Here Comes the Binky Fairy!

Miss Lily woke up Monday morning announcing that her teeth hurt and that she thinks the pain is from her pacifier use. As Lily put it, "my body is saying no, no, no, but my heart is saying more, more more." Even so, and completely on her own, she decided to stop using her "Paci." As with all of Lily's transitions, the process has been smart, sweet and simple. She has been Paci-free all week (only one night did she call me into her room asking for a Paci. Tired, I passed one to her and walked away. She immediately called me back to return the Paci-as she "just wanted two sucks.")

Here you see Lily with her new dolly, Lulu. Whenever Lily feels the need to pacify, she simply gives Lulu her pacifier. Done. Case closed.

We are so proud of you, Lily.
