Too Big For Her Britches

Another great weekend! Jared and I attended a Bulls game in Chicago with his co-workers after a dinner at Connie's Pizza. Besides the rowdy bachelor party in the row in front of us which resulted in the 'bachelor' filling up a garbage bag with vomit and being drug away by First Aide, it was ultimately and amazing trip! The Bulls won, we got coupons for a free Big Mac and more importantly Jared and I really had a great time together. Thanks Oberweis!


Evelyn had a great weekend, too. She got to spend the night with Great Aunt Lor Lor and Great Uncle John. Thanks again!! She had a great time and drank her bottles down like nothing. I have to explain here that she has began weaning from the boober to formula and is doing amazing! She basically only drinks about 2oz of milk a day, the rest formula which is a huge transition from a month ago when she wouldn't give formula a chance. But we've been having issues in the morning with her taking forEVER! to drink a bottle. So we decided to break out the sippy cup again. When we first introduced the sippy she did drink juice from it a time or two. Now she has decided it is a teether and uses it soley to chew on. So we bought a different brand and she loves it! She'll chug a bottle down in no time and enjoys being a big girl. This is great for me because 1) I don't have to spend an hour trying to get her to drink 2) She now has tasted cold formula in the cup due to her impatience and drank it fine and 3) Now she is drinking her sippy cup of formula before bed and putting herself to sleep. This transition is awesome! She will totally be fine weaning to cold cow's milk and doesn't need to drink herself to sleep with a bottle. She is so easy-going! And such a big girl all of a sudden.
