insanity (with marshmallows)

thanks to Amy's facebook link, i had a sleepless night tossing and turning and just wondering "who?" and more importantly "WHY????!" about the following baby products:

this is a bassinet :| made to look like a cardboard box :| and it's $250 :|


imagine opening this gift at your baby shower - a huge oversized pair of severed hands to cup your baby while he sleeps (and doesn't have nightmares too...)

the following products prove that Etsy is sometimes weird AND not particularly wonderful :| i have only one terrifying question: is it real......? please say it's not a real fetus in blood (very Angelina Jolie:)


and this doll. oh my gawd, this gave me nightmares. NIGHTMARES, AMY!!! who would knit such a thing??! and what is wrong with them!?


finally.... this is a dried placenta made into a cute little teddy bear. and if your baby gets hungry, he can always chew on it ;)


not all crazy parenting products were completely out of the question... i always wanted to invent a helmet to keep my boys safe (too many chipped teeth, bruised foreheads and stitches to count...) and this would be perfect - if it was cuter. and had a sturdy chin guard :)


this - i love!!! a ride-on vacuum cleaner!! i would soooooo buy this!

    They use something like those hand thingies in the NICU to settle premature babies so that they feel secure in their incubators. But it's more like a bean bag than a severed hand. :)
    That placenta bear is waaay too "Silence of the Lambs" for my liking. Creepy!

  2. Oh my Lord!! Sorry to have scared you for life!
    I never saw the pair of hands that you could order...that is just so wrong! The placenta bear...it looks like its made of those pig skin ears that you buy for your dogs to chew on, imagine the fun your dog would have with that bear!
    Gross!
