Dog in a sling
In Asher’s sling, that is. 
I tried my hand at a bit of sling-making this week. I must say, I’m just a little bit proud of myself. I found EASY directions on the Internet, bought the material, sewed it up, attached the ring, and VOILA! Instant sling! It actually only took me about 10 minutes to make and cost all of $15. My problem with the “store-bought” slings is, ahem…my top half. I couldn’t find one that would comfortably accomodate the girls AND a baby. LOL Plus, anything on the Internet was $60 and up. So, I conjured my inner Martha Stewart and saved myself a bunch of money and got a comfy sling to boot. My 18 pound Chiweenie, Chili, had no complaints, so Asher should like it too :)

Glad to hear from you. I have been checking in from time to time on your blog as well. I will keep you in my prayers that court goes well. We had problems last year and were stuck in one of those investigations and we never thought Delylah would make it home before the closure but she did. I would love to get together when you guys get home.

That is awesome! If you want to test it on a slightly heavier doggie, our Pug mix Maddy would love to be toted around all day! It looks great! Nice job Martha!
