Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
Just a quick update, cause I only have a second! The HEB is keeping us BUSY. But he's doing so well, we just can't complain!
He had his one month birthday yesterday. Can you believe it? And he came home at 4 lbs 15 ounces, and weighed in yesterday at 6 lbs 9 oz! What a chunk!
Here he is, with my sister's old gloworm for scale:
He looks like a larva when he's all swaddled. Love the swaddle. Very important for soothing the HE Beast.
There has been a little bit of knitting! But, it's a secret, so I can't show you until it's done. Which hopefully will be very soon.
I then will try to finish seaming the husband sweaker - the Phildar one that is almost done. Here's where we were before the HEB:
Actually, it's past that, because I have both sleeves done. I need to sew in the other sleeve, and it will be done! Of course, it's been extremely warm in Georgia, so it's not as if he could really wear it anyway. So I don't feel so bad. ;-)
A bit of advice, please.
First, a huge shout-out to my buddies Karma and Rachel who have helped me so much by email when things have been really hard with the HEB.
Second, the question. The HEB hates his sling which is a Hotsling. HATES it. He only marginally likes his Baby Björn. Any mom's out there have slings to recommend?
He's little, so it has to be something he can fit in safely, and preferably something that won't kill my back. I could just really use something that he will like and either hang out or sleep in so I can use my hands part of the day. Thanks!
