We had a wonderful time in Dallas celebrating Tiffany & Shaw's wedding! We also got to see and spend time with a lot of family. It was a fun, relaxing vacation. Congratulation Tiffany & Shaw!! The Beautiful Bride

Our little Fam at the end of the Reception (we all look a little disheveled...JJ and Joey were groomsmen and I was a bridesmaid!)

Happy to be off the plane!

Well, we made it to Dallas and back successfully!! I am happy to report that JJ did great on the plane... I was worried for a few minutes, but then the benadryl kicked in...!! :) Yup, that's right I had to, don't judge! We all passed out too and managed to take pictures of each other without one another knowing, until after the fact. Here is the beginning of the trip in reverse order!! Daddy is asleep!

Mommy and JJ are asleep!

Getting ready to take off!!

Confessions of a Bottleholic!!

Yes, it's true I have a confession to make.... MY 16 MONTH OLD CHILD IS STILL ON THE BOTTLE!!!! There I said it! However, if you take away 2.5 months (due to prematurity) then technically he is only 13.5 months old and it doesn't sound as bad! Truthfully I had every intention of weaning him before now, but one thing led to another and time just flew by and before I knew it he was 16 months and still on the bottle and sucking down formula!! Yikes, I gotta get cracking!! Originally, I had decided that I did want to wait a little past the "traditional" 12 months to give him a little extra nutrients, the boy just doesn't eat that much!! I have, however, officially decided that this will be the last can of formula that I purchase!!!! Enough is Enough!! I am ready to use that extra 30 bucks on something else!! I have been slowly increasing the whole milk to formula ratio, in hopes that the switch won't be too traumatic!! Any tips for successful bottle weaning would be much appreciated?! How long should I go with just milk in the bottle?! At this rate he'll be carrying that thing around till he's 3 and a half!! LOL Just kidding!! Can't you just picture JJ going to Primary for the first time with his bottle and saying, "what?? I was a preemie!" hahahahaha!! Yeah right, more like... what? My mom thinks I am a baby! Anywho, just thought I would make me my confession, now that I have done so publicly I am motivated to hold to my goal of weaning him once and for all!!!
