Weaning

When it's time to wean my children from the breast or bottle I always look to the Farmer's Almanac to check when the best time is. Sounds completely crazy, doesn't it? It's true though. When Lily was a year old someone suggested that I wean at the almanac's advice...we did it and never her a peep from her about the bottle. She did perfectly.

So, now that Julianna is nearing the one year mark, it is time to start thinking about when the best time to wean her is. Tom purchased the last of the formula last week and we're ready to check the almanac to pick the day of the last bottle in this house. Ever.

My family had their Christmas all together on Christmas Eve. My sister and I were chatting and she asked me, "Have you looked online to see when to wean her?" And I heard, "Have you looked online to Win a Wiener?" (Say the sentence 3 times fast and tell me you don't hear the same thing!)

I am still laughing every time I think of it!!
