Well, Emily has bid farewell to her paci! She has been without the paci for 2 weeks now. She had only been using it during naptime and at night for at least 6 months. But 2 weeks ago, we took it away for good! I thought I had let her keep it a lot longer than I did with Alex. But when I started looking back at Alex's baby stuff I realized that I took his away at about this same time. I just took it away....cold turkey! Emily adjusted fairly well. She did shed a few tears when it was time for a nap or bed, for the first few days, but she has recovered nicely! We told her teacher at her preschool that we had taken it away and they made the one at school magically disappear as well. They said she did great....maybe the crying at home was more for my benefit than anything! : )
So, I guess we are one step closer to officially not having a baby anymore! The paci is gone....now, on to potty training. YIKES....that is going to have to wait until school is out and mommy and Emily have several days at home together
