Where did my baby go?

So I am on day two of not nursing Andrew AT ALL! I am having not much pain, thankfully. I think I ran out of most of my milk awhile ago, since he has only been nursing at night and I haven't heard him swallow anything for about a week now.

He is putting up quite the resistance, asking quite often. Fortunately, he was extremely tired tonight, so even though he was REALLY cranky and seemed quite frantic for his "milk", he was out after about 5 minutes of rocking and me telling him that I loved him but my milk was all gone. What a little trooper he is. I love him so much.

I always said that I would be done nursing at 2, and he is there in two weeks today. Wow! My baby is going to be 2! I am starting to have the "baby itch" again. My baby isn't a baby anymore. No nursing, no diapers! I just wished I would have cherished him being so little more. While you are in it is seems like forever, and now it seems like those tiny baby days are so far away.

Sorry!

So I haven't fallen off the side of the earth, I just sort of lost interest in blogging again. Surprised? No, me neither. Things are going pretty good here. My last post was all about me complaining about me tired. Aaaawwww...poor me! Haha. I can feel sorry for myself pretty easily. Andre is now almost sleeping through the night. We had about 5 days of him waking up to nurse, me telling him no, and a lot of tears from both of us. He doesn't even ask anymore at night, but he still wakes up sometimes during the night for a snuggle and I am 100% okay with that. During the day he only nurses once, before bed. Some days he would like to more often, but he is usually okay with me saying, "not now."
He is also completely potty trained. He was completely trained by January 14th (my birthday- what a great gift!) and he was 23 months. I am pretty proud of having him trained before he was 2. He has some older cousins that he loves to copy, so training went fairly easy for us.
He is huge into the wiggles. I don't know why. We don't have TV that he watches them on, he just saw them on youtube and he is in L-O-V-E.
So that's my life right now. Trying to wean my almost 2 year old, running to the potty, the wiggles, and lot's of hugs and kisses!
