Henry is weaned

Well, it's been 1 week since I last nursed Henry.  So, at 21.5 months, he is weaned.  I ended up doing it cold turkey.  It was just getting too exhausting to nurse a toddler and a newborn.  Not only that, but Henry was whiney all the time constantly demanding "nursies."  I was just exhausted from it all.  I basically told him that he's a big boy now and big boys don't have nursies. Owen is a baby and babies have nursies.  Surprisingly, he actually seemed to understand this explanation.  It makes me sad because I did enjoy having the cuddle time and being able to give him comfort in that way.  My sweet little boy Henry is growing up and it's bittersweet.  I guess this is all just part of parenting!
