After 2 years of breastfeeding my baby boy

 We had to say stop after 2 years of breastfeeding my baby boy.

It took me 3 months to stop breastfeeding my baby boy....firstly  I took out one breastfeeding session during the day, after 5 days..another one...sometime, he was hard.. 

The breastfeeding session to put him to bed in the evening it took me 1 month to take it out.

Long neck shirts for me was a plus...daily.

More fruit juices , homemade, with water added for my baby boy, during the day, when he wanted to be breastfed.

More healthy snacks like apple pieces...grapes..

More time to play with me and more huggs...

More hugs and sleeping in my arms, near my heart...not easy, he always wanted to have some breast milk.

More kisses..so many more kisses.

More time spent outside before to go to sleep at night...so much more time spent running or biking...

No other type of milk agreed was a big problem for me... Ì tried goat milk, cow milk, powered milk...no success.

My bedtime story

Math for free - measurement units

 Here it is a free math exercise for you to learn measurement units.

Am working man is leaving his house to go to work at 6 a.m. in the morning and comes back at 4 p.m. in the afternoon.

It takes him 1 Hour and 45 minutes to go and come back from work.

He takes a break at 10 a.m. for 45 minutes.

And the rest of the times he is working. 

How many Hours does he work per total in a working day?

Answer

From 6 a.m to 4 p.m. are 10Hours.

He is working 10Hours - 1 Hour and 45 minutes  - 45 minutes the break......

 Meaning 10 Hours minus 2 Hours and 30 minutes (1 Hour 45 minutes plus 45 minutes per total 2 Hours and 30 minutes because 1 Hour is 60 minutes)

Meaning 10 Hours = 9 Hours and 60 minutes

9 Hours and 60 minutes - 2 Hours and 30 minutes = 7 Hours and 30 minutes

Final answer 7 Hours and 30 minutes.

Learning the colours . Green is his favourite.

Having  some green leaves from our morning walk, my baby boy tried to chop .... I prepared a soup next to him and he tried to make the same.....

New day

What animals eat and point the finger on the animal and the food associated

Playing in the farm.. on a big paper picture with the ducks and cats and horses.. an entire day

A toy tank and an excavator bucket and a tilting machine put together to make a yard because we want to build together a building
