Oh WOW!!!

I think, I think... Annabelle has finally weaned herself! She hasn't nursed since Sunday!! And she has continued to take naps too!

Today was the first time she actually asked for it all week and, to be honest, I wasn't even sure how much milk would be there after not nursing her for four whole days. So when she asked for it today I told her that the milky was all gone and she cried for 5 or 6 seconds (more pouting than crying) and grabbed a book and said, "Read!" and then went to her bed while I told her another story till she fell asleep. She just gave in so easily at the very first suggestion! And it surprised me... I think she was ready. Sounds like she was ready, right?

I am elated! I did it!!
