Bye Bye Bottle :)

Guess what, so far we have been bottle free 3 nights in a row!!!! We had Izzy down to just one a day at night but Monday night when i was out of town, DH tried to give it to her and she didn't want it. So tuesday she didn't get one although she wanted it because she kept pointing to where it normally is and doing the more sign...and last night i put her to bed without it and no problem. She sleeps through the night!! I am SOOOOOOO excited about being done with bottles which means I don't have to clean them anymore!!!!! I love the dr browns wide neck because i think they work good but they are a pain in teh u knwo what to clean! I think I am seriously throwing the bottles all out since if/when there is a second I would just buy new ones and probably no Dr Browns!

Totally unrelated I am very frustrated with homeownership right now. DH had a Heating and cooling guy out yesterday to give us a quote for a new A/C. Ours has never worked very well since we have been in this house. Well of course the guy takes one look at our old furnace and recommends a new one of those too. So for both a furnace and A/C he quotes close to 10K!!!!!! Well we go to bed last night thinking whatever we will at some point replace both but probably not at the same time and not right away................well then this morning we wake up and it is cold in the house, I look at the thermostat and it is 65 in our house but it is set at 68...I say..uh oh. So we call back the company we had out yesterday and they sent out a tech today. Looks at oru furnace and says some motor part is broken ($212) but if it were him he wouldn't put any more money in the furnace. DH tells me to have teh guy look at the A/C...which he does. He comes back in the house and says...I know what is wrong with your A/C....your compressor is bad you need a new A/C unit........FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So now we have some serious decisions to make and I called another company to come out to give us a quote tomorrow.

Urgh!! So much for being totally excited about or $10K tax refund...........I can guess where that is all gonna end up!!!!!!!!!!

A 10K refund?? WOW!! That's fantastic!
And no more bottles? What a big girl Izzy is! We're nearly there; she's only taking the one at night. I'm so scared to give it up! I am too spoiled by sleeping through the night:) When do you give her her last meal of the day, then? Congrats on that! :)
