Can we talk? Here's where I discuss random topics, dish some dirt, and answer your questions. BTW, any products recommended are products that I bought myself, not freebies sent in exchange for a positive review.

Serious dish
Lots of news to dish! ---------------------------------
BECO SALE Now get $20 off the Ella and Pony Express 4th Generation Becos. I got a ton of these in and need to clear out room for all the new carriers coming my way. Help me make some space! Regularly $123, now $103. While they last....
------------------------------------
BECO BUTTERFLY COMING SOON The new Beco Butterfly is coming in the next few weeks. This is quite different from the current 4th Generation Beco. See my previous blog post about the 4th Gen vs. Butterfly if you want details. | The new Butterfly will be available in 4 patterns: | Addison:
 |  |
Carnival:
 |  |
Mia:
 |  |
Pony Express:
 |  |
I will stock all 4 of these. After that, there will be 4 MORE patterns coming in February. OK, actually there are 5 new patterns, but I think one is sort of ugly, and I won't be carrying it. This last time around I bought a bunch of carriers in a print that I found ugly, thinking different strokes for different folks, right?
I can barely give them away. So from now on, I'm trusting my own judgment. If you want ugly prints, there are plenty of other places to buy them. -------------------------------------
STROLLER OPTIONS There is a new section on the website called "Stroller Options". I have two kids and found myself actually *needing* a stroller sometimes once #2 came along, yet wanted to avoid those double-wide or double-long jobs. What to do?
PHIL & TED'S SPORT BUGGY My favorite option personally is the Phil & Ted's Sport Buggy Single Stroller with Doubles Kit. Brilliant.
Stroll one kid, or add the extra seat and stroll two, still in the space of one. Switch back and forth as needed. Turns on a dime. Folds up to fit in the trunk of a subcompact car. Great colors and accessories.
I am only selling these by special order for local pickup, as the shipping is beastly. But I can get you a sweet price if you are willing to wait a week or so for your order to come in.
LASCAL BUGGY BOARD MAXI If you already have a favorite single stroller and you just need an extra spot for your older child to ride sometimes...save money and space and pick up a Buggy Board Maxi. It is a nifty little rolling platform that attaches to the back of your stroller. Older kids LOVE to hop on and off. Very durable, high-quality, made in Sweden.
-------------------------------------
PIKKOLO BABY CARRIERS The Pikkolo is my current favorite carrier. Super-durable fabric and nylon webbing. Memory foam in the shoulder pads. Every little detail is done to perfection!
Not on my website yet, but you can see info here: http://www.catbirdbaby.com
And see a little photo tutorial I did on the sleeping hood...shows the Pikkolo used in a back carry with my big heavy 11 month old.
In the above linked tutorial I am wearing an optional padded waistband. Those will be available soon, I don't know how much they will cost. Definitely an awesome, very configurable and customizable carrier. Love it.
I will be carrying these in four colors: Metro Black, Khaki with Olive piping, Appletini, and Somerset. Price will be $123.
--------------------------------------
DYEABLE JETPAKS I got in a shipment of dyeable Jetpaks, another new carrier. Still haven't gotten the info up on my website about them, but they are nice. Incredibly lightweight, less than a pound total. Compare to the Beco at 1lb.3oz, the Patapum at 1lb.10oz., or the Ergo at 2lbs.6ozs.
You can choose from a number of colors, they dye beautifully. I did a batch in dark olive green that look great. These will be $123 dyed.
Again, not on my website yet (sorry!), but you can investigate further at http://www.nanasjetpak.com
--------------------------------------
That's all for now. Enjoy!

Those are very cool baby carriers, I love 'em! I've been pretty partial to the Baby Bjorn, but I like that those can swing around and be worn on the back.
