Happy Birthday Daddy!
Not that he reads, but it IS his birthday and I do love him oh so much!
Yes, I still call my Dad, Daddy-sometimes at least 
I celebrated his birthday by going to spin this morning! The normal teacher was back and it was a FABULOUS class. YAY! I had a VERY exciting half of a Larabar before and half after:
I like the Cinnamon Roll flavor. Hooray for grocery shopping yesterday!
Once I got to work, I made a tea latte with soy milk, chocolate hazelnut tea, and agave. I also had some of my Mom’s granola with some soy milk.
Since I didn’t cook last night (or really all weekend-guess I needed a break) I didn’t have any leftovers for lunch today. Thinking about it now, I could have made a salmon salad sandwich but that didn’t occur to me last night so Whole Foods Salad Bar it is!
To change gears completely, a bunch of you asked about our carrier. Let’s see if pictures can show you if we like it.
This weekend:
In Hawaii:
In Morro Bay:
In Idaho:
Near home, over Thanksgiving:
This thing ROCKS. It’s a Kelty TC 2.0. I think our only complaint is that Lu has such a long body that the shoulder straps for her are getting too tight. We’re going to look for extenders. It has a diaper bag that zips off of it (and is it’s own backpack), it holds a ton, and Shaun hiked some pretty hairy stuff in Hawaii with NO PROBLEM. We did an 8 mile, super steep, super muddy hike while in Hawaii and that thing was great! We were letting Lu walk the other day and she asked to go on Daddy’s back. It’s cool. I HIGHLY recommend it!

When my son was a baby he totally lived in the Bjorn and then graduated to the backpack! That one looks super nice, I am jealous : )
Hope your Dad has a great day!

I love that you sometimes still call your daddy, “daddy” sometimes, so do I! Nice plug for babywearing, I wish we could get the word out there that there are so many more comfortable and available backpacks and carriers than the ones most people use!

Yep, I guess I should post about my love affair with The Ergo at some point. I.LOVE.THAT.THING.
Baby wearing is the best!
Thanks for the sweet comments everyone.

Please do post about your Ergo love! I’ve never gotten that “into” mine and would love to hear about what I’m missing.

Well, you should tell him to read – he’s missing out!
