No more binks....

I didnt want to leave things on such a sour note today. So I decided to update and mention Avas latest accomplishment.... She has now gone longer without a binky than she has since she was about 6 months old! When mom mentioned that Alana was off the bink, I decided it was definitely time for Ava. So we talked to her about it, bought her a $2 bear from wal-mart (to have something else that comforts, sooths, and helps her sleep) and she hasn't had one for more than 36 hours! It was especially hard at first when she literally cried for 2 hours saying "I want my bink!" But since that time she has only mentioned her binky a handful of times and we say "no more binkies, but we get bear!!!"

Hopefully the hardest part is over and we can be baby free for a while before another baby with more binks join the house!
