Lots of sharing amongst cousins and such. And my brother got tons of hand-me-downs when he was a kid too.

Makes me wish we some cool clothes like these to wear when we were growing up:

You’ll find these cute t-shirts and onesies at Two Zany Zebras. You’ve gotta love the cute monsters!

Two Zany Zebras is also the home of the Zarkle, which I discern to be a really cute monster-like being. They’re not scary. Some have one eye. And they’re all unique. And cuddly. This one happens to have a blanket included:

If you have some little ones, or know someone who has some little ones, do check the shop out. Lots of colorful fun things — and your kids won’t grow up feeling bad about having had just hand-me-downs to wear. ;-)

This lovely felt creation can be found at Little Boy Blue Boutique (where they’re not just partial to boys … there’s stuff for girls too!).

All the play food is wrapped up in a cute tote that also serves as a reversible tablecloth. There are even felt folks and spoons!

Not feeling like eggs and ham? There’s a dessert version, too. Donuts, eclairs, cake and pie … yum!

There’s more than just fun felt toys at Little Boy Blue Boutique … there are also cute baby shoes (made with felt too) and other lovely baby gifts.

It’s the Pee-pee Teepee! And so many great colors to choose from!

(And the poem printed on the packaging — which you can also read in full on the product page — is absolutely priceless!)

My brother was born 10 years after I was, so I had to play mom No. 2 many times. And that involved changing diapers. Luckily, I never got squirted, but I saw my mom get nailed once. It was hysterical. (Well, only because it wasn’t me.)

I bet mom wishes she had a teepee back then. Then again, she’s frugal. She probably wouldn’t have sprung the cash for the teepees.

But they would seriously make great baby shower gifts!
