SHE WALKED!... and a little sad

Addy took her first "official" steps yesterday, I am so proud of her! She took a whole bunch too! After a few smaller sets of steps DH got the "finale" of the biggest set of them on video which I was so thrilled about. 

She turns 15 months today so I am dropping a nursing session as I had planned which puts us down to 3 times a day. I am a little sad about dropping another one because that means we are a little bit closer to not nursing at all and I will be sad when that happens but I know she has to grow up eventually. :-/ Doing this the day after she officially walked and took another step toward big girl status is not helping. I also irrationally felt guilty when she chugged 2 or 3oz of water instead of the sips she usually takes at lunch today. Yes, I know that is ridiculous. Sigh. Why must they grow up?

    Congrats on the walking! I know it's hard to see them growing up so quickly, but I have to say that I've loved each stage more than the next. 

    Good luck dropping the nursing session. Kudos to you for keeping at it for so long! You go girl!

    Yay for walking!  I know what you mean about it being bittersweet as they reach each milestone.  I was looking through pictures of Nolan's first year today and I started to cry.  DH looked at me like I was nuts, but I can't believe my sweet baby is now toddling around!

    That's so exciting. Maddy took her first single step today, so I'm hoping she walks soon as well!!

    Yay for walking!  I know it's not the same, but I felt really guilty when I weaned Ian from bottles.  I felt like I was taking the last little bit of baby away from him.  Here's my silly confession to the whole "growing up thing"...I'm still washing his clothes in Dreft because that really is the last little bit of "baby" that I have to hold on to.  I know we still have to potty train and take away the paci, but those aren't "baby" things to me.

    Aww, it's not ridiculous, I had a really hard time with weaning, which for me was odd because I had thought I was so done with it. 

    Yay for walking though! :)
