No more b-o-t-t-l-e





You know you've become a parent when you start spelling words to each other. "Bottle" is a perfect example. Saying the word could illicit a very loud and strong response from Violet. And given that we've been slowly cutting her back over the past few months means that we've found goods reason to spell it to each other.

Scene: Violet getting upset or otherwise being fussy.

Chip t0 Amy: "Should we give her a b-o-t-t-l-e?"

Amy: "Sure, why not." (Because I know it will make her happy and she'll stop being fussy.)

It's been a big weekend for Violet. She has officially kicked the habit. Not without some fussing and crying, but she doing great and I'm really proud of her.

So, in honor of the momentous occasion, I thought these pictures taken by Chip just a couple of weeks ago are fitting.
