Congratulations to our Winner, Annie Browne
Watch for the next Labor Day to Labor Day 12-week Giveaway this coming Sunday.
More prizes coming your way!
If there is one thing I wish I had from day one of Cash?s life, it would be an Ergobaby Performance Carrier. With all of the hiking, trekking, moving, and walking the Powell Pack does, this sure would have made our life easier.
I was introduced to the Ergobaby Carrier this last summer in Colorado. A friend and I were taking our combined 5 kids (6, if you include the baby on board ?) for a hike in the beautiful mountains of Canon City, CO, and Cash ? bless his heart ? was being the usual Cashy Boy?super rambunctious! I didn?t have any desire to pull him up those mountains with the risk of him running over a ledge. Nor did I feel like carrying him on my hip the whole way. I was 6 months pregnant for crying out loud!
Ergobaby to the rescue! Much to my surprise, the Ergobaby Carrier my friend lent me not only carried Cash?s 2 year old body on my back, but carried him comfortably for both of us. And until this point, Cash had NEVER been a fan of carriers!! EVER.
I?m sold.
After doing some research of my own, I realized Ergobaby has a line specifically designed for active parents like us! I thought the one I wore was comfortable for hiking?I can only imagine how comfortable the Performance Carrier is. I can?t wait to try it out!
You can win one of these $135 amazing carriers for yourself!

Every parent needs one of these! We love family hikes. Probably the most memorable was 6 years ago when the entire family including grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins all met in Turkey Run State park for 2 days of camping and hiking the trails. The best part was everyone was together for tons of family time & memories and the kids loved it!
I plan to enter this drawing to be able to give my good friend who is pregnant this gift. We have gone on many hikes together and I would love the chance to go on hikes with her and her new baby!
I LOVE the ergo carriers. I want one so very badly but there is no way I could afford it
I’m so glad you posted this. I recently had a baby and trying to go on hikes this summer was so hard on my body (not just because I am a little out of shape, but the carrier I have, kills my back.) Friends of ours have a big backpack for carrying your child while hiking, but I like the design of the ergobaby because it is more compact. I love that you said it was comfortable for both if you. It sounds like just what I need!
My favorite hike was almost two years ago because it was my brother and his son. We don’t get to have quality time like that anymore, now that we’re both adults and have our own responsibilities. It was a hill at Rising Park in Lancaster, Ohio. It wore me out because I wasn’t in shape then. I was 73 pounds heavier than I am now, so I was beat, but it was an amazing feeling when I reached the top. It was a wonderful, much needed brother-sister time. Looking forward to doing it again soon, especially now I’m a lot more in shape.
I have recently started my weightloss journey and am excited to be doing fun outdoor activities. I have a rambunctious 2 yr old that I would love to take on a hike! I am in Mesa, AZ and so we do close things like the Wind caves or A mountain.
My favorite hike was in Big Sky Montana! I can’t remember the exact name but it took about 3 hours to get to a gorgeous lake. I’m in live with MT.
I would use it on our trail walks. We live next to an airport and my son loves being outside looking at the airplanes.
Heidi,
My husband and I are working to get fit. Two years ago he was diagnosed with End Stage Renal Failure caused by high blood pressure and diabetes. At 38 he continues to work towards weight loss so he can get on the donor list. Your BMI needs to be 35 to be on that list and right now he is at a 39/40. So as a family we are working to get active. We walk nightly and enjoy getting our 4 children out of the house. All boys!! Three weeks ago we were blessed again to have been chosen by two of our boys birth mom to take their little brother. So at 42, we are proud parents of a 3 week old. The Ergo Pack will be used to make sure we keep our new baby close to assist with bonding and to keep us moving.
Living in Oregon, our favorite hike is around the Columbia River Gorge and Silver Falls. We also like to do urban hikes around the area.
Thanks
Leslie
We love hiking and anything outdoors! When I lived in Duluth, MN my daughter was just born and my cousin introduced me to the carrier. Absoutely love it! My daughter lived in it from a few wks old til well 3 years old sometimes lol. We could always use another for our son;)
