There is a new obsession in Mama’s house and it’s a pet. While Mama is a proud PUG Mama, my new favorite pet is a Pillow Pet. The pillow pet doesn’t need anything from Mama – no food, water, walks or attention. You can simply sleep on it, cuddle with it or play with it — it’s a fantastic pet!
While Mama is NOT a fan of stuffed animals…okay, more than not a fan more like an enemy — there is something different about a stuffed animal that is not only the softest, and most cuddly animal in the world that just melts Mama’s heart.
Created by a local San Diego mom of two, the Pillow Pet can be folded for play and lay flat to sleep. There are over 30 animals to choose from including a bumble bee, zebra, giraffe, whale, unicorn and bunny.
In the meantime, Mama is also holding out for the cute animal backpacks. Which one is your favorite? Don’t you think they make a great little Easter basket stuffer…hint, hint!
Available at MyPillowPets.com, $19.99 for backpacks and $24.99 for large pillows.
Mama’s other favorite pets:
Zoobies — It’s a plush blanket with an animal face that is too cute for words! Available at Zoobies.com, $25Littlest Pet Shop — little Lily is crazy for these toys right now. Mama thinks the parts are too little for baby boy but I do like the ones she can decorate and draw on. Available at Amazon
, $12.99.
Furreal Friends — Boys will also love these farm and safari animals from the Hasbro Furreal Friends line. Mama personally loves the piglet and the PUG but there are so many to choose from you can make your own farm right in your own living room! Available at Amazon
, $16 and up.








My philosophy is simple: just because you're a mom doesn't mean you have to forgo style or your life. You can do it all with a little help from Mama. Mama makes life easier by doing all the shopping, crafting and ranting for you because really...what Mama has the time for that?! Mama will not lie, I can bake but if you're looking for cooking tips you might be better off going someplace else!




Nathan loves his pillow pet! He even plays with it and pretends to ride on it when it's folded. It's like a mini pony
