I was just confused because none of the photos suggest nursing. Now, I see that some of the previous comments mention nursing. I guess I overlooked them last time :).

If...I have studied child development and childcare. If by nursing, you mean breast feeding, then it is highly appropriate for a one year old to still be nursed. Experts recommend breast feeding until 2 years of age. Breast milk has many benefits. Some of which are: 1- Breast milk is high in fat and low in protein, which is ideal for a developing nervous system, 2: during breast feeding, disease-fighting antibodies are transferred from the mother to the baby, 3: breast milk is easily digestible, which is ideal for developing digestive systems. 4: babies who are beast-fed for a longer amount of time tend to have a leaner growth pattern (their bodies are an ideal weight rather than obese) which continues through the preschool years and oftentimes beyond. <br />However, I don't see any photos which suggest that Israel is still breast feeding. If you are referring to the baby carrier shown in several of the photos, this is not inappropriate either. It is a good safety measure for keeping Israel near and safe when the family is on the move. <br />I am not criticizing, just clarifying :).
