Nursing

I made it a year with breastfeeding Aiden and actually stopped on his birthday.  I still have a few bags of frozen milk that we are using here and there.  But mostly he is on whole milk.  I honestly can't believe that I made it a year!  With pumping at work and just being so exhausted (seriously felt like I was walking around like a zombie), I am pumped that I stuck with it.  I would have been proud of myself regardless.  I will say though that as ready as I  was to be done nursing, it was bittersweet for me.  It was such a connection that Aiden and  I had for a year and we spent so much time together.  I will say I do have some moments where I miss that sometimes.  That's why I make sure that we still have lots of snuggle and cuddle time and boy do I just treasure those times of being close to him and lucky for me-Aiden is kind of my buddy.  Him and I are pretty connected so getting snuggles with him is pretty easy.  He is doing well with whole milk.  I am excited to see where this next phase of his life takes us as he develops more personality, starts to walk, and starts to talk more.  Sure hope those cuddles are still in near and distant future!  Oh how he melts my heart!
