A Week Can Make A Difference...

Within one weeks time.......

Buggy has started taking steps... two and three steps at a time.... he squeals with delight and the older brothers clap for him!

Buggy has uttered the word most Mamas LOVE to hear (until their child becomes 2 and it is said with a whiny tone!!).... He said Maaamma!  Its music to my ears after months of him saying Daadda!

And Buggy has also weened himself!  (Alas!  No more nursing bras or camis!  Its time to go shopping!)  ;o)  But on a more serious note, I'm thrilled I was given the opportunity to nurse Buggy.  He was an ideal nursing babe.  I don't even think we had any issues.  God was so gracious to answer SO many prayers for this little bug!  He latched on and always seemed to know how to nurse!  I'd give just about anything to start my nursing experience with Buggy over and do it again.  It was a privilege and wonderful bonding time for he and I.  It was about the only time I was able to devote entirely to him and it was something I will always treasure!  Buggy is a busy, busy dude and is enjoying the freedom of carrying a bottle around with him.  We will begin cow's milk in a few weeks when he (gulps!) turns 11 mos old!

What a week of changes and exciting happenings in this little joy's life!
