360 Days!

 
If talking (or reading!) about breastfeeding or pumping makes you uneasy consider this your warning, this post is completely dedicated to such topics!

For 360 days, this little beauty has been my best friend...we watched many shows together, saw a lot of late nights together, went on a lot of car rides together (never while I was driving, btw), but most of all, supplied our beautiful twins with food for 360 days together!  We (Kristoffer and I) are not sad to say goodbye, it is quite freeing to pack it up, but it is the final chapter of the newborn stage in our house.  A few weeks ago we passed along most of our baby items, but passing along this one last item makes it real...our family is through the newborn phase!

We can reclaim our dish-drainer...

...and our counter top!!  The girls will be one in just a few days, and are much to active to sit still for a bottle any longer.  

I was unable to nurse Karter, so I pumped for 11 months...nursed Kaden for 11 months...and am proud to say I pumped for nearly 12 months for TWO babies at one time!  Many (including our ped) doubted that it could be done, but thankfully I was blessed with a great supply and was able to do it.  So long to my Medela pump and bottles...and hello to sippy cups everywhere!

  1. WOO HOO! You won't know what to do without lugging that baby around everywhere. Black Friday shopping will seem like such a breeze this year ;)
