| Happy Babywearing! |
I am thrilled to be hosting my very first giveaway! I'm even happier that I'm partnering with a company and product that I truly stand behind for it. For over two years now I've used, loved, and recommended Ergo carriers. I recently joined their blogging team and now I'm so glad to be able to offer West Philly Mama readers a chance to win their choice of an ErgoBaby Bundle Of Joy which combines an original or organic Ergo carrier with a matching infant insert (such a good idea - especially for gifts or registries). Are you expecting? Do you have a newborn? Do you know someone who is/does? Do you like to wear your baby? Well, then you are in the right place.
I'm a long-time Ergo user and have used several versions over the years. I am a fan of the carriers and I feel like I have a pretty good feel for the product. I've been using the organic version in navy for the last week - and it hasn't disappointed.
Despite feeling like an ErgoBaby expert, I was pleasantly surprised by a new feature: They extended the waist belt on the original version! My first Ergo was an original and I was on the cusp of needing a belt extension (my next one was a Performance which has a longer belt) - so I expected this one to be quite snug a whole baby later. But I found that it fit comfortably with belt slack to spare!

The Bundle of Joy came in the mail right before I left to visit my family in Pittsburgh - and I dug the box it came in. It would be super easy to gift wrap and the easy to understand diagram makes it less intimidating to a new babywearer. The organic fabric is super soft and I really like the deep blue color. I couldn't wait to try it out.

| ErgoBaby Bundle of Joy: Carrier AND Insert |
I nestled Zoe into the infant insert and snapped her into a little baby burrito.

The sun/rain hood came in handy when I realized that Leo had done some "repacking" of the diaper bag and there was no sunhat for Zoe.

It was nice to enjoy a coffee break with my mom and catch up calmly while Zoe slept comfortably and soundly (and Leo stayed at home to play with Aunt Lissa). My mom said that the feature she'd recommend for improvement is a cup holder. Ha.

Of course Leo wanted a turn in it - and I was comfortable wearing my 27 lb baby, too. So newborn to toddler - it's a great all around carrier.

So now that I've reminded you of what you already knew: I think Ergo Carriers are swell - let's get to the giveaway part.
Enter to win your very own Bundle Of Joy! Good luck!
