Two weekends ago I had to skip 2 mornings in a row of nursing her. On the 3rd day she was just not interested anymore. I have kept trying every morning since but, to no avail. So, Azure is now officially weaned. I couldn't help but, cry as I sat there in the glider thinking that this was it, that I would never nurse my baby again. I have come to similiar cross roads with her before as I would pack away old clothes that are too small, but this has been the hardest thus far. 
This is the first time it's really hit me that she's just not a baby anymore and that she's gonna keep on growing...

What a tender post. I love hearing your mommy thoughts...I'm sure it is kind of bitter-sweet to watch Azure growing up fast!
Oh, I'm so glad you were able to nurse her after your trip! I love nursing my babies, and I, too, was sad when I finally weaned Haley at 13 months... which I only did because I knew it would break my heart when SHE didn't want to nurse anymore (and at that point she was indifferent, so there were no tears on her part). In a few months, Julian's time will be over. *sniff, sniff* It's hard to let go of your "baby" and realize that they're growing up. Time for another one! (Just kidding... but just thinking about it makes ME want another one.)
I almost cried reading your post. So sad because you can't ever go back. :( You wish they could stay small forever, but then they are so fun with all their new tricks! BTW great dress!
