Geared Up

Today I made my favorite baby purchase as of yet (not to be confused with actually purchasing a baby) - I bought my Ergo carrier!

I had found one on Craigslist this morning that I thought might be perfect (pretty good price, no pattern/girly look lest my husband refuse to wear it, etc.) only it was an "Ergo Sport" which I wasn't sure about because it doesn't have as padded of straps (we tend to have big babies - well, you know, after the first one and all) and I didn't want the straps digging into my shoulders, and it just didn't seem to have the same amount of support and I want to feel pure bliss when I wear my carrier (this baby will be in a carrier a lot).

So anyway, after deciding not to get that one, I read reviews on Amazon and found out that the Original Ergo would probably be the best fit for both Jeff and I (and the major difference in our sizes)... and then I found one for cheaper (brand new!) than the used one on Craigslist!

  1. OMGoodness I want to put your baby boy in there and carry him NOW! Eek! Super excited squeals! Although I should probably wait until my own bump is out of the way too huh? Seriously though.... You sure you can't arrange to have him by the shower? Cause THAT would be an awesome present :)

  2. Um, I'm pretty sure I asked for a picture of you wearing the Ergo carrier with a doll inside for "practice". Happy you got it blah blah blah- WHERE'S MY PICTURE? ;-)
    PS. For those who don't know me, I am totally kidding

    1. I don't actually HAVE it yet, so BACK OFF! I just ordered it, so for the love of all things chocolate give me a break, okay!? (Oh, and for those who don't know me, I'm only kinda kidding...) ;)

    1. I found it on Amazon.com (it was $79.99 - the one I bought is about $115 when bought in a store) - I had to wait a little bit and search to find the one I wanted (black, so Jeff would wear it as well, lol). Anyway, I've only heard GREAT things about Ergo and I'm stoked to have one! :)
