SMILE

OK, so every post from here until who knows when is going to feature Lincoln. Sorry, he really is my whole world right now. We finally got some good pictures of him smiling!

And, I am very proud of myself. After having a woman tell me how much she loved her sling when her baby was young, I thought it might give one a try. However, the price tag of the ones I could find was crazy considering it is not much more than a big piece of fabric. So I found instructions online, modified them just a bit because the fabric I chose didn't seem super strong, and I made my own from about $8 worth of fabric (gotta love JoAnn's coupons!). Tanner doesn't think there is any way Lincoln can be comfortable in it, and I haven't had super success with it so far, but here is a picture we took one day that really was a success!

I guess I'm just going to keep trying. A lot of the websites I have looked at say that it takes a bit of practice until both Lincoln and I will be really be comfortable with it. Oh, and did I mention how easy it was to make? I really don't get how people can get away with selling them for $50!
