I saw a post about the Moby wrap, and I fell in love. Unfortunately, I already own two baby slings. A first years, and a snugli. And while they're nice, and once she's in them, Bri's pretty comfy in them, they're bulky and uncomfortable for me. So anyway, my jealous self decided I had to have a Moby. I cannot afford one, however, so I spent hours drooling over the website, and holding the baby and pouting. Then I got a bright idea. I made one of my own. :)
Four dollars worth of stretchy knit material from the walmart dollar bin, and a pair of scissors later, I have my own homemade Moby Wrap. I'm happy. And Bri, who had been having her evening crying fit, promptly fell asleep while I washed her bottles. She snoozes on my chest while I make this post. After I get done, we're going to go through the closet and get my clothes ready for purple heart donation day tomorrow. This is going to make life better for me, cause she's one of those velcro babies who refuses to be put down. I'm feeling very happy, proud of myself, and economical. Nevermind that her father thinks I'm crazy. He saw how fast she zonked out once she got used to it, and was absolutely in awe of my parenting skills. *evil laugh* So, I've now made my own version of the miracle blanket, with a recieving blanket and a cheapo swaddler from walmart, and I've made my own moby. Go me!
Aren't we cute??
