Goodbye, Hello


Goodbye...




Hello...




That's right, we have a big girl on our hands.  She has been off formula for over a week now.  I can't say that is entirely true for the bottles.  She went two full days with a sippy cup only and then three molars decided to pop through at the same time, so we gave her the bottle back at night for a few days last week.  The bottle and some Motrin were the only things that would comfort her.  Darn teeth.  My little twelve month old has eleven of them now.  I should say 11 that she will allow me to count.  She could have more, but that's as high as I can count before she clamps down and I risk losing some digits.  I am not lying when I say that we have not gotten a full night's sleep in about a year (for me, it has been longer).  We've been in a fierce battle with these chompers.   

So...no more formula, no more bottle, 11 teeth ...goodbye baby, hello big girl. 

It is a bittersweet milestone.

  1. 11 teeth! Does she need to go to the dentist now?? :)

    I am thinking of switching Miri to a sippy cup soon...though she's so uncoordinated still that she'd probably just whack herself in the head...

    We will see you soon!!!
