So we've decided it's time for Ava to say goodbye to her second half...the beloved binky. She is almost 3 years old and I'm SO tired her always saying "I want my binky!!!!" So for her reward system, she gets a little prize everytime she goes to bed without one. And today the Easter "bummy" actually called our house (thanks Grandma Moyes for getting us in touch with him! :)) and told Ava it was time to give the binky up! Ava was incredibly excited about that! So today it only took 45 minutes of blood curling screaming and I had to lay with her until she fell asleep. Not bad...and I hear it only gets better....right? right? :) Wish us luck!
congrats. It does get better, but nap time is the hardest. You just have to get on the phone with someone and have them distract you while your child wails. That's what helped me.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly does get easier. Every time she goes to sleep it will get a little easier until one day you look at her and you can't even imagine that she used to have a binky.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, your poor ears! 45 minutes...only Ava!:) I love her to pieces, but that little girlie has a set of lungs!
ReplyDeleteYIKES! I am going to be there soon! Brooklyn is getting more and more obbsessed with it. I should do it now too, but with a baby coming who will have one...might be a bad idea! Good luck and let us know the progress. I am very interested!
