It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon. My brother John came downtown to the West Village with my sister-in-law Christine and my niece Victoria. We walked around window shopping for awhile and came upon a store on Christopher Street called [hus] a scandinavian store. Looking in the window we saw two stuffed dolls packaged together called "Pee&Poo." Pee is shaped like a teardrop and is yellow (I guess a long yellow toy just isn't as cute), while Poo is a cute brown pile of, well, crap. Considering that they are based on disgusting bodily functions, they're awfully adorable. Save for my brother, the rest of us were absolutely nuts over the cuteness of Pee and Poo. I excitedly showed Christine the stationary set you could get with Pee and Poo's likenesses on the envelope and look, it comes with stickers too! Christine pointed out that the baby clothing was almost enough to have another child so you could justify buying some of the items. And there was Pee and Poo keychains, as well as baby t-shirts, underwear and socks. I was very tempted to plunk down $12 for the Pee keychain but I would have felt bad leaving Poo behind. Sadly, I'm still second guessing my choice to not pick up the Pee&Poo duo that are pictured with this post. I was curious about these toys so I checked out the company's site and found that the brand, from Stockholm, has been around since 2004, and is designed for both adults and children alike (that makes me feel alot better). Regardless of whom they're designed for I think they'll make a welcome addition to anyone's bedroom. "Is that pee and poop on your bed?" "No, that's Pee and Poo. Aren't they cute?"
