Our 5-Day Forecast = Grim

I do not look forward to the next couple of days. I've decided that the almighty pacifier must go! I originally planned to take the bottle first, for the sole reason of my being afraid to take the pacifier away. Sadly, however, my child has forced me to take alternative action.

He has begun eating his binky. Literally. He is chewing them up. He slides them to the side of his mouth and just grinds on them. It's so bizarre. So, because I am afraid of his ingesting pieces of plastic...I've decided to take the binky away. I guess, more accurately, I should say, I am letting him grind each one up, one at a time, and when they are gone...they are gone.

Aaaah! It's my #2 fear to take that thing away. #1 being of course to potty train. So, car rides and nap time, and nursery and that hour before nap/bed time...are going to be beastly. I feel as though I am in mourning. Needless to say, the bottle has been given a pardon. It gets to stay for now, and its departure date is yet to be determined.

That's so interesting that he chews his binky up like that! You'll have to let us know how it goes without them.

What did you decide to do today anyways with your girls? Enquiring minds want to know!
