I am all for extended nursing should that be the choice of the mother. I am in full support of my friends who choose to nurse until 2+ years. For me however, I just felt completed in the area of nursing Lily. These last few months found us only nursing a feeding or two per day, so not that bad. However, I was starting to wonder if Lily would ever give up the boob.
I do feel fortunate to not have had major issues with breastfeeding and I'm glad I got to meet my goal of nursing Lily until 12 months. And now, I'm happy to not worry what kind of shirt I need to wear and I get to put away the nursing bras that I have worn for almost 17 months. Maybe I should buy myself a non-nursing-appropriate shirt and bra! woohoo!
And here are a few pics of my big girl.
David made ribs the other night and Lily enjoyed eating her ribs and corn on the cob like a big girl...
Oh Hail!Last Tuesday we had a good rain/hail storm. It reminded me of snow for awhile there.

Yay for no nay nay! My body still isn't getting the message that Charlotte doesn't want to nurse anymore, and it has been over a month. I can't wait to be a stable size and get new bras. :)
Ribs sound really good.
Since I nursed both the girls, I completely understand your jubilance. As much as you may love your children, it does reach a point where you just want your body to be...well, YOURS again! :)
Cute pics!
Did you guys use the spice on the ribs? That would be so cool if Miss Lilly likes the Memphis spice rub I gave you guys.
