Well, today is a sucky day. First Chazz started 1st grade. He had a upset tummy this morning from nerves. He blamed it on his new pants though. I can't believe he'll be gone for 7 hours a day. I won't have him to eat lunch with for the first time in my life outside of my lunchbreaks from when I was working. That also means 7 hours of listening to Rocco "Where's Chazz?" "Let's go get Chazz." "When's Chazz coming home?"

Plus, I'm officially outta donor milk. Luckily I'm still producing most of my own, but I don't have any extra to make our baby food or to offer in a cup. You know what that means? I'm giving stinky @$$ formula. I can't believe not ONE mom within a four hour drive has extra milk to give away right now. Not that I'm not grateful for the 5 months worth of food my donor had given me. My life, Joey's life wouldn't have been the same without her. It just sucks to be 11 months old and finally have to introduce formula. I'm sorry, and this is in no way a bash to FF moms. But a bash to the formula itself and the companies who make it. I forgot how nasty stinky the stuff is. I'd rather smell my husbands farts then the stinch of that stuff. It reeks. And I can't imagine with that smell, that it tastes half way decent either. And the constipation! Oh I'm not ready to deal with the constipation it gives babies, or the gas or anything. I know I could use plain in cups and food, but it has no nutrients. And the fact is breastmilk or formula is suppose to make up 99% of their diet for the first 12 months. Soooooo, I have to wait at least another month before I wanna start using water and/or juice. Blah. This stinks. But not as much as Joey's sippy cup right now.

Donor milk? Like getting breast milk from another Mom to give to your kids? I've never heard of this....
