The absolutely adorable all-organic pillows created by Jaya Loves Tekeko take on a life of their own when placed on your sofa or scattered throughout the nursery. Created by a Miami-based mom who named her company after her two tots, the pillows are made from a bamboo and cotton blend with a cotton shell on the kapok insert. Using water-based inks, the six designs showcase Japanese and modern characters worked into natural settings.

The Pillow Bear ($435) is just what its name suggests: part teddy bear, part pillow.
You can transition from snuggle time to nap time by releasing the 100 percent cashmere bear's tie-front closure and turning the bear's arms into a pillow.

The recent "Killer Cribs" study has me on a mission to make my lil one's room and living space as toxin and allergen free as possible.

The anticipation of how much shiny change the tooth fairy will leave and the process of preparing for her visit has always struck me as one of the most precious family traditions.
If you haven't committed to a fancy inscripted tooth fairy box consider this Oeuf Tooth Fairy Pillow (on sale for $20). The knit pillow molar has a tiny pocket on the back where you can slip your lil one's deposit to the tooth fairy, and because of its U-shape it also makes a great plane and transit pillow.

I have given many nursery pillows for "welcoming baby" gifts, but none as cute as these from Elle and Evans. Each pillow is made with fine dupioni silk, filled with down feathers, and can be monogrammed for $58. These fabulous pillows are appropriate for both boys and girls and can go along with modern and shabby chic themed rooms.

Some new moms rush out and befriend fellow mothers once baby arrives, and other women just keep the same friends they've always had. Sure, it's comforting to chat about life with someone in a similar stage, but there's a big bonus in sticking with your single friends and keeping them close to your family. Here are some of the benefits:
When you tell the kids that their "Auntie" is coming over, they squish their faces against the window and line the front door like it's a red carpet!
She loves to give piggy back rides, partake in pillow fights, and doesn't mind marker tattoos.
She welcomes your tots with open arms because she isn't toting all kinds of baby baggage!
She loves to babysit or borrow your kids to test out her maternal skills without all of the responsibility.
Children reap the reward of having another adult (who isn't a parent) to talk to about issues.
She still has her train of thought intact and can lead you through a conversation no matter how many times it gets interrupted.
The novelty of changing diapers, repeatedly reading the same story, and tucking tots into bed hasn't worn off for her yet.
No matter what the occasion, her gift and presence are unrivaled.
You don't have to schedule hanging out around nap time, mood swings, or her meals.
You get to live vicariously through her when she fills you in on her latest date, a spontaneous trip, or pulling an all-nighter (that doesn't involve someone getting sick or having a nightmare).
