Once in a rare while I will still put Audrie in her sling and let her hang out while I clean or cook dinner. It had been quite a while since I'd gotten it out, but the other day she came out of the closet dragging it behind her saying "ride? ride?". So I let her chill in there while I vacuumed. I'm not sure how much longer I can squeeze her in this thing, but she still loves it!
