Saying Goodbye

Brent and I decided that it is time for Campbell to say goodbye to the pacifier for good. She has been doing really well for the past few months about only using it during nap and bedtime.

We tried our best to prepare her last night for the inevitable. She's not exactly thrilled about it, but we assured her that she can still sleep with her blanket.

When asked what she would like to do with her pacifiers, Campbell suggested that we put them in a zip lock bag and store them in one of the kitchen cabinets. So, that is exactly what I'll do! Just way, way, way up high in the cabinet. A few months down the road I'll eventually throw them away after this phase has ended.

She also asked if we were going to take away Riley's pacifiers. (YIKES!) I explained to her that we were not at this time. Riley is still a baby and we will take hers away when she gets a little older. She seemed fine with this answer (thank goodness....).

Hopefully, this will be an easy transition for her. Otherwise it is going to be an extremely long weekend.

As her reward, she will be able to pick out a game for her Leapster. Let's keep our fingers crossed this incentive will work.

Please say a little prayer for us this weekend.
