The End of Breastfeeding

So, this is it. K has ended her nursing sessions at 17 months and 4 days. The last couple of months prior to her quits, she had only nursed in the mornings after waking up. She skipped a few mornings here and there, and if I hadn't reminded her the next morning, she wouldn't have asked for it.

Ending breastfeeding was a very natural process for us. And although K doesn't even mention it any more, I miss it tremendously.

Is The Summer Here Yet?

Grandma And Grandpa Are Here

My mom and dad came over from Poland to help out with K during, as it turns out, not-so-busy summer semester.

K took her time getting used to grandma and grandpa this time. For the first few days she became very clingy especially towards her mama, which I have to admit I loved. My parents said they missed the baby in K who used to go with them anywhere and at any time, and who didn't mind much whether mom was there or not.

Every day K is getting more and more comfortable around her grandparents though. She loves when they read stories to her.
She goes for walks with them a couple of times a day and likes to take her new stroller with her.
She's been practicing some Polish dancing with grandpa...

... and polishing grandpa's breakfast-sharing skills.
