Pacifier...

Monkey is officially weaning off her pacifier. Yesterday was the first day where I told her she was a big girl who didn't need a pacifier anymore. We were going to go to the store to get her another "baby" for bedtime. But she wouldn't finish her lunch, so we didn't end up getting one. But I told her she was still a big girl and wouldn't get a paci for naptime. It took her a while to go to sleep, but she did. She had a harder time with bedtime. The hubs had the brilliant idea to give her a choice. He put the paci in one hand and a caramel hershey's kiss in the other. It was so hard not to laugh as she studied out her two choices. It was a serious deal for her. Too cute! She finally chose the chocolate and went to bed without her pacifier. However, at about 10:45 she woke up crying and we gave it to her. Today has gone well though. She fell asleep much faster at naptime. She also went down at bedtime without any issues. We'll see if she wakes up needing it or not. Either way, I think it's awesome progress. Yay! So glad Monkey's doing so well and becoming such a big girl! :)
