oh.. i second juniper_breeze’s comment. since being laid-off (i’ll be joining you soon too) have you thought about starting your own business? You def. should!!! I’ll gladly advertise all about you out here in so cal.
That dress is adorable……I hope you take a lot of photos at her party to share with us Zoe stalkers. I’ve loved following her first year journey of growth. I hope to have a little girl of my own one day soon. She does look like her dad but much cuter so you have nothing to worry about.
do they make that dress in adult sizes???
jk, but I hope your days get better!
those silver loafers are so cute! I’ve been itching to get T some silver shoes, but the opportunity never arose. hey, does that think baby sippy cup leak?
she’s gonna look so precious!! i love the shoes and her dress. i actually want a pair for myself!!
the shoes are adorable and that dress..how cute! I didn’t know they had garment bags that small either!!
I love the Moccs. OMG they’re so fuckin cute. I want them!
@so_droll80 - sometimes only when i use the handles.
@parkster7831 - i got you hooked on zoeski? hahah how so?
What a fetching birthday party outfit for Young Trouble! I can’t wait to hyperventilate over my own in nine months!
Cute shoes, pretty dress, and cute pillow!! I love the cow one for me! hehe!
Such a cute dress! Zoe’s gonna look beautiful on her big day! Hey at least people don’t mistaken you for the NANNY like me lol!
@injeannieous - she fell, hit the inside of her upper lip on the edge of the table and then fell backwards and hit her head on the floor.
@PetiteMandoo - Ouch! Hope the accident didn’t leave a scar on her pretty little face
I keep telling Hubby that he’s lucky that Matthew is a boy…I don’t spend as much $$ on his Matthew’s clothes. Girl’s clothes are so much cuter!!
I always thought Zoe was more like you in personality even though I never met your Hubby.
aren’t those pillow pets awesome? hanson has three of them (got as gifts)….the cow, dog and frog. the pig is pretty damn cute so i might have to get him that, too!
ugh. those silver mocs are too frickin cute too. *sigh* i want a girl!!!!!
@PetiteMandoo - it’s because you write about your life as a mom and her life so interestingly here on xanga/facebook – i.e. her photo-comic strips. I love your striaght forward – tell it like it is – experience as a mom.
Plus, whenever i need a baby product recommendation or a design ideas, i come right to your site.
I wished we lived closer so that we can do play-dates… why does NJ and CA is far far away! ;p
@hudson_umma - POSTED GIRLFRIEND!
@parkster7831 - awwwwwwwww thanks! i think i write ok. hahaha i tell the hubs that people think i’m funny on xanga and he’s like LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSERS. hahahaha ahole bastage!
i think it’s weird when people actually listen to my reviews.
heck yeah i wish we lived closer. i wish a lot of the mommies lived closer. 8 (
