Addie and I had a great day today! I absolutely look forward to the days I am not working and get to spend lots of time with my sweet baby. My mom, sister and I decided to get our first pedicures of the season today and we had a blast. Addie LOVED watching me get a pedicure. As you can see Addie can't take her eyes off the nice lady who was working on my feet!
So today Addie tried formula for the first time. This was kind of a sad moment for me because I think that breast milk is so wonderful. However, Addie and I did not catch on to the whole breastfeeding thing, so I've been exclusively pumping for the past 3 1/2 months and my supply is starting to run out. So I mixed up the formula and tried to feed Addie -she absolutely HATED it! She would drink a little bit of it and then make a disgusted face and spit it out. It was kind of funny actually. Also, looking back I probably should not have tried to "capture the moment" for my blog - it just added to the chaos! So anyway, I called my friend Jeanna (I call her for all my mommy advice b/c she has a little one who is 3 months older than Addie) and she told me to mix the formula with my milk - and it worked! Thanks Jeanna.
And to leave you with a "good taste in your mouth"....

ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome lady! Glad it worked. LOVE the last picture, such a big smile! So sweet!
ReplyDeleteOkay, that last picture is PRECIOUS. But I do have one question for you. WHY IS ADDIE'S BUMBO ON THE STOVE??? :) J/K...I know it's not really, but it kind of looks like it in the picture!
ReplyDeleteI love that she is interested in a little pampering - you are teaching her well! And that headband is adorable. : )
