It’s on days like these that I truly love my one-year sabbatical in SAHM-land. I started the day with a coffee date with Andrea<\/a>, who gets sweeter every time we meet. She took the most gorgeous photos of Lucas… I stole this one, but you should pop on over to her site<\/a> to take a look at the rest, and I’ll wait for you to get back.<\/p>\n

See? Great photos! And great conversation, too! Reminded me that I really have to get out to see my bloggy friends in person more often.<\/p>\n

Then, I headed over to Milkface <\/a>to see what y’all were on about<\/a> — and you were right! What a great little store. There were three other moms there trying on slings when we arrived, so I got the chance to eavesdrop on the best sling recommendations for a 5 lbs week old baby (!!) and an 8 month old wiggler, and watched one mom wriggle her baby into a sling worn like a backpack. <\/p>\n

And I brought home this Maya wrap to try out. It’s like the bright colours were calling out to me!<\/p>\n

Lucas had been fussy in his baby-bucket car seat carrier, but as soon as I slipped him into the sling in the store he settled right in. He tolerated it for 30 minutes or so last night while I unpacked groceries and puttered around the kitchen, too, which is about 28 minutes more success than we’ve had with the Baby Bjorn. So far, two thumbs up for the Maya sling!<\/p>\n

And thanks to another darling friend, I have also been loaned one of these fancy-ass swings for as long as Lucas will fit into it:<\/p>\n

With blue skies and warm temperatures forecasted for the whole week, I feel like Lucas and I are getting a fresh start and ready to take on the world! Or at least the laundry. Hey, ya gotta start somewhere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
