Bessie the Milk Cow has hung up her udders

Yep, you read the header correctly....hung up the udders!!! For my birthday, Jack gave me the gift of freedom. He decided that he had enough of breastfeeding and weaned himself! WAHOO!!!! I am loving this. My goal was to breastfeed for 4 months. Well, we did it. However, we are both moving on to greener pastures and the happy world of formula!!

Things I will like about not breastfeeding....
1. Staying dressed ALL day long
2. Sleeping on my stomach
3. Leaving him with Jay for more than 2 hours
4. Being able to feed him where ever we are without having to go find a private place

The list goes on and on :) So happy!!!!

He had his 4 month check up on Friday. He weighs a whopping 12 lb. 14 oz. (10th percentile, poor little runt) and is 26 inches long (90th percentile!!). We also started him on rice cereal today. He loved it and totally gets the concept of the spoon :) Child genius I tell ya. Sorry for the commentary in the video below. I didn't know Jay was recording :)








Someone should have told Jack not to talk with food in his mouth. How rude.



Jack tried out the Bumbo. He was less than impressed. Good thing I borrowed this from my sister and didn't actually buy it . The face says it all :)
