ONE NIGHT DOWN!!!

WELL, WE MADE IT ONE NIGHT WITH NO BOTTLE. WE WERE DOWN TO ONLY ONE AT NIGHT. MY GOAL WAS TO HAVE HER COMPLETLY OFF THE BOTTLE BY 15 MONTHS. SO, I THOUGHT WHY NOT TONIGHT. IT WORKED. I HOPE IT LAST. SHE DIDN'T EVEN CRY. SHE DID KEEP GOING TO THE KITCHEN BEATING ON THE WALLS. I ALMOST GAVE IN BUT I MADE AND SO DID SHE.

EDITED TO ADD: MAYA WOKE UP ABOUT 10:30 PM AND CRIED FOR ABOUT AN HOUR THEN SHE WENT BACK TO SLEEP WITHOUT A BOTTLE. IT WAS HARD FOR ME BUT WE MADE IT AND SHE IS STILL SLEEPING.

SOME CUTENESS AND I HAVE BEEN TAGGED!!!

MAYA LOVES HER VEGGIES!! WELL, SHE LOVES ANY KIND OF FOOD.
HERE MOMMY, YOU CAN HAVE SOME.
HER FIRST TASTE OF GRAPEFRUIT. BELEIVE IT OR NOT SHE WANTED MORE.
OUR FIRST HALLOWEEN CAKE TO MAKE TOGETHER. OKAY, SO MAYBE IT WOULDN'T WIN A CONTEST BUT WE HAD A BLAST AND IT TASTE GOOD. MAYA DID THE SPRINKLES.

SHE WASN'T TOO SURE ABOUT THE BIG JUMPY THING. SHE DID GET IN IT AND I HAD TO CLIMB IN AFTER HER. THAT WAS A SIGHT. SORRY NO PICTURES OF THAT. HER FAVORITE THING WAS THE SEE-SAW. SHE WOULD JUST SCREAM LAUGHING. IT WAS SO FUNNY. THEN WE WENT TO FUDDRUCKERS TO EAT. MY CHICK CAN EAT!!! SHE EATS ANYTHING!!! I AM SO GLAD THAT SHE IS A GOOD EATER. THEN WE SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE OUR PICTURE MADE TOGETHER NEXT SATURDAY. THAT SHOULD BE INTERESTING. OF COURSE WE GOT IN A LITTLE SHOPPING. SO THAT SUMS UP OUR OUTING TODAY.
