Bye Bye Binkie!

Well, its time. Zach turns 3 1/2 on Monday, and its time to give it up. Granted, he only uses it at nap/bed time...and of course he doesn't want to give it up! But we decided that on Saturday we will have a Bye-Bye Binkie Pirate party. If you have read any of Zach's doings, you know he loves dressing up like a pirate, so what an appropriate theme to have the party in.

So, last nite, after Church I misplaced his binkie. And I told him I lost it. Well, I did. I still don't know what happened to it, but it seems to be working! We weren't going to do it until Saturday, but this worked out great! I told him that his binkie is lost and that he's a big boy now. He doesn't need it.

Last nite was a little rough. Nap time today was a bit rough, too. So far (he's been in bed 1/2 hour), he's not made a fuss, we had a talk about it, saying that he was going to be a big boy and have a good nite sleep.

So..here's to a binkie free life....I hope it continues to go this smoothly!!!!
