Bye-bye Binkie

Nope, it's not Cora, unfortunately, who has said bye-bye to her binkie, but Violet! Last week she stopped taking it, so I washed and boxed them up. It's kind of a pain to not have a sure-fire quick way to soothe her, but I'm also glad to be getting all the binkie attachments out of the way so painlessly. Maybe Cora will follow soon! Once we are done with our summer trips and guests, we'll be tackling that.

Terrah-

I love this picture! Also, you'll find that there are a lot of other ways to soothe a sad little girl besides a binkie. Take, for instance, money, diamonds, chocolate, clothes, and so on. Actually, none of my kids have had binkies and I think you'll find it to be a lot easier that way. Good luck with Miss Cora - it will come soon enough and then you'll miss seeing it in her mouth!

Way to go, Violet! That is great! I am already worried about ever trying to take Jarom's binkie away... every morning when I go in he has one in his mouth and one in each hand.

wow, thats impressive Violets already off her binkie. I've heard it can be a real pain to get kids off their binkies.

That reminds me of my kids. Both of them got rid of thier binkies on their own, although a little earlier than I would have liked. I guess it saved me some trouble though :).
