Crazy weekend for Bugg

So Saturday night she was playing and slipped and hit her head on the corner of the only table we have and bam nice little boo boo on her forehead. Her first official injury...I'll post a pic later. I was so sad. But JC said she was a champ and hardly cried (I was at work.)

Sunday was a lazy day for us in the morning, we all stayed in our jammies til noon.

Monday rolled around and we decided to head to the fair! Addy got to pet a cow and goat and watched some chickens and ducks run away from other kids. It was pretty fun to get out and people watch (although the food JC and I decided on was pretty disappointing.) We got home and needed to plant a tree we recently bought so I put Addy in her stroller and we went to work. After it was planted I took her out to let her feel the grass on her feet, something she didn't like. So she walked on the sidewalk and then we went back over to watch daddy finish up. I stood her in the grass again and she was ok, for like 10 seconds. I picked her up and guess what was on her foot...an effing bee! I flicked it off but it was too late, she got stung. She screamed and we went inside and called the dr. I knew what to look for if she was having an allergic reaction but I just wanted to talk to someone to make me feel better. She was/is totally fine but man that kinda sucked not knowing if she's allergic and stuff.

Hopefully that is all the excitement she's gonna have for awhile. Yes, I know it's all small stuff but when it happens for the first time it's kind of a big deal and stuff I'll want to remember.

Big day

So I didn't wake up this morning thinking we were going to do anything but have family over for dinner but we got up and moving I blogged while we layed in bed, I showered and then we were off! We went to the clinic I worked at before I had Addy to visit everyone. While not everyone was there we did visit with a lot of great friends/coworkers. She didn't nap this morning so I figured she was gonna have issues but no. She walked up to people that I didn't even know! Big big change from the normal Addy. Then we go have lunch with daddy and she is walking all over the place, letting everyone get their dose of Addy. We came home in hopes she would nap but it took me an hour and a half to get her to sleep for a total of 30 minutes...lame...super lame. Then I start getting ready for dinner with the fam, JC's mom dad sis her soon to be husband and JC's aunt and uncle from Idaho. Addy is sooo crabby while I'm trying to get everything ready that I'm not holding out much hope for tonight when she meets new people. Of course Bugg is full of surprises and when everyone gets there she immediately goes to Jackie and is walking and greeting everyone, gosh that kid amazes me sometimes! I LOVE HER! She is kind of outgoing now(which scares me a little) but I am so glad she isn't clingy like she was. I hope this sticks.

Its over.

Addyson has decided she is pretty much done nursing. She's been a champ since day 1 and I really have enjoyed nursing and the way it has bonded us. I always thought that we'd make it to the year mark because I never imagined a baby deciding to be done, but she has. I was kinda excited at first when I realized that's what she was doing, one of the reasons being because then I could actually carry a purse to work again instead of the heavy breast pump. Which, insidently, caused me to fall down in the parking lot of the hospital, hilarious. Anyway, the more I think about it though the more I am so sad that it's coming to an end. It was nice being able to feed your baby without any prep work, to snuggle with her during the day (which is the only time she holds still because she has been walking for almost a month) and just the knowledge that you are giving your baby the best nutrition. I thought about pumping still but she is hard enough to keep up with already and if I try to pump AND keep track of her...yeah right. Oh well we did great! Sorry for the rambling pity party, I feel better now.
