Since we tried to potty train last month with out much success, we decided that it was time to take away the binkis instead. I didn't want to be one of those Moms who has a 5 year old toddler in tow with a binki still in his mouth. So we braced ourselves and FINALLY did it! I wanted to take them away cold turkey but also wanted to be positive about it, so we decided to take him to Target and let him trade in the binkis for ANY toy in the store. He chose a BIG sheriff car that was $13.00 and worth every penny! I was shocked at how easy it was and how quickly he caught on. Only a few minutes of crying for both naps and bed time over the weekend with the exception of one awful naptime incident (but someone was WAY overly tired). I'm so proud of my big boy, I can't believe how old he's getting.
Here he is, showing me his cool new sheriff.
He got mad I was taking so many pictures so he pulled these silly faces instead of smiling. Typical boy.
