28 weeks!

We have started weekly non-stress tests and biophysical profiles at my OB's office, to keep a close eye on this little one. And he/she seems to be doing fine, growing, wiggling and trying to avoid getting his/her picture captured, but the ultrasound tech was able to snap these two for me:


And my sweet Mikayla snapped this shot of me:

If all things go as planned we hope to me this sweet baby in about 8 weeks!

Babywearing

Uh-oh ... someone asked me about babywearing ... this could be a long post.
OK, I'll admit that I cheated and went back through my archives and found a post I wrote in 2009 ... tweaked it a bit, but it all still applies!

So, how, where, and when do I wear my babies? Lets see ...


From tiny pink newborns





to a toddler at his brothers t-ball game





From oh so casual tie dying event




To all fancy and dressed up






From snowy MN




To the beaches of Argentina





From caring for a sick little one at home




To cheering on the MN Twins in the Metrodome

WE LOVE BABYWEARING!!!


And I should probably add:

A great place to read reviews on each kind of carrier is www.thebabywearer.com

My favorite place to order new slings and wraps
is: www.peapods.com


My wraps are:

and Didymos

My Mei Tais are:

A Maya Tai
and a Sachi

My Ring Slings are:

Over the Shoulder Baby Holder
