It is so interesting to me to watch the evolution of today’s babywearing culture!  A few years ago, there were a handful of known baby carrier brands, and now look at all the choices!!!  Celebrities wear their babies, government officials wear their babies, and regular everyday parents wear their babies!  Babywearing is no longer limited to granola eating, Birkenstock wearing moms, although I give credit to my mom for starting the baby carrier come back in the 80s while wearing long skirts and peasant blouses!  I know that here in Southern California, wearing your baby in a carrier is not only acceptable in mainstream society but also commended by doctors, midwives, and chiropractors!  However, for those of you who are the ONLY babywearers you  have ever seen or met, more BWing power to you! It must be hard to be the ONLY one!

Just like in our world, there are only a few species of animals in the wild who carry their babies! No wonder  the Kangaroo and the Koala are considered to be babywearing mascots!!!!  The thought that those animals have built in slings is just too adorable!!  This onesie from Old Navy seemed especially pertinent for our babyworn little ones!  “I {heart} hanging out with mom”  Oh too cute!!!

And a shout out to the amazing wildlife we saw while traveling, living, and babywearing in Australia, here is a photograph of a  happy baby carrying koala mama and her little one that my husband spotted as we sped down the freeway (on the left side of course!)  We pulled over to take her picture, and then her baby crawled around from the side to surprise us!

Is it just me, or do memories fade really quickly?  Thank goodness for pictures, or I would have forgotten a lot of the sweet moments of my children’s busy busy life!

These photos are from a great day that my husband and I took our (then only) 3 children to the Butterfly Preserve to see the monarchs!  We had a fabulous time even though we only saw a few butterflies – turns out it was the wrong season, oops!  I can recall now (thanks to the pix) the earthy smell of the eucalyptus trees, the peaceful picnic we had while sitting on stumps, wearing Baby #3 in a Ring Sling, Baby #2’s butterfly shoes, and the great nap all 3 kids had after our “hike!”

Oh, what would I give to have a pouch built right into my body!  I love that the Kangaroo has a natural baby carrier to protect, bond, and nourish her little one!  Kangaroos are mammals, meaning that they breastfeed their young within their pouch – sound familiar???  You know what they say, 9 in 9 out, and that’s not JUST for baby animals!

2 years today, the PAXbaby family packed our belongings into 11 suitcases, duffelbags, and backpacks, and set off on a 5 month adventure!!!  We took 5 children under 7 millions of miles away to explore New Zealand and Australia, and returned back home to Southern California filled with memories & promises!  We promise we will go back again, we promise we will never forget the gorgeous scenery, the lovely people, the warm welcome we received everywhere we went!  Traveling was fun, exciting, and downright crazy with this many little ones, however we both owe babywearing a HUGE thank you for making traveling as easy as possible with a baby and a busy toddler!  Both the PAXdaddy and I wore our baby carriers pretty much all day every day when we were exploring, whether hiking through rain forests avoiding huge man sized spiderwebs, visiting museums and monuments in major cities, or walking on white sand beaches watching dolphins in the surf!  2 years later, the memories are still vivid: the way the air smelled clean and fresh even in metropolises, the surprise we got when we realized the constellations in the night sky were all different, the unusual habit of everyone – even grown people – to walk barefoot everywhere!  I’ll be posting regularly babywearing pictures from our Down Under experience so we can relive the fun together!

If you ever need parenting advice, ask the mother of multiples!  In order to survive the babies’ first year, moms of multiples have to learn every trick in the book!  It seems like yesterday that I was learning to juggle 2 newborns and an 18 month old, and I KNOW that having 3 under 2 is what makes me completely unfazed by having 6 under 8 1/2 now!!!!  But now some words of wisdom from Keri, who is learning to deal just like I did!

PAXbaby.com

“I have three under three (2.5 year old and 9 week old twins).  The Beco Gemini helps me be active with all three!  Not to mention easy enough for grandma and a wonderful “witching hour” weapon.

PAXbaby.com
I’ve owned a lot of carriers, and this is my favorite hands down!“

Take Keri’s expert advice, and get yourself a Beco Gemini!!!!

Thanks to PAXbaby #5 for falling asleep while your daddy did lawn work!  You provided a great learning lesson while being worn in a structured framed backpack – improper spine positioning, dangling legs, unsupported head!  My poor lil fella woke up with his feet asleep and an unhappy face!  Please help your baby to be comfortable in your carrier of choice by providing a comfortable place to sleep (your shoulder or chest!), keeping their legs in the proper M position, and an ergonomic upright position!  For toddler babywearing, the Beco Butterfly II, Manduca, BabyHawk Oh Snap!, or the Boba are PAXbaby’s best baby carrier recommendations for your heavy baby!

When my mail carrier arrived with a box of new carriers, I didn’t have any other models available, so I grabbed the only kid I could find to wear in my fluffy mail – PAXbaby’s newest SSC hybrid, the Olives & Applesauce 1/2 buckle!  Not only was my almost 8 year old weightless on my back, the waistband fit comfortably under my 38 week baby belly!  After we took pictures, I went to untie the shoulder straps, and Baby #1 asked if I could wear him longer!  Awwwwwwww!

Even at 4 weeks to go until I have my own squishy babe to wear, I couldn’t resist grabbing my friends’ baby yesterday to pop in the Boba!  We had a fellow “large family” over for dinner, & I was thrilled to be able to teach the sweet mama how to Superman Toss her 11 month old!  Hey, every opportunity is a babywearing opportunity, right???
