Summer Time

Dennis asked me today if I could stay home with micaela and not work would I?could I? The answer is 100% yes! From the minute She wakes up.. I sing to her, nurse her, kiss her, teach her what things are, dance with her, take her to my gym, and music, feed her healthy food, teach her manners. No one in the world will ever care for her the way Ido. I feel like I have lost control when she is away from me. That is hard.    This past month I have enjoyed spending so much time with her. She is my little best friend. She is so clingy and although can play indenprntly she always seems to scoot to me and say "up up" and I can't resist but told hold her. I was so worried about trying to wean her and my friend told me... Why try to wean her when you are with her 24:7 do it when you are away at work. That was the best advice I heard.  Life has become amazing without pumping. Micaela is now a great feeder so its awesome to sweep her up in the morning and snuggle in our chair while she eats her "duck duck duck"  as she calls milk. I feel so close and so amazing with her that I'm so happy breast feeding. In the day she will occasionally ask to feed and if its feasible then I do it. If we are out and about she gets her sippy cup. She drinks whole milk mixed with strawberry kefir. That's the only way she will have whole milk.  Micaela has such a personality. She gets tightened easy. Especially with loud noises or loud people. At her friend Nyla's birthday... Little Michael screamed and she cried for about 5 minutes. A loud truck will startle her and make her leap into our arms and crawl up ou chest. She is obsessed with the trash truck or ta ta. When she hears it we go take her on the balcony and she kicks and squeals with excitement. It's amazing! She loves to watch doggies and people walk by. She barks at the dogs and loves to point out the tee.. Or tree by our house. I'm loving feeding her breakfast and nursing her to nap. She eat a smoothie or ju juuuu for breakfast and oatmeal.  Vanilla Coconut milk, banana, mango, protein, chia, avocado, spinach. She loves it. Her oatmeal is from trader joes and she devours it! After breakfast she and I clean up or I run an errand then at about 11 its nap time. I nurse her to sleep and she sleeps so cozy for about 1.5 hours. I usually get ready or clean then we start out day.
