Constance is paci-free!

OK, so this actually happened awhile ago (38 days, but who's counting?) but I am so proud of my Constance, I must post the photos. At two and a half, I thought I'd have the paci gone by this point, but I have to admit that I was really the one holding things up. Of course, Constance was attached to it, but when we cut back the paci use to only nap time or bed time a little after her 2nd birthday, she was like a drug addict when she wanted it! We're talking hysterical screaming, thrashing around on the floor, throwing herself into walls. It was SO hard, I was not looking forward to doing it at night.

I decided to try the whole, "Baby Audrey needs the pacifiers now; we should give them to her," bit. I had read that it can work. So, after a day of really building it up, we packed them up in a special gold box with tissue paper and drove them over to baby Audrey.

Constance was so good about it, so proud of herself. It was adorable. There was one tough night, and one more night of whining, but thankfully no thrashing hysterics. Now we have two big girls! Good job, Constance!loading the box of pacifiers
