Happy Friday!


It's Friday!!!
Can you tell Hudson's excited!?!

For blog book sake, I wanted to update you myself on the nursing and formula issue.
Since Hudson turned 10 months, he has completely been on formula. If you have ever read this blog since my child was born, you know that this was originally hard for me. I was an avid breastfeeder and took it very seriously for 10 months! Like it was my job!
But now that I am on the other side, the scary formula is not as bad as I imagined. And it has honestly been good. I know how much Hudson is taking now and I don't always have this sick feeling in my stomach. "Am I pumping enough, is he getting enough..." If you've ever nursed, you know those thoughts!
While I was nursing, people who had been there tried to tell me, "he will be ok with formula, don't be so hard on yourself." It was hard for me to get to that place in my head. But I am there and I am smiling! It really was ok.

I definitely plan on nursing with my next child, but hopefully I can remember the time I had with Hudson and not freak out as much about it.
I have no idea where I am going with these thoughts, but to summarize the above painful long paragraph:
I seriously nursed, and I switched to formula. And my child is ok and thriving.
Praise Jesus!



Moving on, is anyone else a crazy person about those facebook smocked sales? Smocked Auctions, Stitches and Smocked, Smockadots...the list goes on.
I love getting on my ipad around 7-8pm every night to check out all that smocked goodness.
They get me ever-er-y time! And sweet Josie is getting increasingly frustrated with me about the packages that arrive almost daily. Last night, I bought some Christmas PJs and a cute Christmas applique set (both with free shipping and monogram).
I still like to shop around at the local baby boutiques, but you honestly can't beat those prices. Sorry Joey, keep those packages rollin in!


The boy loves balls. And bubbles.
 
Coming next week, big changes in the Lindley household!
Very exciting times ahead!!

Happy Friday!
