Unlike the monkeys you visit at the zoo, or the flying monkeys who try to steal your eye... this feedback is all GOOD! (As opposed to the poo that the monkeys at the zoo throw at you.) Although, to be unbiased, I'll make sure I post any other feedback I get as well, as long as it's CONSTRUCTIVE. :-) I try to listen to my customers and make reasonable changes to constantly improve myself and my creations.

~Daryl "Hi!
I know that my husband has already sent you some positive feedback, but I wanted to send you a message as the primary user of the carrier. I was already planning on buying a new carrier to use on our upcoming travels this summer. We are planning four trips, two of which I will be traveling alone with my eleven month old son Jonah. I was considering three different carriers, including a mei tei style carrier. Because this is something I need to be able to get through airport security with efficiently, I needed something that was simple, versatile, and could be put on/taken off by myself. As we approached your booth at the Kent Fest, I was initially just thinking of supporting a local business. I had no idea that once Jonah was in the carrier, it would be love. We only needed to test the carrier for a few minutes before knowing that this was our new carrier. I could tell right off the bat that Jonah was so comfortable, and he enjoyed his new view from my back. As soon as he was in it, he couldn't stop giggling. He waved to everyone we saw, and then fell asleep in it. Just as important as Jonah being comfortable, I was comfortable wearing it. After purchasing the carrier, I did not take it off the entire time that we were at the festival, and I told my husband that I could easily wear it for longer if I needed to. Our other carriers last only an hour at the most, before my back and shoulders start to ache. Not only did we wear this carrier all day during the festival, but I also put him back in it for a picnic and fireworks at Edgewater park in the evening. After a few practice tries, I was able to get Jonah into it without help from my husband. I can easily see us using this carrier not only to get through the airports, but also during our hike in Utah (one of our planned destinations this summer) I never thought that my ring sling could be replaced, but I think that I'll have to find some space for it in our storage closet since we now have a more comfortable and more practical carrier! Just as important to me as its comfort and practicality is the fact that it is all natural and I was able to hear the story of how it was made and dyed. Being born and raised in Kent myself, it meant a lot to me to be able to buy a much needed baby item from a fellow community member. I feel so much more connected to this carrier because it came from my hometown roots, and a fellow mother from Kent. Thank you for a wonderful product. Your business is certainly a great asset to the community of Kent."
~Jess "...for my carrier...I LOVE the print side, and mostly use it with my son on my back with the print showing (Its so trendy looking!). I'm not really a big fan of brown so I don't use that side much. I'm also not a huge fan of the pocket showing. And also b/c I usually wear it backwards I don't get to take advantage of the clips as much---so maybe if the carrier is reversible you can add a "D" clip on both sides? I would love that! For the warmer weather: is it possible to do a lightweight carrier? I would love a "summer version" made with a lighter weight fabric. I LOVE the sqeaker/sound--- what a cute idea! and I also love how comforable it is to wear. I used to be a gymnast so many times backpacks hurt my back, but yours is so natural and comfortable. I also LOVE how it turns into a blanket.....sooo cool!"

-- oh yeah and you're right he loves when i run with it on hahaha he laughs his little head off! " ~SammyJo "Yes! I did receive the monkey carrier. Thank you so much! Funny I just read your email as earlier today, I was just practicing putting it on and off, using a stuffed teddy bear as the "baby"! My sister thinks I'm crazy... it's so warm and cozy, too, I've pulled out the blanket part, and use it while I'm watching TV... I can't believe it's still chilly in *** ***** and we are already in April!"

"Did I tell you? I use Garet's blanket every morning in our car. It's a lot easier to just keep it in there, and the motorcycles on the material keep him busy. He sits there every morning and just points at the motorcycles over and over saying 'motorcycle, motorcycle, motorcycle...' Not to mention it's so soft. He loves it."
