Back by popular demand!

So much for my goal to update this blog at least once a week! I promise I'll get better after this weekend (and my diet starts Monday, too)! haha

Lots of things that I should have been talking about on here though!

Let's start with Isaac... he DID give up his pacifier! He's asked for a handful of times in the last few weeks. We've just told him, "sorry, you threw it away" and he seems to accept that! YEAH! Bedtime hasn't been quite as easy, but it's getting better each day! It was almost like it really took a couple weeks for it to set in. He started fighting bedtime and crying... Andrew said it was the fight we should have had two weeks before that. But, he's getting better, the last couple of nights have been perfect!

Potty training isn't going quite as well. He sits on the silly thing, but so far hasn't had much luck! Hopefully once I'm off work we can really work on it a little more!

Friday is my last day!!!!!! I'm so excited! I've got a few other things up my sleeve to bring in a little extra cash too!

So there's a little window in to our world! I really do intend to post more often now that I should have a little more time. You know, in between diaper changes, feedings, breaking up fights, laundry, and cleaning!

So, Could this really work?

I THINK Isaac gave up his pacifier today!

He found one in the car this morning and as usual I was playing with him by telling him that he should get rid of that yucky thing! I told him we should throw it away. He laughed and told me it was "yucky" and "dirty". We've had this conversation before, so I didn't think much of it.

But, when we got back in the house, I told Andrew that Isaac said that he wanted to throw it away. Isaac perked up, and said "yeah, in the garbage!".

Then, and here's the best part, he took it to the garbage and threw it in! We kept saying, "are you sure, this means no more paci?". And in it went!

For nap time, he didn't even notice that he didn't have it! At bed time, he asked about it, but we told him he threw it away and he accepted it. He went to sleep without a tear!

Could it really be this easy?
