Cute, but the baby girl’s face looks sad.

Too cute! This reminds me of my friend who told her husband her first son had finally weaned by serving him a special dinner. He couldn’t figure out what was so special about it until he looked closer and realized the pasta was in the shape of little pairs of breasts with nipples, signaling that her breasts were now going “back” to her husband! (bought at Cost Plus, I believe, for anyone interested)

Oh this is so cute, never thought of a weaning cake but in a way that is always done right before their birthdays. :) Happy WW!

That is really cute did you have to break her or was she ready?

Alicia, while my daughter also weaned right around her third birthday, this picture is not of my daughter. You can read more about her weaning (which was mainly child-led but gently guided by me), read this article and the links there to the rest of the story:
