2 years Breastfeeding Milestone!

I have achieved a milestone I never thought I would reach. Elijah and I have been breastfeeding for 2 years! It wasn't easy to begin with but with the right support and help we worked things out and now its just easy. I don't see Elijah weaning any time soon, and although my milk supply has dropped significantly since losing weight, he still feeds for comfort etc. There is still milk there but no one near as much as I used to. But we are both happy to continue on as I know every drop is still beneficial to him. Big thanks to my sister Naomi for capturing this special moment.

Im defiantely not looking forward to his 4 month needles. He is almost sleeping through the night now! Bedtime is between 7-730pm, and I follow the bath, bottle, bed routine. This has helped him realise bedtime is approaching and he starts to unwind! He will generally sleep until bet...

Mr Timmy came for a visit

34 weeks 6 days Tim was up in QLD for his school rock-band tour and so we decided to meet up for dinner. It had been over a year since we had seen him last. We went to the Glen Hotel and had a nice dinner. A few hours before we had left Samuel fell face first into gravel in the front yard. Poor lil thing was all scratched up. But he was really well behaved considering it was late at night when he's usually fast asleep. Here are some pics:

Merry Christmas Everyone

Just a quick blog post for our Christmas Day at the Johnson Household. We spent the day at home just chilling. The boys opened their presents when they woke up. They got a mountain bike each and a few other bits and pieces and Elijah opened his pressie as well. We had mum over for lunch. It was a nice day :)
