First outing with sling

my bub in my 2nd sling...sooo observant

Ilham's first outing to the park using sling was to the Christchurch botanic garden + Hagley Park at  3 months old...of course after I  feel comfortable putting her in it..and after  many practice at home!!My 2nd sling was also bought off Trademe for $18.. really nearly new conditions... was a good bargain for me!!! It is Babasling.. a close tail type...with clip at the end of the tail. Padded  shoulder and padded railing are plus factors for it.However adjusting the sling is really horrifying. I need to adjust it several times with the help of my husband to get the comfy state..Once you get the correct/comfy length...the sling is ready to go!! 

Ilham loves the  upright  and also tummy-to-tummy positions...she can look around.What I notice is Ilham becomes very calm, relax and quite..she become very observant...after all the surrounding's  wonders fascinate her , she never fail to fall asleep in the sling..

Other advantages of babywearing:

My new slings ..it's Baby Hawk Mei Tai

Now I got  two more  new slings..one is like-new ( the seller never been used)  pouch sling bought off trademe for  $31 received last Saturday. This is a pouch sling from dulce&zoet..nice one..
the flowery pouch sling by dulce & zoet ..suits a baby girl

Another one is  BabyHawk Mei Tai....fresh.. all the way from the States arrived today. So at present I have 4 slings!! phewww.... see how addicted I am with slings !! well.. I just want to get a taste of every type of slings available..then make my verdict..( do I need to justify my addiction??) will posted in action photos  later..huhu.

My catch from the library

I love going to city libraries here in New Zealand. Simply because their resources never fail to give me satisfaction.. I can find all kind of books, CD and everything I want from cooking,knitting, sewing travelling,self help, DIY , novels etc . I wasn't a library lover back home but now I just another library addict. I used to just buy books that I wanted. So today I pay another visit to the closest library and loan some CD's and books for my baby. These CD's are instrumentals and children songs. some of them are from the baby einstein's collection ( and after searching the www for the price..), I've decided to try them. Last time I loaned music for dreaming CD's and it really worked!! not only on my baby but on me too!!



Music CD's for children 



                                          Free board books!!

There are also Pepi Time ( Every tuesday 930am-10am) for babies and parents to sing nursery rhymes, get to socialize and have some fun !! we went for a session last month and it was really cool! I wish we could have similar facilities/activities back home.
