The End of an Era, and Kayla is 13 months old now!

At the end of the day on May 26th, I made the realization that Kayla is now 13 months old. The last month went by so quickly, I seriously feel like I blinked and it was gone. She is reaching and passing milestones like nuts. We have attempted to start her on a cup, she won't take a sippy cup but she understands the concept of a regular cup, just not that its full of liquid that will get all over her. She has started walking around the house with her bottles upside down, so something needs to change, before my house smells like rotten milk all the time. She is sleeping full time in her crib now, until about 7 am, which is great. No more baby in our bedroom! She had grown, is eating solids like a champ and gained a ton of weight.
We as a family decided we are done having more children. We have been ultimatly blessed with what we have, and don't feel like taking our chances again. Hubby had his vasectomy in December and have been cleared from here on out. The closing of this chapter has been difficult, but we know in our hearts that my body would probably not be able to do it again, and we have our boy and girl, so we have what we wanted. My mind keeps going there though. I know it will take time. Its like quitting a job you have had for years and just stopping it... Time heals, and now its time to focus on what we have.

With a situation as delicate as yours, and with your family already having a boy and a girl, it's a good decision for the two of you for your husband to have a vasectomy. It's hard for a man to even talk about vasectomy, so him actually doing it is a step in the right direction for your family.
