i'm sure there are plenty of volunteers to look after it till your shoulder is better then you can receive it & be excited all over again.

Welcome btw

Youvebinaced, as trix said, the sling is indeed blue but the shoulder it is supporting is still very much purple!

As for all those lovely offers of babysitting my new arrival...I think I will take a rain cheque and continue to sit in it on the driveway and pretend.........sad but a tiny weeny bit true!

I don't think anywhere here could claim they wouldn't do the same. I think when mine arrives if I can't think of an excuse to drive somewhere I'll just sit in it for a bit.
