Bye Bye Bottle....

It has happened, after 3 months of no more ninny, (breast / breastmilk) Logan has weened himself off the bottle and onto the sippy. The doctor told us to go directly from boob to milk in a sippy no bottle. However, we were already giving him the breastmilk in a bottle, so we didn't listen. Plus, she said to just give it to him and if he drank it great, if not it would be a miserable few days of him learning that is how he is to get his milk. Well, again, we didn't listen! We thought it was best to let him tell us when he was ready. So he always would drink a sippy of water and juice, he just refused to drink his milk that way. Every so often we would give him his milk in a sippy and he would take a few sips and then very politely say "no, no." But on Wednesday Daddy went to work and I, Mommy, thought it would be good to try it first thing in the morning for his first bottle and sure enough he drank the entire sippy of milk while eating breakfast and then because he wasn't finished, sat in his chair while watching "Little Bear" and drank the remainder. So now instead of cleaning bottles and sterilizing nipples we are washing and rinsing.......


THE SIPPY!

But here is our happy big boy at 1 year 2 3/4 months.
