Baby Gear Commercial

One piece of baby gear that I was dead set on buying was the Ergo baby carrier. I saw it and knew in my heart of hearts that this was something we needed to own. David looked at it and said, "that's a bunch of flimsy fabric." We got one anyways, and now that Daphne is here what does David think of it? He Loves it. As in Love with a capital 'L.' The best thing about it is that it carries the baby weight around your waist, not on your back and shoulders, so there is no pain in using it. When Daphne wants to be held and you don't feel like your arms can take it anymore, pop her in the Ergo. And although she is sleeping in her bed much better than she used to and so treks up and down the stairs are no longer needed to get her to sleep, it was the Ergo that made those treks possible. We use it at the grocery store, or when Daphne wants to be held but I want to clean, and for walks around the park. The Ergo will come in very handy in the coming months.




















The best thing of all, of course, is that Daphne also loves the Ergo. She feels snug and cozy, and finds it's the perfect place for a nap.

We also have this fabulous carseat frame stroller from cousin Sophie. We use it all the time when we're out and about shopping because it's small and light and easy to pack around. Today was the first day we used it to go for a spring-time walk.





























We've started Daphne young in introducing her to the great outdoors. David already has some serious hikes planned out for her for the summer. Serious as in 13-14 milers. All I can think is, that's a lot of diapers to hall around the woods.

Oh yeah, gotta love the Ergo. Before having one i wouldn't have thought it'd really be much better than a sling or Baby Bjorn thing. But once we got the Ergo, we hardly used anything else. It's just that much better. We don't use ours much now that Adelle is walking, but i still have a deep love for it.
