Both products rate high on the cuteness scale; several mom friends thought so, too. Cuddly Wuddlees is probably the softest blanket I've ever felt.

THE VERDICT: Although my 2-year-old doesn't know cute from a cucumber, she knows what she likes: Her ratty cotton blanket is for daytime snuggling, and Cuddly Wuddlees is her nighttime "nankie." Diapees & Wipees is one of those no-brainer inventions I wish I'd thought of first. It kept her diapers and wipes organized -- rather than scattered -- inside my purse. Now I can ditch my bulky diaper bag for good.

WHERE TO GET IT: Cuddly Wuddlees blankets, $40-$44; Diapees & Wipees, $14.99. Available at Nordstrom and select boutiques. www.cuddlywuddlees.com
