I missed the Clemson meeting again. I had a birth. Why do they always happen around babywearing day? So, maybe Janet or Jenny will comment on how the Clemson meeting went.
The Greenville meeting was not well-planned. Carey was planning to run the show since I was at a birth. But as I was leaving my birth, she got called to one! Maybe we need to bring in a back-up meeting coordinator who is not on call. Anyone? Anyone?
Anyway, back to the Greenville meeting. We had no subject and I was zonked. I suggested we talk about babywearing for the holidays. Then realized…um, that is a dumb topic. Abby rescued me by discussing a babywearing incident she had in a parking lot. That led to talk of funny comments people give and how best to spread the babywearing cheer. We had a great turn-out and I wish we could have stayed longer for chatting. With evenings getting dark earlier, it felt later than it was.
I feel like I was supposed to link something. Oh yes! This ridiculous “babywearing” product Jenn mentioned: Hands-Free Car Seat Carrier
LOL. I’ve seen pictures of those things but never actually in person. It’s so funny how the model is grinning like it’s so comfortable, even though it looks like she can’t stand up straight. The reviews are funny too. One lady said she always gives it as a gift at baby showers. That would be a really tough one to pretend you liked.
We didn’t talk much about babywearing at the Clemson meeting, btw. Ellen and her boys were there, and also Kristen and her boys. They played football, and Suzi tried to join in. Janet and Jackson came later and the topics of conversation were mostly births (Ellen’s and in general) and breastfeeding.
