As you all have noticed...that Kayhbree has a bit of an issue with taking the bink out of her mouth. I have to steal it from her to try to get some picture of her without it in her mouth. She ALWAYS has it. ...ALWASY. And not just one...she has one in her outh, and one in her hand, then one in a hiding spot, JUST in case I take one from her and "forget" to give it back. I'm pretty sure that we, by ourselves, have kept Wal-Mart's binky collection down to the slim pickings. It seems like once a week we were buying a new pack of binks, because SOME HOW we manage to lose every bink in our house. I swear one day we will find this hiding spot, and a pile of 100 binks. Now we just need to figure out where that spot is...and who keeps hiding them...bree or the cat.
SO...we decided now is the time. No more buying binks. It was time to end the binky addiction. We thought we would try just making her leave it in her crib....umm.....that didn't last long. She just sent big brother to climb in the crib to retrieve the golden treasure for her. SO the next step was the big snip. We snipped the ends off of all the binks we could find. The first night was a long long night of lots of tears. But after that, she has done great! She still likes to carry them around, but no longer has them in her mouth all day long. few days after the first snip, we snipped a little more. They are almost to the point where she can't even keep it in her mouth if she tries...kinda cute though! :)
These pictures were taken right after the first snip. This is her new way of carrying them around..on the tip of her fingers.
