    Morning! :hello: When we were talking about clothes vs. babygros the other day, somebody (can't remember who!) asked me to post a photo of Andrew in "big boy clothes", so here's today's outfit!

    P1020965.jpg

    eta. I have a baby with cold hands, and an OH with hot legs/feet to the point where he has trouble sleeping. Any suggestions? (Other than letting Andrew hold Marley's feet!)

    :rotfl: Weezlie. Molly is trying very hard to say hello, it comes out as heyyyooooooooooooooooo ... and the recipients are invariably my boobs. Which is, I grant you, an improvement from shouting abooooooooooooob as she launches herself face-first into them and extremely mannerly to acknowledge them before she starts eating but I dream of hearing mama - or just a word directed at my face. I didn't mean to give birth to a lecherous building site...

    I'm feeling tired and cranky. And you? This last trimester must be hard going?

    Very cute tigs :)

    Oh, I have a sling question. Is a wrap sling suitable for older babies? I'd quite like to be able to carry Molly after she grows out of the babybjorn, but I'm not sure what would be best. And a comment on different parenting styles - I finally met my friend's dinky baby yesterday. She was 8 weeks early and even now at 2 months old (we're right at her EDD) she's not up to Molly's birth weight. My friend uses a pram because she thinks the baby's too small for the wrap - I used a pouch sling and then the BB because I felt Molly was too small (is too small :)) to be so far away from me in the pram. I've no criticism to make, just that it was an interesting contrast IYKWIM.

    So weird to hold such a tiny baby. Really - she fit along my forearm with room to spare - crazy to think that Molly used to be that size and now she's a big monster :rotfl:
