PSA--Caution using slings

I've mentioned a few times that I really liked carrying Isabel in a sling. Well, I did, very much so. However, I feel compelled to mention the recall of some infant slings. This was not the brand I used, but now that I have read the recall, I'm not sure if I would use one again on an infant under 4 months old.

Car...yah, i saw the news story on Today this morning... the same exact sling that i used... i wrote about it on my blog...
it about broke my heart to see the mom crying on TV...i cried...
i just don't know how i would have ever dealt with looking down at K in the sling and seeing her dead...
and the weird part...the sling was wonderful...but deep down, it made me nervous...
perhaps that mother's instinct thing...it's something i should listen to, eh?

:) loved reading your posts (latest)...makes me feel a little better that my little girl isn't the only little shrimp :) hehe :)
i'll be curious to see how she does with the super calorie stuff... :)
it looks like Madelyn and Pierce are growing well, tho... :) i bet that you have A LOT of fun each day... :)
keep smilin' :) tell JD and the kids we said hi! :)
oh, and maybe this summer, we can meet up - we would love to go to the zoo or something...it would be fun to do it with you guys... :) i'll let you know as the time gets closer! :)
