ode to bananas and mush

...yes, it was inevitable...cadence has graduated 1/8 time to solids...if you can call mashed babanas, rice ceral mush and pureed green beans solids...i wasn't really wanting to feed her too much of this stuff cuz you see, it's a lot of hard work for the parents, and the doctor says she really doesn't need anything but breastmilk right now...yes, that miracle food of all foods HUMAN BREASTMILK is ALL a baby needs the first year of life...ain't that amazing...unfortunately, my fountain of miracle food is starting to run dry, which means baby's gotta eat SOMETHING...hence the photo you see above...

...i brought my pump home this weekend to see if i can increase my milk supply if i stay permanently attached to the pump for a couple days, but all i'm getting is a really sore nipple (singular cuz my left boob quit on my months ago)...good god, what's a gal gotta do to get a good letdown around here???!!! for those of you who are wondering why i wanna be let down, the LETDOWN is the technical term for that magical phenomenon which causes my milk ducts to squirt out milk like i'm daisy the cow...it involves hormones and stuff...if i do it right, i could literally squirt milk across the room...

...ah, who am i kidding...my party trick days are over...

...*sigh*...i really hope my milk supply lasts a couple more months...i know they make great formula these days, but it's a pain in the butt to make...i do NOT want to get out of bed in the middle of the night to get cadence a bottle when all i have to do right now is just lay there and let her fix her own midnight snack...
