The best smelling package thats ever arrived!!

Ok that's and odd title for a product review I know, but seriously when I opened the box from Sugarplum Dreams I instantly wished I could visit their retail store as something over there smells amazing. On that little side note when I was given the chance to do a review for Sugarplum Dreams online store I had the worst time finding something to review, not because there were not great options on the site but for the sheer fact that there were so many great options.

Connor has been showing some real intrest in pillows the last few months to the point that he curls up with my pillow any chance he gets so I knew it was time to look for a pillow of his very own that he could keep in his bed with him but he is not quite old enough for a full sized adult pillow so we needed something that was soft, toddler sized, and could be used as much for snuggling as it could be for sleeping. When I saw the Little Giraffe Chenille Baby Pillows over at Sugarplum Dreams I knew they would be perfect. Part decoration, part plush comfort, and small enough that I don't feel weird letting Connor have on in the bed with him he uses his Little Giraffe pillow to snuggle with and ocassionally I find him sleeping on top. I actually have a Little Giraffe robe which has to be one of the most luxurious items I have ever owned and though I am not at all a robe girl I have found myself falling asleep in my robe on nights that I'm having trouble sleeping as its just that comfortable. I have a feeling Connor feels the same way about his pillow as the few nights he has had to go without it if it gets dirty he will point at where it normally is in his bed and cry. I was a little sceptical about if it was washable as I knew it would be nearly impossible for Connor not to get it dirty. Needless to say I try not to wash it if I don't have to just so it will last longer and spot clean it when I can but it has been through the laundry twice and it looks as great now as it did when we first got it.

We have a ton of books and though we love them all I can say without a doubt that the My Mommy's Tote board book that we got from Sugarplum Dreams has to be the coolest book we own without a doubt. Ever heard that saying that woman has everything in her purse other than the kitchen sink? Well the My Mommy's Tote board book has just about everything you can think of in it. Though there is a story to read the My Mommy's Tote is more of an activity book than about the story, meaning that each page inside the tote is completely interactive. There are tons of things to discover from the textures inside the book to touch to hidden compartments with little secrets like the credit card that you can actually take out of the wallet and the dial that changes the title of the suduko book. My question though is who keeps a can of peas inside their tote? Hmm I wonder a little about the Mommy who owns this tote. heh. There is so much to do and see that every time we look at it there is always something new. I don't let Connor play with the My Mommy's Tote book by himself yet as I'm still a little scared he might rip out one of the cardboard pieces quite yet but its a fun read for children under 2 with supervision and three years and up as an activity toy especially in the car or in a place where they need a quiet toy to keep them busy. Actually speaking of books one of the most overwhelming things for me when it comes to shopping for Connor is books, as there are just so many choices that unless you have time to really go to a book store and look at each book I find it difficult to order books online, with that said the book selection at Sugarplum Dreams takes all that guesswork out for you as they have one of the best book selections I have seen in an online store. All thoughtfully picked out and not so many that the selection is too terribly overwhelming I would be happy to welcome any book that they sell into my collection. We actually already own quite a few of them.

Shipping is free on any order of $100 or more at Sugarplum Dreams. You can also get 15% off your total purchase by using the coupon code 7Dogs15 at checkout until December 31st!
