And another Baby Bjorn

Not everything was photographed. Some of it is seasonal and will be pictured on the appropriate holiday.

Dad asked for another Baby Bjorn because it is the easiest of the three baby carriers to use. And when one parent is using one, the other would like to have another available.

The Snugli is nice. Baby can ride on his chest facing in or out, or on his back. However, the Snugli's versatility makes it harder to use. Too many buckles take to long to do and undo. The Moby is the most comfortable, but wrapping it around the body takes time and patience. And Dad never seems to get it on the same way twice. The Bjorn goes on and comes off easily and baby is loaded or unloaded in a few seconds with minimal distrubance.

The Baby Bjorn is used by Dad to sooth, so minimizing the amount of time to calm crying is important. Plus, he's putting it on and taking it off several times a day, so its simplicity and ease of use is welcome.
