Fondness For Pink
Friday night I put Zoe down at 9:45ish. She just wanted to do all these things with her new doll before she went to bed (swaddle, feed, etc). So after she fell asleep I took Mr Pink and Mr Blue and threw them in the wash. The hubs and I stayed up late to watch Star Trek (the most recent one that came out). He passed out half way in so I finished it alone. After the movie ended we crawled into bed next to Zoe. I remember saying “I hope she doesn’t wake up looking for Mr Pink.” That was at 2am. At 3am I hear “Umma!….Umma!….Pink?” Shit!!!
Me: Zoe Mr Pink is taking a bath right now downstairs.
Zoe: Pink?
Me: You go to sleep now and you can see him tomorrow morning. Okay?
I mean it was pretty dark but I could still make out her face since it was only a few inches away from mine. She had the cutest, saddest expression. She was frowning, her lips were quivering, and I could tell she was going to start tearing cause she started whimpering quietly. She was just so deeply saddened by this bit of information. You could tell she was trying hard to keep it together. It was so cute. Oh be still my ovaries.
I sang her itsy bitsy spider while promising her a better tomorrow with her newly washed friend.
We got her posse in the morning.

so so cute. pink looked great at the party.
what about blue? he’s not a bff?
@tubecozy - no, he’s just backup.
@PetiteMandoo - harsh.
Awwww.. super cute. And she went back to bed? Where did you buy mr. pink? and blue. keke.
@katchoi - mr pink was given to us as a gift. we left her at a party one weekend and paniced so we went to target and found mr blue. we got mr pink back a week later. they’re by carter’s.
so cute
you should get extras… i have a grey elephant that m ADORES… one in her crib, one out here in the living room. need to get more.. haha.
nice washer/dryer set.
thanks for yesterday! =)
this is a weird q’s on this post but what kind of washer/dryer set do you have? and do you like it? which one do you recommend. i can’t justify paying a thousand something for each one…but i cant decide on which one either
@Ix_LittleB_xI - we got an lg. it was on sale at home depot last month. it uses HE detergent instead of regular detergent.
mmm. a nice, smell good, fresh mr. pink and mr. blue, hehe. i’m sure she appreciated the baths for them..
They look so cute in there…Hey did you read this month’s Real Simple? There was section in there on organizing stuff…I saw it drooled…and thought of you.
Aigo. You must have been sweating bullets when she started looking for it. When I thought I lost Elisa’s Mr Frog at the mall, I thought I was going to have an anxiety attack. Luckily, I found it.
aww~
hahaha! your ovaries were twitching?
lol….your ovaries comment cracked me up~
sooooo the name is super original, just like how i used to call my brown stuffed bear ‘brownie’ heehee
precious!
i don’t know if they make them anymore so i hope you have backups to the backups. and if not, we’re willing to negotiate a price for M’s Mr. Pink.
the last i saw at target, they were selling hippos instead of elephants.
hello my dear! how have you been? i hope all is well.
so i took a long hiatus from xanga and for some reason decided to sign on today. wow! zoe’s gotten so freakin’ big! she’s not a baby anymore. sheesh time flies.
@cant_fly_today - yvonne!!!!!!!!! how the heck are you?! how’s your business coming along? still ok? yeah so are you totally done with xanga?
@mamajoyjoy@momaroo - i asked zoe and she said step off lady. hahaha….are you seriously looking for a mr pink? if so i found one. i hear target is no longer selling them.

@petitetokio - hahaha i’m sensing sarcasm coming from your direction. it was that or mr kobayashi.
based on your last few posts, do you now co-sleep with zoe? if so, in the period that you put her down and before you go to sleep, how do you make sure she doesn’t fall off the bed? does she ever get up before you and wander around on her own?
right now it’s so easy co-sleeping with my baby boy, esp with midnight feedings, but then our bed doesn’t have sides and people tell me they start to roll and crawl on their own later and i really don’t want him to fall off the bed.
do u like the lg w/d? some say they dont and i dunno why
@Ix_LittleB_xI - i’m ok with it. i just don’t think i’m an lg kinda woman. i would go with something else.
She loves Mr. Pink!
@virtualberta - my post going up tomorrow is all for you.
@PetiteMandoo - business is so good! still super busy playing catch up. i’m trying to be good and not forget about xanga, but i always do! it’s hard enough for me to update one blog, let alone 2! haha… definitely follow this blog if you want the most up to date stuff http://yvonne-wong.com/blog. i hope you’re doing good. zoe is growing up to be so lovely!
@cant_fly_today - omigod it would be suicide to maintain 2 blogs girlfriend. i miss you though! 2 comments: i love the photo of the 2 guys who look like they’re auditioning for a dance competition. and i love love love the photo on the hill with the umbrellas where everyone’s jumping. your photos are really inspiring. oh hey, guess what? i finally bought a lens. i got the 50mm f1.4. however i would like to buy a speedlite soon and don’t know what to get. they all look the same to me. any suggestions?
@PetiteMandoo - awww.. thanks! you’re the sweetest! it looks like you’re just going to have to start visiting me on my other blog then…
yay for 50mm 1.4. it’s a GREAT lens and cheap. i can literally shoot a whole portrait session with just that one lens. i have the speedlite 580ex II. i have to say though, canon’s strength is definitely not its flash guns. nikon is much better in that department.
ok now, come visit me often on my other blog! see you there!
