Sarah and Becky’s Story!

Anyone who’s been near me in the last 18 months knows that I’m how much of a Hugabub Devotee I am. It saved my sanity – not to mention my arms and back – when Sarah was younger. However at 18 months and 10.5kg, it’s getting too hard for me to carry her in it anymore – not mention that the hugabub will very soon be getting a new tenant!!

So this week I joined another group – the Ergo Fanatics. I’d been hearing rave revues about the Ergo on Bubhub for.. well, forever really, so thanks to Jim’s tax check (!!) we took the plunge and bought a very snazzy black one.

I love it , Love it, LOVE IT!!! Even 6 months pregnant I can pop Sarah on my back and walk for ages without my arms and back giving out. Actually, it probably even acts as a bit of a counter balance to my expanding front.

Sarah wasn’t as excited as I was when the package arrived… but all the same she humoured me while I tried out the new toy. I’ll get some much better pictures of it tomorrow when we hit Southbank for RiverFire.

Last Sunday we went for a family walk to the park – Kormos too. Sarah can now manage the whole walk there, though her route is probably 3 times longer on account of all the detours to look at all the interesting plants, rocks, grates, signs, pebbles, leaves, flowers, sticks… you get the idea… that she finds along the way!

When she hits the playground, Sarah is about 5 years younger and 4 feet shorter than she thinks she is…and a whole lot too fearless for her Dadda’s comfort!

Tooth Number 10 has just broken through – bringing our Tooth Total into the double digits. I don’t think Sarah is as excited about that as I am, poor little critter.
