Babywearing Quotes To Share

We did some great shopping today; got some amazing deals and of course Amelia was riding in style in the Beco baby carrier. I just have to add two funny quotes I heard from people, along with the regular "look at that" and stares from people that have obviously never seen a child being carried in a carrier before. If you don't want to get noticed, don't wear your baby in the mall! =)

"Look at that monkey" - from a little girl. Her parents had to tell us sorry for staring and as they were walking away - "It's a monkey." Ha ha!

"It's a backpack... it's a babypack" - a family thought it was quite neat to see a baby on your back! It was like they wanted to come up and try her on for themselves!

These made me laugh today so I thought I'd share!

hey there, Andrea! :)
I used to get comments and stares all the time cuz I would be leading my "pack" on leashes...lol.
But in my defense, at least they were colorful! (and very safe, to boot!)
And I slept like a log every night cuz I knew exactly where my babies were all the time, lol!
But the ones I always appreciated were the ones who had a funny comment, like yours... ;)...
