Something amazing...

DD1 (21/2) is a little itch and NEVER sits still, and really wont sit in a stroller for that long. (we only ever used a bjourn for baby wearing with her, I really regret that) I made a mei tai for dd2 and its pretty big so I decided to just try dd1 on my back with it. She  LOVED it! I cooked dinner wearing her and it was so nice because I didn't have to stop every two minutes to see what she was up to. H then said if I made one that was manly he would wear her when we go out! I know she is getting a little old but she is on the small side (only in the 5th%) so I am hoping we can get a little time out of it.

When I went to get her out she begged to stay in because she wanted to "snuggle with mama." My heart just melted.

    I think it's awesome that you found a way to wear DD1 and get some stuff done! I haven't done a back carry, but I still wear dd in a Maya wrap around the house and it's the only way I can complete chores

     "DD1 (21/2) is a little itch "

    I'm a little confused by the first sentence of your post though. Are you calling your daughter a little b!tch, or am I misunderstanding?

    lol no! A little itch as in she doesn't sit still. Sorry! It's probably a family saying.

    Phew! I was hoping you meant she was itchy as in couldn't sit still. I'm glad I was reading that wrong!

    That is awesome!  I, too, have recently found the love of wearing an older baby.  Good luck keeping it up!

    I was a little confused by this also and when I began reading I first read it as b!tch but then re-read it and figured out that wasn't what it said (or meant). I am glad you clarified though. 

    It is awesome that you found out DD#1 likes to be worn. Better late than never right? And if she is small for her age I think it would certainly be worth it to make a "manly" MT for your DH to wear her.

    Whatev! DD is a year older than your DD, and I still wear her frequently. She asks to be worn and absolutely loves it still, as do I. She's also small (<3%; 28#, 36") so I think her wearing days will go a bit longer still.
