Now Im a Baby Wearer Too!



Yay! I have a new wrap and can now carry Zoe around hands free! I have been so anxious to be able to do this, and have had difficulty getting they tying thing down and finding something that works for us. But it finally clicked and I ordered a stretchy wrap that is great while she is so little and I am hoping will also work well as she gets bigger and heavier, but if not we will cross that bridge when it comes! This one is a CuddlyWrap, and one of the nicest features is that it is one of the most affordable out there. But beyond that, so far I think it works great. Really comfortable fabric. Interesting tying technique which varies a little from the other carry ties I have read about, but works really well - especially for popping her in and out. So today when we went for the 1 month doctor visit I put the wrap on at home and when we got there took her out of the car seat and into the wrap without having to retie anything - totally handy! Anyhow, I am really enjoying the handsfree thing, and Zoe likes to fall asleep in it, which is also a nice deal!

Being home so much and spending all my time with Zoe (Changing Zoe's diapers, Carrying Zoe, Cuddling Zoe, Feeding Zoe...) has made it really tempting to shop online for handy Zoe related things. In the last two days I have bought two nursing bras (on sale!) three cloth diaper wraps (shes outgrowing two newborn ones!) and this wrap. Im really happy with all these purchases...but I better put away the credit card. Online Shopping is so darn easy and tempting!

Hey Molls, the wraps are definitely the cutest kind. We got Mahnaz the pricetastic ergo-baby carrier b/c all the moms at the baby store were off their rockers for it. It goes til their four and has a waist support strap, so if you're still looking as she gets bigger, we got free shipping and no tax on the thing from cotton babies. Did you still not get your package from yours truly? ERgh...going to kill them. You would have loved it! Never matter--I shall devise an alternate plan...
