Tonks also likes to play with rubber bands, but we have to watch her, because she will eat it. We found out last night that Kitty also likes to play will the crunch berries in cap'n crunch. Tonks likes scarves, but that involves me having to dangle it... We've also found clothes pins can be entertaining. They each have one cat toy that they like. Kitty has a fish (or two or three) that once was on a string, but Tonks took care of that. And Tonks has this one particular mouse, no other mouse will do. We will think they have disappeared forever when they magically reappear. Kitty likes to chase things, so when she was still a little bitty kitten, we got her this motorized mouse thinking she would go crazy, but it made an awful noise and scared her...Jaclyn in Aggielandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06229077082963352892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2657912610170806601.post-78342814399629038862009-12-11T07:47:13.113-06:002009-12-11T07:47:13.113-06:00Hey! I saw your question on Adventures in Babywear...Hey! I saw your question on Adventures in Babywearing and thought I could help. I have two boys, one 3 and one 18 months, so in order to really survive, I babywear number two everywhere (though now that number one is bigger, not as much is needed) anyways, When I have to use the bathroom, or number one has to go potty, I usually just keep wearing the baby. Sounds weird, but, you have them on your hip or front anyway, so just let them "sit" in your lap while you go. If they are on your side, kinda move them more to the lap area-if they are on your back, (when they are older) if you only have to pee, you can squat and they will be fine. <br /><br />Sounds weird, but if is doable to leave them on-almost like just wearing a coat when you go :) I hope that helped. Try it at home first if you are nervous and you'll see it actually doesn't cause any problem. <br /><br />Also, I would recommend getting a ring sling (you can find some affordable ones out there) because the pouch slings don't get as tight a fit-the rings slings are the same, but adjustable for a tighter hold. pouch slings are great for when the babies are older and can hold their heads up. I use mine all the time now for quick in and out errand runs. <br /><br />And also, don't worry, IF you don't like babywearing, don't feel pressure. I love it, but there are a few moms out there that can give pressure and loud opinions for or against anything you'll do, so just stay confident with what makes you and baby happy. <br /><br />Take care!<br /><br /><br />Take careMichehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09943079762244070030noreply@blogger.com
