Whenever we go out I carry Dylan in a Snugli, and Thade rides in the cart. I often get strange looks and odd comments when someone sees the little guy in the carrier. At least every trip to the store is interesting.
Yesterday we were shopping at Target. My mom and Thade were looking at toys, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to head over to the baby section. I was carrying Dylan in the Snugli, and he was happy as could be. We went to the baby wipe/baby wash isle and I looked at the shelves for some good deals. I noticed a young couple looking at the wipes, and then staring back at me, whispering back and forth to each other. Just then the young man said “Just ask her, she is wearing a baby.” I tried my hardest not to laugh, but that totally cracked me up.
The couple was looking for diapers, but they could only find wipes. I took them over to the diaper section and helped them pick out a pack for a gift. I was happy to help, and still giggling about the comment.
I also had a few Target coupons for baby items. One coupon was for $3.00 off A&D Ointment, I can always use that in the stock closet. I ended up paying $.94 for a 4oz tube, I was very happy with my find 😉 The shopping trip went great, and the boys had way too much fun.
My husband always wears the kids in the snugli when they’re small. He sees that as his job, I’m not allowed LOL. Although when he’s not around I take Sammy out in the sling.
Wasn’t that nice of you to help out the young couple looking for diapers. Maybe you should have asked the store for a commission LOL.
Thanks Susan. That is so cool that your hubby carries the baby in the Snugli. I bet Sammy has fun having Mommy carry her too 🙂
