Bye Bye Baba

I've known for a while that I need to wean Leighton from the bottle.  I just haven't wanted to do it...yet.  Partly because she's my last baby, but mostly because I expect it to be a challenge.  Anyway, she has gotten super attached to it in the last month or so, asking for her "baba" almost every hour.  Tired, hungry, grouchy, bored...she needs her baba.  Well, today was the breaking point when I saw this...

 

She literally bit a chunk out of the nipple- she needed her milk that bad I guess, and the slow flow nipple was holding her back.  Of course I discovered this as it flowed out all over her car seat.  So, to put it in her words, "baba broken".  And I saw it as my perfect opportunity to kick the beloved baba to the curb. 

Doesn't she looked thrilled about the idea. 

I'm expecting this to be a loooooooooong week.
