Crying over spilled milk...

James is tall enough and has arms long enough to reach things on the counter. Although, he has not yet mastered getting cups from the counter without spilling. I watched as he grabbed the cup and then was crying over his spilled milk on 6/26... I had to grab the camera and take his picture before cleaning the mess!

*******************************

This was also the week that James decided to stop nursing. I had every intention of continuing until he was at least two, but he had just lost interest. He stopped nursing on my left side just after Thanksgiving, so I should be relieved that now I get to be "even" but I'm truly sad. I loved nursing. I hated to stop nursing Jemma... it was such a special, truly once-in-a-lifetime bonding time, but once I started the Lovenox shots in pregnancy with James I had no choice but to stop. And now James just refused to nurse. In fact, the last time that I tried to nurse him before bed, he laughed then scooted himself out of my bed and went running to his crib. My "baby" is an independent little toddler...

Awww...I can't say I know how you feel but I think I will have a similar tough time when Greyson stops.

I'm really hoping that I'll be able to continue nursing him until he is a year old, work makes me so nervous though. It will break my heart if I have to start giving him formula.
