I have two NoJo BabySlings, which are  great when the babies are small, but as they get bigger, my shoulders and back really take a beating, so I was looking for something that distributed the weight a bit more.

A Phone Application

I have been trying and failing to wake up before the kids and Joshua, so that I am able to have some quiet time before facing the day. However, I am very bad at obeying an alarm clock, unless I have to be somewhere. So, the other day, I put a new alarm clock app on my phone, as the other one seemed to never go off,...
