No binky?!?!?!?!





It has been an interesting weekend. Eric and I decided that Isaac was old enough to put the binky away. I have heard of many ways to do this but I wanted to make it a special day for him. So we got up early in the morning and went to Jeremiah's for breakfast. We ordered him a chocolate chip pancake... I don't know why we do this because he only takes one bite of it and then spends the rest of the time eating the fruit. The fruit this time was Watermelon and he ate at least 2 huge pieces. We had to ask the waitress for more. Anyway... Then we boarded the train to ride down to Salt Lake.We hopped on trax and rode to the gateway. On the way down, we explained to Isaac what we were doing with his binky... He looked at us and said "I ride the train!!!!!" We went to build a bear and let him pick out a turtle to put the Binky in. We then named him Mr. Binx. He was doing fine until it came time for bed. He looked at dad and said "Where's Binky?" Eric told him that he was in Mr. Binx and that was where he was living now. He cried but fell asleep anyway. He woke up 3 times that night crying so hard. Eric was very sad... He didn't want to get rid of the binky. But it was time, right? He's adjusting... He only woke up one time last night and cried... We're improving.

    And Isaac will get over the binky. Just give him some time. Sometimes I'm glad Copeland hated those things, because I wouldn't want to break him of it--it must me difficult!
