seeking participants for a new babywearing project

Have you been enjoying following along with the adventures detailed in The Sling Diaries?  I cannot believe how quickly the six-month project has been flying by.  The participants are currently on their fifth out of six monthly themes, and the beauty, fun, adventure, and love that their entries have documented thus far has been so rewarding to witness.

Does babywearing have a special place in your heart and life?  Would you like to be considered as a participant in a future iteration of The Sling Diaries?  If so, drop me a line -- I would love to hear from you!

Thanks, and be sure not to miss the upcoming posts, unfolding over the next several weeks.  You can follow along on FB and Pinterest.

  10. i'd love to be involved with a baby-wearing project! my sakura bloom sling has been the number #1 way i get my little biscuit to sleep and to comfort when we travel and it's the only way we bop around town together. documenting the precious moments we have together would be such a privilege; i've grown to anticipate when new pictures will be posted on pinterest and have visited several of the sites to see more details. i also plan on continuing to wear her as she grows (she's now 6 months) and with any future kids we have.

  12. I would love to be involved! I didn't discover babywearing until my 3rd baby, and I'm IN LOVE! I wish I would have discovered it earlier! Baby girl is 4 months old and she loves her Sakura Bloom ring sling! We go everywhere in it! :)

  14. I have loved all of the sling diaries you have done over the past couple of years! We have worn our son, who is now 2, since he was a wee little thing. From hiking to beach combing, to mowing the grass and cooking dinner, from dancing to grocery shopping, to riding bikes in the islands and picking the fruit from our trees...we have found so much joy and liberation in including him in our everyday activities and to our far away adventures. He still loves riding on our backs and seeing the world from where we see it :) We would love to included as our toddler still pals along in our slings! Regardless, love love love these series and can't wait to see what's next!

  17. I guess you probably have enough people now, but I'd love to take part. My little one is now a hefty 18mo, but she still lets me carry her :-) My favourite sling is my bright pink linen ring sling, but we also have an Ergo for longer trips & hikes in the woods. I've loved reading the Sling Diaries and it would be amazing to be part of it!

  18. I just recently heard about baby wearing and will be doing it with my baby when I have her in November. I would be interested in being a part of your project.

  20. Just heard about your blog and The Sling Diaries via Babywearing International DC-MD-VA! I'm enjoying the Sling-ers' blogs as I walk my four-month-old to sleep... I wear her in a wrap as I pace the length of the house, avoiding Legos and shoes abandoned by the older two children. I'd love to be involved in another Babywearing Project.

  21. Tried the link to contact and it was a broken link for me for some reason. Would love to be in the babywearing project. I currently use a Sakura Bloom sling with my almost six month old son. And he comes to work with me at the WIC office I work at. It is a life saver. My two year old also likes to sit in the sling, and my husband and I are expecting our third baby, so this would be so fun to document how much babywearing does help out!

  25. I would love to get in on this! I'm about to start wearing my lil' lady bean in a Sakura Bloom! The lovely Mary Catherine sold me on it. :)

  26. What an awesome idea for a project! I wear my 7 month old all the time in my Pure Linen Sakura Bloom ring sling. In fact, we just took a trip into Chicago and I wore him on the "L", at Willis Tower (Sears Tower), etc. It was so much easier to get around as compared to using a stroller!

    Here is a link to a picture of me wearing my son from the top of Willis Tower -> http://www.adventuresasasmalltownmom.com/2012/09/newest-fans-of-giordanos-pizza.html

    It would be so much fun to be involved in your next Sling Diaries project.
