Hey Babywearing Mamas!

14 Jul

I just discovered a cool contest where you can win several types of baby carriers to try out and use with your little one. I am desperate to find some new options for this baby, so this is right up my alley…I love wearing my babies and being able to keep them snuggly and close when they’re small. So here’s the link, if you’re interested. Several of these are on my wish list already, and this package is a great mixture of the different options available for babywearing.

Win the Essential Babywearing Stash from Along for the Ride (one Beco Butterfly, one Hotsling baby pouch, one BabyHawk Mei Tai, one Zolowear Ring Sling, and one Gypsy Mama Wrap)

(Just an FYI, I do earn extra entries every time someone uses this link…I just want to be clear! But it is a nice package, especially for a new mom who’s eager to try out several different things to figure out what works best for her and her baby!)

 

Shoulda known better…

Against my better judgment, we used the lasagna recipe I posted Saturday, rather than the one Kim shared on her blog. The reasons for this were simple…the ingredients we needed for that one were less expensive than what we needed for Kim’s. Right now, price is a big factor in the shopping! Since we had almost all of the ingredients for the original, it seemed like the best move.

WRONG.

It wasn’t terrible, but it definitely wasn’t *the* lasagna recipe I’ve been looking for. I should have known when it called for cheddar cheese that something wasn’t quite right! Won’t be making that mistake again.

So Kim, next week we’ll be getting the ricotta cheese and making your dad’s version. I can’t wait.
