The Breast Pump

(I babysat for a friend of mine and she's still breastfeeding...I let her use my breast pump so I could have a bottle in case the baby needed it. After it was washed, I had it sitting on the counter and that's when Madison saw it.)

Madison: "What's that Mom?"

Me: "That is something for big people, for Mommies."

Madison: "But why?"

Me: "It's for them to use."

Madison: "What do they do?"

Me: (Ugh, I might as well tell her.) "It's a breast pump Maddy."

Madison: (Weird look on her face) "What's that?"

Me: "When Mommies have little ity bity babies, they can put the pump to their boobies and get
milk so they can feed their babies."

Madison: (Pondering look on her face) "Oh. Well...when YOU have a baby BROTHER in YOUR tummy than YOU can use that pump and give my baby brother milk when he wants milk."

Me: "........."

Madison: "Okay Mom? You can do that when YOU have my baby brother."

Me "Oh...okay"

Madison: (Getting really excited) "I get a baby brother?"

Me: "No honey, we'll have to wait and see okay?"

Madison: "Okay. I'll ask Daddy if I can have a baby brother." (Walks away looking pleased with herself.

Having Fun

We found something new that Emily loves! BIKE RIDING!!! Found this brand new seat at a Garage Sale for 20 bucks...got my Father-In-Law to set it up and WHAM! We are ready to go!
While I am still getting used to having her behind me, she loves it and I love that we have found something that can help with her behaviors.

Now that Emily is in a toddler bed AND sharing a room with Madison, she is free to get up out of bed on her own. And she does, almost every night she crawls into bed with Madison. This is how I usually find them! I just adore this picture.

We are slowly getting into our own routine without Blain here. There are moments when I don't even want to move I miss him so much. But for the most part, we are getting things done and keeping busy. Come home soon love!
