I haven’t posted about this in the past, mostly because I know that it is something that the child involved will not want out there, on the internet, when he or she is older. The interwebz are forever. I have hit my breaking point, however, so I need… something. Advice. … Continue reading
It’s been a while since we did a babywearing post, and I thought I might feature some of our different carriers from time to time – show off my stash! Cole is sadly beginning to outgrow some of our carriers – our favorite mei tai doesn’t really support him knee … Continue reading
