Here is a wet day at Mt Cootha... our little mate gets an armchair ride and is getting very relaxed in the pack... I have leant him out a bit to get a photo but have to say that the Wilderness Equipment childcarrier is an absolute godsend... when a child leans like this in other pack the weight transfer would be very uncomfortable for the dad... but with the 'X' frame of this pack a significant proportion of the childs weight gets transferred to the diagonal hip and so remains very even and balanced... also the raincover actually is effective and covers all the pack! amazing! 
We got back to Binna Burra in the Lamington National Park on the last weekend - finally! ...been a myriad of little chores and events that were conspiring to keep us away... our little mate has really taken to gadgets especially if Dad or Mum have just been using them!

One of the things about new beds is that little boys can climb out of them if they are not that tired... he then stands at the door and crys out, "Mummeeee" ... waits a bit then, "Daddeeeee". If no action is forthcoming then we may hear a cry starting from a small attention getter and once or twice a large attention getter... but mostly he'll settle for a listen to see who might be around, perhaps a little "Hello?" and then a little hand slides out under the door... what Daddy can resist not having an ET moment with his little fella?!!
