Cow (over) Drive

I must say that the boobs were excellent while Ellie was sick. I have mentioned before that Ellie loves to eat and that we are constantly getting comments from daycare about how great she is with her finger foods. Once she got sick, that was out the door. She wanted nothing to do with anything that came from a finger or a spoon. Only the boob will do.

Normally it takes a few days for the supply to catch up with any changes in demand, but not this time. As soon as word got to the two... hmmm... moo-ers, they were working overtime! Maybe we should call it the Cow Overdrive of 2008?

Now keep in mind, Ellie had been sleeping completely through the night for a week or two (I got a glimpse of what Heaven must be like), but the first night she was up every couple of hours, the supply was ready. No, wait... that's not quite true. "Ready" is an understatement. "Got Milk?" would be an insult. These babies made jugs that night! Every time she woke up (and mind you, it was every hour or two), they were rock hard.

You would have been proud. No wonder I'm exhausted.
