baby wants what baby wants

{Jonas and his Zip-Itz Zeke doll}

File this under Things I Never Thought I'd Do As A Parent. I thought I would provide Jonas with only the highest quality, organic wooden toys with patterns and colors that were appealing to myself. But then I realized I wanted moments of silence and happy independent play. Enter the brightly colored toys that I normally would have cringed it. Yes, I caved and I totally don't even care anymore! After the very young stage where babies are obsessed with all things high contrast and black and white they are attracted to bright colors! They reach for it, they grab it and eventually put it in their mouth. Which is why Jonas loves his Zeke doll. Once he gets older he will be able to unzip those zippers, but for now he loves sucking on the star tabs. 

And other things that are rocking Jonas' world right now? 
Straws, spoons and tags (note to moms-to-be: Don't cut tags off anything, babies love tags!).

That doll is so cute, I've never seen those! It's amazing how quickly everything YOU want goes out the window and the baby takes over :) Just wait until he's in to Cars and Sesame Street! In just glad Joaquin doesn't care about Sponge Bob (barf!) hahaha

I hear ya! I wanted a mobile for our baby girl that was soft colors and "pretty" my girlfriends told me to not even bother because babies love black and white and then BRIGHT colors. I have yet to learn about all the baby toys...I'm pretty clueless.
