Baby carriers are so cute and so convenient. Having my son close to me and not wondering around makes me feel like he is safer. He is a toddler now and oh my can he run! When we go out to the farmers market or to an outdoor event with large crowds I worry about him not wanting to hold hands. He is insistent that he is a big boy who does not hold hands. But a piggy back ride, well that is beyond fun! The wiggle worm he is a traditional piggy back ride was out of the question, plus his little arms and legs are too short for it. I knew we needed a carrier that I could carry him on my back safely.
I selected the Boba Baby Carrier as the carry we need since it holds a toddler up to 45lbs. Much higher of a weight limit than most carriers. My sister Sam has a Boba for her son and she loves it. She suggested to me to try one for my son. The new Kangaroo pattern is so cute. I told my son he can be my little joey and go for a ride in the carrier. He thought it was a great idea!
At first my son thought I was nuts trying to put him into the carrier on my back. He was making me laugh with his Uh No and Help Me as we were trying to figure it out. I re-read the instructions and realized I was doing it wrong. (Note to self, make sure you read instructions before involving a wiggling toddler.)
I had my husband help me put my son in the carrier on my back. I have a bit of a weaker arm on my left side making it hard to do it by myself but once he was in my son was having a blast. I had to explain to him to not pull mommies pony tail but after that he was hanging out enjoying being in the carrier.
We went to our local Farmers Market and he rode in the Boba Baby Carrier just fine. It made it easier to get the items I needed first and then let him down to walk around. I know the carrier will come in handy for times I am out alone and need to have my son on my back to be able to get things done. Plus when my husband and I expand our family in the future we will have an adorable carrier for the new baby.
