Milestone for Madi


As an infant Madi never got attached to anything for security accept for my hair and her bottle. Not a blanket, pacifier or stuffed doll...just her bottle. I have been working with her on giving it up (SHE"S FOUR!) and she was getting close to stopping. She only took it at naptime and bedtime but it was way past time to "give up the bottle."
We had family staying here for a week and she saw that those kids no longer needed it and thanks to one of the mom's she talked her into giving it up!! Hooray!!! We had a party for her and had her throw away the bottles in our business dumpster.
We had lunch on the porch with some cupcakes and they blowed bubbles!

This is Jillian, she made Madi realize it's not just a nagging mom thing, it's something she needed to do.

Jordan and Mackenzie helped cheer her on!

Taking that walk to the dumpster...she was actually excited about it.

ALL GONE!!!!
When you have reached the point where you are able to make your own bottle...you might be a bit old for it, lol!!!




My Posse

THE BLOGGERS PRAYER

Lord help me to learn to spell without spellcheck,
manage to visit all that visit me, and post regularly -
all in 5 minutes a day, so that I can clean house
and take care of my family.
Help me to not look at every occurrence in my life as a blog post, and to quit taking pictures of weird things to share as well. Please Lord, help me to stop talking about my blog friends as though they are next door neighbors or someone I have known all of my life.
And help me dear Lord, to think of something witty and wise to post tomorrow.
