What a month!

Ok, so I haven't updated in a while. This month has been a little crazy. Last week the my spring semester at school started. After a lot of debate and agony, I decide to graduate one semester later than originally planned because I just couldn't do it all! This semester I'm doing clinicals, 180 hours of them! Plus I'm working one night a week, and I do want to see our little girl. Any ways, after making the decision, I'm planning on graduating in May of 2012, which will make the next few semesters just a little bit easier. The next big stressor is that Sophia has decided to stop nursing! She didn't nurse Wednesday night, but nursed early Thursday morning, then not again until today (Sunday). She's nursed twice today, but only with a little coaxing. These past few days have been really rough, she's been fussy, and I've been so worried about her never nursing again! Apparently it's called a nursing strike. After talking to the lactation consultant at work, and my sister (who said all 3 of her kids did this), I tried to relax, and take it one feed at a time. We haven't let Sophia have her binky, and have stopped giving her bottles and using sippy cups instead. Hopefully we will keep progressing, but at least she's nursed again! Needless to say, the past week or so have been really stressful for me. Here are some pictures from the past month though.

    One handed cooking is key! It's hilarious! :)
