We went to the doctor today for a weight check and Mr. Benji is 8lbs even! That is about a pound in one week. I am doing about half formula and half breast milk now. I didn't realize how emotional it would be for me to stop breastfeeding, so I started breastfeeding again too. It makes for a busy day pumping, breastfeeding, freezing milk, preparing formula bottles, but its all worth it to me. Eventually I would like to breastfeed and pump only and stop the formula. For now I am just taking it one day at a time.
I became the Mrs. on July 1, 2006. I became the Mama on February 12, 2008. My blogs are about my Mrs' moments and my Mama moments.

Looking good! Just keep doing what you feel is right for the two of you. 8 lbs is great. My 9 month old is only 16 lbs. Keep up the good work, you are a great mommy!
Yeah! He will catch up to Abram in no time.
Hooray!!! Now you can relax.
Wow, he really looks chubbier! I'm happy for you, hopefully you will be able to enjoy him a little more now.
Amy! That is great! I am glad to hear that it is going well.
