R.I.P. Paci...

Praise the Lord, Levi FINALLY slept without his paci last night! We've slowly been working towards this. For the past 6 months or so, he's only had it for naps and at night. But I had finally had it, the darn this was so gross! So I told him yesterday that paci was all gone and he was a big boy (all the while Josh laughed and said "yeah right, you'll cave, I give you til 10 o'clock tonight!" thanks for the support honey. :) He went down without a fight, he asked for it once, but I just told him the same thing. We found one of his soft cuddly bears for him to sleep with for comfort along with his blanky. He's all about Mr. Bear now.
Paci OUT - Bear SO IN!!

Neither of my boys liked a pacifier... Liam chose his fingers and Finn doesn't suck anything. BUT, we have given up plenty and I can see how this is a BIG deal! Congrats to you for holding out!! :)

We also have an avid "binkie" sucker...way to go Mom!! Not an easy thing to do. Reese only has hers for naps and bedtime too but "hers" includes about 6 all at once. She not only has to have one in her mouth but one in each hand and a couple on reserve in case one escapes in the middle of the night:)
