Cute baby from what you can see. He looks so peaceful. Keri looks great!

WOW!!! That sling had better have incredible features for $350

River has gotten so big already!

When we first saw this sling, people were giving Keri flack for spending $350 on it–but it looks like she’s getting a lot of use out of it!

Better than blowing the same amount on a pair of pants or something else that she’ll wear only once or twice (especially after being photographed–many celebs have commented that they can’t wear a dress or piece of clothing in public again after being photographed in it, though there are many exceptions to this, especially the “everyday” clothes stars wear when not on the red carpet).

Does anyone know if there is a weight/size limit suggested for slings? That is, do sling manufacturers suggest a certain weight limit for their slings? I have no idea, but am just curious.

Sarah’s note: Usually about 45 lbs. Personally I switch from a hip carry in a pouch to my Ergo when they hit about 25 lbs.

Keri looks so cute.

Ashley – According to their web site, 39 lbs! Wow! Brad and Angie need one of these. They look very comfortable, and the web site even has pics of people toting their dogs around in them. Wish they were around when I had my son! I bet they’re great for colicky babies!

- Sheri on

The sling could have been a gift from the store? By wearing it she is giving them free publicicty with websites like this amazing one! Clever marketing strategy for the company.

Even if it isnt a gift she is using it lots so it really doesnt matter!

If Keri wants to spend $350 on a baby sling, let her. She earned/continues to earn her G’s through our obssessions of celebrity and putting her face out there, thus sacrificing her personal life and privacy. I can’t say I would buyone if I was in that position, but, I would consider it! It is beautiful!

It’s so nice to finally see a picture of a celeb wearing a sling correctly! Way to go Keri!
