Ring-sling

105/365 (Vada)

Vada hasn't been feeling well. She woke at 3am this morning with a rather high temperature. I'm not sure if she is teething or coming down with something...either way, it's not fun to watch my precious angel feel miserable. The rings for the sling I made last week arrived in the mail today so I figured it was a perfect day to test it out as comfort was exactly what the doctor (dr. mum) ordered. She happily fed and slept in it most of the day.

Ssshh!

To baby wear or not to baby wear...this is the question!

If you have a baby and you find yourself asking this question...the only answer is BABY WEAR!!
We forgot to bring Vadas bumbo along for our weekend camping...and I'm actually glad we did. I always keep our sling in the car and it was a God send. Although we had more than enough hands to share her around, it was so handy to get her off to sleep, to potter around the campsite hands free...and honestly...who doesn't want a little koala to hug all day. In a perfect world (in my head) I would have a giant carry me around like this. Sometimes when I go to the shops just to grab a few things, I say to myself "no, I don't need the sling, we won't be here long enough" and half way through I regret not just putting her in it and strapping her on.
