Ergo Baby Carrier!!



This is my very favorite baby item! I got one when Tubby was a baby. He lived in it a easy 8 hrs a day! Never caused pain!
I am a huge fan! They are the greatest invention for Mommas! And Daddys! My girls love to wear it too. We are attachment parents and love to wear our babies!
I bought my first Ergo from http://www.thehomegrownfamily.com/ they are a great business! Fast service and very kind! A homeschool, healthy eating and baby wearing friendly business! I highly reccomend them!
Great selection too!
My first Ergo broke after several hundred hrs of baby wearing. And I called the Ergo baby carrier makers. They replaced it for free! And it was a nicer one. Same build but has lovely embroidery on it. Both companies have my respect!
I believe every parent needs diapers, a couple outfits, a car seat and a ergo! Everything else is fluff and unneeded. If you have one what do you think of it?

Blogging...



I have really missed blogging. Working hard at getting this blog and our Soap business blogs running full time again. Lots happening! Busy here!

Just made several hundred bars of yummy soap. Adding a new scent to the blog soon! Working on growing the business.

We did a Podcast with Jack Spirko. He does www.thesurvivalpodcast.com He and his wife are really great! We love them Both. Daddy made a Mammoth tusk knife! It is a beauty! In my top 3 favorite knives he has made!

Girls are really learning right now! Pear-O and Fonte are writting stories for the Vision Forum Contest. I hope to post them later! They are great! They have so much potential. Unschooling somewhat really gets them to do things that are hard because they want too! I would have never tried due to fear of failing. But they do not have this fear! I am so thankful!

They have such a knowledge that I didnt have opportunity to know as a child. They are all hard workers and love learning!

I am blessed to be a momma of 6 Jems!

My favorite Baby Carrier...

Can't get it to flip. But the cranberry Ergo has been my "blankie" for 2 yrs. I carried my babies in it. Nursed them there too. It was soft and comfy. Beautiful and mine. But it broke a couple weeks ago. I called the company to see about a new part. They asked me to email a picture of the break then they would send me a new one. Which I was thrilled with. Then found out I had to send in MY Ergo. I was really sad. In fact it is still sitting here in the return envelope waiting for me to have the courage to do it. Never have I been so attached to anyTHING. But my baby lived in there a easy 8hrs a day. It was so special too me. And I know they will just toss it to the junk pile when they get it. Took all I had in me not to stick the stiff shiney new one in the return bag and say no thanks. Duct tape could fix mine well enough. I feel like I am burying my friend before there time. Silly? Totally. But Honest. Some silly things are just hard. ~Momma
