Buck and I woke up to this view the other day:
EWWWW!!!Bless her little heart.
Don't worry, we cleaned her up quickly.
No one likes having crusties soaked off their face.
(she was a little tripped out from the flash, too)
After seeing our sweet girl struggle with this little cold I'm reminded how important Mother's Milk is for a baby.
Ahh Mother's Milk. My hard work since November 24th 2009 until now.
While we were gone for the summer, work was kind enough to let me fill up this entire freezer.
Have you heard about the major construction going on in Utah?
This is what's going on around my office building.
(view from my office)
Construction + precious storage + temporary power outage= trash

That's right folks. That entire freezer is now trash. Trash!
I went to bring some more of the milk home the other day and noticed that every single container had been completely thawed. Completely. The power was turned off for a long time, and of course no one knows anything about it!
I had enough milk to last Millie about 200 days. That's a whole lot of milk at 24 ounces a day.
I can't produce that anymore, and we weren't financially planning on going the formula route.
Needless to say, more than a few tears were shed.
It's okay, you can feel sorry for us.
I would cry if that was my milk that thawed, and I don't blame you for crying more than a few tears. Or more than a few days of tears. I feel very sorry for you.
ReplyDeleteAnd Millie is stinkin' adorable. Even with nasty boogers on her cute little face.
Wow! That is devastating! All that hard work, gone in a matter of hours! It adds new meaning to the idea of crying over spilled milk.
ReplyDeleteOhh Niki, this made me ill reading and seeing this post. I can't even imagine how you felt when you saw this. I pumped and know all the hard work and time that goes into it and to just have it snatched from you in the blink of an eye is just devastating. Formula is definitely on the pricey side. Can WIC help you guys? I don't know your financial situation but I know it helped some AF families we know when they've needed it. Praying for you guys!!
