No more PACI!!!


I feel safe in writing this now.  
We are on day 3 with no paci!
Thats 3 naps, and 3 nights pacifier FREE!


You may remember when we attempted this last year.
And failed miserably.

We had tried everything. 
 Letting him cry it out.
Cutting the tips off.  
Having the paci fairy take all the pacis and bring surprises instead.
Nothing worked, paci was here to stay.

I don't know what came over me this week, but I decided to go for it again.
I explained to Nolen that if he kept using his pacifier then he was going to have 
some really messed up teeth. 
I then proceeded to show him pictures of just that,
really bad teeth.

I didn't realize he had even been listening to me until this morning.
He came downstairs, proudly announcing that he didn't need that paci anymore.

N: You know why I don't need it anymore Mommy?
M: Is it because you are a big boy buddy?
N: No, it's because I don't want bunny teeth.

In the end it was 3 year old vanity that won.
