Cooking and fitnessing with Jakob
I found out that the best way to make Jakob stop crying is lifting him up and down. It can be done with hands, but also with legs, which also keeps me fit and I can skip a game of badminton or two with my friend. Please keep in mind, that I don’t practise this exercising regularly. We just posed for a photo, of course. :) I had to write this so people won’t report me to social service or something.
But sometimes, someone has to cook a lunch. And during that, it’s hard to lift Jakob up and down. So I use another effective method – I put him in this very long cloth, like women of Angola usually do, and then dance a little, back and forth, so Jakobs keeps shaking. He also keeps quiet if dancing is active enough. The lunch was delicious, by the way.

Wow, the baby cloth looks fantastic. How did you learn to fold/tie it properly?

Wraparound baby carrier instructions are easy to find all over the web. Look at Ellaroo site, for example: http://ellaroo.com
