No More Bottles!

It's a big day for us at the Wyatt home! Lillie and Elliott are officially off bottles! We've been gradually weaning them over the past several weeks. I had one big can of formula left and decided it would be their last, so we've been slowly working our way through it.

Lillie and Elliott have gone 2 days with no bottles. They seem to be ok with it. I'm definitely ok with it! No more formula kind of feels like a small raise... it's so expensive! I guess all that money is going toward gallons of milk now. I can't believe how fast were going through it.

The other bonus to all of this is I gained a little more counter space!

Oh, I can't wait for both of those reasons!!! I'm sick of bottle clutter on the counter and spending over $100 a month on formula is just a strain! Congrats to you!!

I am going to miss the cuddling time while they take their bottle. I know it is easier for you, though. Love you all, Great Gran
