myMonkeymoo


Since I found out I was pregnant, I've been obsessed with finding the best possible gear. For each essential item, I consulted various resources from the Consumer Reports Baby Products book to reading every user review I could online and then checking out or test driving them in person. I was determined to get the best of what I needed at the best possible price. I think I've achieved this goal and I think I've only gotten products that most mothers say they couldn't live without. Toot, toot! (That's me tooting my own horn.) Whatever. It was all very time consuming and I'm proud of myself.

However, when I went to Style Child in Hillcrest to test drive the glider, I discovered this oh-so-soft stroller seat pad and blanket set that I just couldn't stop thinking about. The patterns on the fabric were so lovely and it was so soft. Even though it wasn't an essential item, I just had to have it. But, I decided to go home and do some research - of course. I read some reviews and ordered it direct from myMonkeymoo, which saved me tax and shipping. I have to say, I am so very pleased with this company. I received it within a week and they included one of their monkey buckets in the matching pattern for free with a sweet hand written little note. I highly recommend this company and one of these sets would make an amazing gift for any new mother. I think it's well worth the money.

  1. i meant to tell you a while ago: if you need anything and can't find it online, let us know. there is no tax on anything in portland and WA is only 20 minutes away (cheaper sometimes and no tax if we show our oregon I.D.), so we can pick it up and ship for you (if it's a better deal).
