Glory Baby Mei Tai

After giving birth to David and wearing him in my Moby, I became obsessed with the idea of wearing him. I wanted to try a whole bunch of different carriers, including a Mei Tai. Thankfully, a really nice WAHM named Minda was doing her 2nd round of testing for her Mei Tai's and I totally signed up!

And I am totally in love with Glory Baby Mei Tai now!

I love that they are reversible - I have a girl and a boy and I don't need to purchase 2 MT's for each gender!

It has an attached hood that when rolled up really does a fantastic job of head support for my sleeping baby.

The padded straps were super comfy. This was my first MT and it is almost as comfy as my Beco Butterfly 2 - talk about impressed!

It has a contoured body which fits my 4 month old and 2 year old really well.

I picked out the fabric - I am a totally nut about customization and this MT screams "annie!"

Lizzie loves to be worn around the house, it is almost like a game to her. When are are out and about though, it is David I wear. But this MT fits her so well, and can you see how happy she is?

This was my first attempt at using the headrest when he fell asleep. As you can see I didn't get it as snug as he probably needed, but it worked very well! And I am just loving this fabric (I bought it, but I had no idea how fantastic it would look on a MT)

The hood has a brown fabric panel that can hide the other fabric. I love that my fabric is on the hood too.

I was getting a little better at the hood tying here, but he was awake and looking all around, thus loosening my knot :)

Tonight Josh wanted to wear David while he swept and mopped the floor (Ladies, he is ALL MINE!!) As you can see David was more interested in eating the MT and Daddy's shirt than anything else, but he was happy the whole time! The MT fit Josh pretty well...I trimmed the straps to fit me thinking Josh would only use the Beco Butterfly 2...I didn't know he would actually want to try this one! Well, the straps DO fit Josh, but there is only like 2 inches left after wrapping and tying! (That is what my 6'2 hubbie gets for marrying a 5'4 gal!)

I am actually grabbing for this more than my Ring Sling. It is my go to carrier around the house. I still like the Beco for grocery shopping since I am just not good enough at "on the go" back wraps yet. But as David gets older I'll get better!
