I love these pictures. Aurora will one day kill me for posting naked photos, but I had to show you guys her birthmark above her bum! She has one on the back of her neck too.

So, I came down with mastitis this weekend. I am going to quit breast feeding. I feel incredibly guilty about it, but I literally have woken up every morning with clogged milk ducts and pain for the past 5 days, and then add, a fever and chills to it due to the infection. YUK!!! Breast feeding and me do not get along. The same thing happened with Violet, but I lasted 4 months with her, but I cannot be a good mommy and take care of my two girls with this much pain. It is too much. So I will be weaning over the next month. I am, however, looking forward to the freedom of not being chained to nursing and pumping. I think it will be liberating -- not to mention that I will get more than 3 hours of sleep!

They are SO adorable. Thanks for posting all the sweet pics! I hope you start feeling better soon - that sounds like it HURTS.
Such great photos! I hope you feel better soon. You are such a wonderful Mom so don't feel guilty!
the faster you quit breastfeeding the faster you can come see us on the farm~ I love these photos such sweet girls ;)
Love these pictures!
Don't feel guilty...and don't let anyone else make you feel guilty! breastfeeding didn't work for us, either....maybe b/c J was a preemie. I felt so guilty every time I picked up a parenting magazine. You're a wonderful mom no matter how you do it!
She is adorable. Does that birthmark kind of look like a faint heart? I hated every minute of breastfeeding!!! Mastitis is the worst! Hope you feel better soon.
Hi!
I just found your blog while searching Google for pictures of birthmarks!
My 6 year old daughter has 2 - one on the nape of her neck and one above her bottom - like Aurora!
They are called Stork Bites, or Angel Kisses.
