Binky Rehab

Anyone who knows Sienna knows she is OBSESSED with her binky. I have attempted to get rid of it on numerous occasions and she is so horrible that I just give it back for my own sanity. (I know.. i have no patience!) SO awhile back my mom got a book at Target called "BYe Bye Pacifier" It's about a little boy who takes his binky and mails them off to the babies that need one. It's one of Sienna's favs and so the other night after she read it I said "Should we mail your binkies to the babies that need them?" and I got an excited "YEA!" in response. What!?! We usually get "NO!" So I jumped on it. We went and got all her binkies and she put them in the envelope and we sealed it up and took it to the mailbox. Here are pictures of the joyous event!

One last time with binky

Mailing it off to the babies that need them!

We then went to Target to get her a toy for being so nice and giving her binkies up!

So it has been 2 days and I feel like I am in a drug rehab! She has done pretty well though considering her obsession! She went to sleep okay the first night but yesterday had NO nap and had a hard time going to bed. She asks me to go get the binkies back from the mailbox and she keeps stealing Austins saying she is "borrowing it" Then as luck would have it she woke up this morning with a horrible flu (she had the flu a week ago!!) and a fever which makes her want for the binky even worse! I have stayed strong though telling her we mailed them and she is doing better. She has just been watching her new favorite movie- Aaron & I's wedding video! She has never watched a whole movie in her life but she will sit and watch it getting so excited all the people she knows are on TV! So funny! But for any parents out there with young ones, get rid of the binky as early as possible or this will be you!! =)

Our exciting news of the week:
AUSTIN SLEPT UNTIL 4 AM!! YAY! Well he woke up at 1 AM but I just put his binky in and he went back to sleep. He goes to sleep so well on his own. Maybe I can start getting a little bit more sleep now...just maybe!
