Say goodbye to the pacifier!



We have finally gotten rid of the pacifier or "py-o" as Tyler called it. He had been getting more and more attached to it in recent weeks, not only at naptime and bedtime, but all throughout the day as well. We knew it was time to start taking it away. So when we got home from the beach we hid all of them and told Tyler that we had had to leave his pacifiers at the beach for the baby fish to use. He seemed to go along with that story okay but we knew that bedtime was coming soon and didn't know how that would go. He had a little trouble going to sleep the first night and he cried for about an hour before he finally went to sleep. After the first night though, he has done great! He hasn't asked for it much and when he has mentioned it, we remind him that they are at the beach and that satisfies him. It has been a little over a week now so I think we can claim victory! Now on to the next task - Potty Training!
