A Christmas Present For Mommy

I saw something that sparked my interest... and at the price I found it at, I just couldnt resist. I got myself a kemby Sidekick. Its a diaper bag / baby carrier combo!

I got it with Ryan in mind, thinking about how I'm going to have to be a bit more agile with a 2.5 year old and 6 month old in the spring. He wont even be crawling, but she will continue to advance in her keep-away-from-mommy skills. I dont always want to pull out a double stroller, and sometimes feel the need to be a little more on the go. It just seemed as though it would be pretty handy.

It came in the mail today and I couldnt resist testing out the 35 lb weight limit with my 34 lb 2 year old. I put her in it, really easily, and walked around the house. Sure, I didnt have her in it for a long time, but in those few moments it felt pretty great. Brooke really liked it and has continued to hound me to put it back on and carry her around. And I quote "Mommy pick you up. RIGHT NOW!". I've distracted her with food and hid the bag. Lets hope that works!

*We weighed Ryan just to see where he was at 6 weeks old ... he is now 13.4 lbs. That's about 1 lb gained over the past two weeks.
