Help - How to Clean House with a 6 Month Old Who Hates Being Put Down?

We relocated not long before I got pregnant so have no family or close friends for thousands of miles to help watch him. I was on bedrest for months before the birth so things started to pile up even then. Fast forward to 6 months later and our little guy just hates being put down in his crib or in a swing for more than 10 mins. During his naps I try to be quiet and not make much noise so as not to wake him and usually it's my only chance to eat while he sleeps (his naps are usually short, anyways).

Taking a 1 Year Old to a Baseball Game

Hi Moms! My hubby and I are taking our 1 year old son (yeah!!) to his first Tigers game this weekend for his birthday. Just wondering...should we take a stroller, get a backpack carrier(which we were going to do anyways for other future events) or just carry him? The problem is he is 26 pounds and between the two of us it can be exhausting. I am planning on doing more walking around than sitting, depending on how his day is going obviously. Any other advice besides the sunscreen, ,hat, etc. would be great as well. Thanks! H.

Need Advice on Good Baby Carrier

I am looking to purchase the kind of baby carrier that you wear. They can get pricy and I was wondering what other moms like and don't like about their carriers. My son is 3 months old. Do I get one for infants? A sling? What features should I look for? I will probably be using it for my next kid too, so I want it to last, and I am willing to spend good money on the right one. Thanks!!
