Breasts! Nipples! (Oh, The Horror!)

I was just introduced to Eclectic Effervescence today (Cheers, @CynthiaO!) and her latest couple of posts have got me in a right snit.  (Not at her.  At stupid people.)  I cannot fathom why some people think that breastfeeding is offensive.  Or gross, or something that should be hidden.  I'm not one of those moms who whip the girls out at every opportunity, but I just don't get what the big deal is about.  Thankfully, I've had exclusively good experiences breast feeding in public (apart from the one time my mother-in-law sat next to me and stared at my freaking boob.  But that's another story altogether) and people have either not noticed, not cared, or outright thought is was wonderful. So...  I just wanted to say to April: You go, girl.

(My fuzzy boob.  So that I can join the ranks of offensive women.  Ha!)

Thank you. My husband thinks I have nice boobs, too. ;>) (I love how she used to put her hand on me like that...)

I love when Emerson puts his hand up like that.

Nursing baby pictures make me smile!

I miss it. Now, she just whacks me or pulls my hair (unless she's really tired)... *sigh*
