Summer break is here.
The kids have been out for a week. We've had a sleep over, some restful days, some busy days and some big changes. Big changes for me, anyway.
I've sort-of been weaning Evelyn for a month or so, she drinks cows milk now so I've only been nursing a few times a day. The main one at night. The past few nights Ricky has been putting her to bed, she fusses for a few minutes, which I can not stand to hear and then she's out. Its really sweet listening to him hum to her while he's rocking her and trying to calm her down. Its just hard for me to hear her upset because she wants me. I know it will get easier, she's having some seperation anxiety from me, so I'm trying to give her extra attention during the day. I know its hard for her too. Tonight she fell asleep in my arms playing with her sunglasses. It was bittersweet, she didn't even fuss for me to nurse her. Not that I want her to fuss, but you know. Change has always been hard for me, this has been my life for 13 months. Its hard letting go....But I'm proud of myself for making it this far.We will be ok.
Life is good.
Here are a few pictures of our week. It flew by..........
