About Shiri Perciger-Cohen
I am Shiri Perciger-Cohen, and I’m Tiny Love’s web marketing manager and blogger. At this point in time (June 2007) I’m 27 and a mother of 2: an almost 4 years old and an 18 months old . I’m sure my kids will make frequent appearances in the blog, as their mother doesn’t seem to be able to shut up about them… Tiny Love is the world’s leader in soft developmental toys. We realize that for many parents the task of choosing the right toys for their babies is not a simple one, and so we create toys that are developed from the ground up to meet baby’s developmental needs. Our toys have received world recognition and won many awards. Read more about us on the Tiny Love website.

- Gettin’ better all the time
Here’s the setup: A., me and kids are coming back from our morning walk outside. I am carrying Ulysses’s bike with a front wheel full of the nastiest dog poo you can imagine. The Dandelion has just decided to start an impromptu potty training 15 minutes ago and took off his diaper.
At the entrance to […] - It’s a dictatorship I tell you
Our friend came to visit yesterday with her 6 weeks old baby girl. Our friend is a new mom with a tendency to “crunchiness”, mid-thirties, free spirit, lived all around the world, did some crazy things in her days, a sort of an avantgarde performance artist and a totally cool person in all respects.
And she’s […] - 1.10*
1.10, you confuse me.
I know, I know, I should be prepared. It’s not like 4.0 wasn’t 1.10 a few short years ago. Still, you perplex me.
You wake up in the middle of the night every night. What gives? Five months ago you were already sleeping through the night, and now all of a sudden […] - The Shift
When I was about 15 I had a really bad fight with my boyfriend. It was the worst fight we had in the entire two years of our relationship. I don’t really remember the details, but I remember we didn’t talk for a few days and I remember that I was very distressed and upset […]
- Yay! Halloween!
Halloween is my favorite holiday. First, it’s in the fall, which is my favorite season, (cold enough for soups, warm enough for long walks) (wow, that came out kitschy.) Second, it’s three days after my birthday, (yay, my birthday! Who hasn’t heard about my upcoming birthday yet? Outer Space, it’s my birthday!) And third, the […]
- Did I not tell you already? I’m a procrastinator.
A. once told me that I’m incapable of doing one thing every single day. (We were going another round at our ongoing challenge called “I do so much more than you around this house”, and he was trying to prove a point.) I disagreed: “You could not be more wrong! I shower every day! I […]
- Hall of Fame moments: July 2007
– I’m making dinner. The salad is ready and I’m busy with the potatoes. The Dandelion enters the kitchen, pushes a chair, climbs on it, and standing on the chair starts munching on the salad. THE SALAD. He ate the salad out of free will. No coaxing, no cajoling. He wanted the salad so bad […]
- I’m lazy, therefore I’m sane
I’m a world-class procrastinator. I never do anything now that I could possibly do later, and when later comes, I usually still don’t do it because, hey, there’s always tomorrow.
I started counting how many times this cursed tendency of mine has gotten me into knee-deep trouble, but it was too complicated, so I decided […] - …and I’m back
So I was spending the entire week two weeks ago being horribly miserably sick *insert over-inflated self pity here*, and then the next week, which was actually last week, planning my big comeback post after not writing a whole week and guess what happened? Nothing. Nothing happened. No post and no shoes. (That’s a common […]
- Because a feel-good post wouldn’t be as much fun
The worst moment of my life to this point was sitting in a neon-lit emergency room corridor and hearing through the closed door of the examination room three weeks old Dandelion screaming with pain while undergoing a spinal tap procedure.
If you didn’t click on the above link, you might be under the impression I’m an […]
