Toddlers though - unbearably sweet one minute and just SO hard to handle the next. Alex has started to call me "my sweet Mama" so I'll definitely be keeping him around, despite the solid head butt he gave the baby yesterday. Where are you in the sweet to spicy pendulum?
You're learning them, and they're learning you. They're also learning this whole amazing world they've just joined... Fair to say it's a lot to take in. But just how beautiful is it that they have the best seat in the house for all of it? You're still their home. For now at least.... . 📷 @logan.enns
🍁 G I V E A W A Y 🍁 . It's @intlbabywearingweek and the week of our second birthday as a company, so it seems like a good time for a big giveaway doesn't it? We're giving away a sling to four lucky winners! This giveaway will have a little twist though... Carrying matters.

Not sponsored by Instagram, contest closes Oct 6 at 6pm mountain. Open world wide, winners outside of US and Canada must pay any additional shipping fees.
Where are my fellow 30 minutes nap warriors? 🙋. . Totally normal for some babies. Totally normal, and SUPER annoying. The baby years are short and everything passes... At least that's what I keep telling myself 😅. . So, solidarity you tired, frustrated folks who never have a minute to catch up. I hope you're getting through ok! 📸 The lovely @vasdfvan in Cedar Bud
Feeling extra grown up on this birthday of mine today. And it's not because it's a big birthday... 33 isn't usually much of a milestone, but last week I was "snack mom" at Alex's preschool and I'm pretty sure nothing has ever made me feel like more of an adult. Buying a house, owning a business or having babies - none of those thing jarred me as much as being in charge of the apple slices and pretzles. 😂 . Grown up me also has Great Lakes and Canyon triple shoulder slings stocked up for you. It's a happy day indeed!
Look what's coming to @up_canadianbwconference this weekend! Our past two season's best selling colours, brought back as our awesome triple shoulder slings! If there any left we'll put them up on the site on Tuesday. Also coming to Vancouver will be one very tired sling lady and a certain 9 month old who wants nothing more than to spend his days rearranging furniture.... Only time will tell how this will play out. I predict it will be messy. Baby travel tips are more than welcome! Where are my Vancouver Instagram friends? Let's meet if we can! I'd love to see you at Up, but let me know if you're more game for after hours.
New in the shop! We've just added Mist, Rocky Mountains and restocked Tofino all in triple shoulder since you all love them so much! There's also a pre-order open for Pines and Hamilton triple shoulders. They will ship within two weeks! And while we're sharing good news - I went to bed at 9 after failing three times to sneak away from Nicky last night. So even though the sleep was choppy since he nurses like a newborn lately, I'm feeling kinda glorious today! Hit me with more good news!
