I have not had a lot of opportunity to wear LucyLillie much, since everyone wants to hold her, but with Isaac and Caleb, I wore them everywhere and all day at home, unless they were nursing.
They were in my carrier when I cooked, when I did laundry, when I gave Creative Memories scrapbooking shows, when we went to church… They were in the Ergo or carrier all the time. Caleb still gets in the Ergo when he is tired. I could always put him into the Ergo when he was a toddler and he would fall asleep.
We did go into town on a walk this evening, though, and I got to wear LucyLillie in my Ergo while I pushed Caleb in the stroller. I love it that they are attached and still able to look around and be a part of life.
