I decided it was time to say good bye to the "binkie." Megan LOVES her binkie, so I was putting this off for as long as possible (she got to keep it much longer than Caelan or Ben). I'm not gonna lie - I was anticipating a real ordeal to get rid of it, but I knew it was time. When we got home for our Spring Break trip to CA I thought the time was right. I just threw them all away (cold turkey) and told Megan straight up that she was a big girl and didn't need a binkie anymore. Of course we still have binkies in the house for Nathan, so I thought that might cause a little tension. But she was totally and completely fine with the whole thing. There were a few time in the first 24 hours where she asked for it (especially during nap and bedtime), but I told her she didn't need one anymore and I got her cozy with her blanket and she was fine. There weren't tears or fits or hysterics. It's like she knew it was time too.
So, this is as close as she has come to having a binkie in her mouth for the past couple of weeks....HE HE HE.
