Weaned!

Wow, it's been awhile since I posted! I'll try and post more later to catch up on how big Ryan is. However, I wanted to post that today is the first day that I have not nursed Ryan. Last night was the last time that I nursed him before bed and now I've gone a whole day without nursing him. I'm extremely sad that I am no longer providing him breastmilk, but I'm so thrilled that I went for 1 year and then some. I treasured every session and it was amazing to have that connection with him. I think I'm also sad because I'm realizing that he is no longer a little baby, but a big boy now. Anyway, I just needed to mark the occassion since I worked so hard to accomplish this. Pumping at work for 10 months, taking medicine to help with my supply; it was not without tears but came with alot of smiles.

Thank you for being a great nurser, Ryan. You made me so proud!

Love, Mommy
