Next time...


Today was a very special day. That is if we can get through the next few days of no more pacifier, aka "mi-mi." 
Yesterday, I acted as though I flushed one of your pacifiers down the toilet...and that's where you wanted to put the rest today. Of course, I pretended to do it yesterday and today I had to come up with a reason why you couldn't put them in the toilet yourself. Yikes...that's the last thing we want dad to do is fix another backed up toilet! 

Anyhow, you were pretty adamant that you were done with them and wouldn't need them when you got tired today! 
Wrong! You cried this afternoon for them...to the point where Jacob said he was tired of hearing you cry. I reassured you that it was ok to be sad for a couple days and then we moved on. We skipped naps and put in a DVD. Jacob requested Dumbo, and because you are so sweet you agreed:). 

The rest of the night was normal. Dinner, ice cream, silliness with dad and Jacob and 6+ books and you were out. You didn't request your pacifier...but you did sit up and say "next time I want to get rid of my mi-mi...don't do it!"

Oh and how could the day be complete without mentioning the newest addition to the family! Welcome Fish, a female beta. In fact you told everyone his morning that you were getting a fish...and that's what we did. 
I forgot to mention that you were ready to get rid of him before we even got in the door, because it was that time of the day and you would rather have your pacifier!



We ended the night with prayers. I said a little silent prayer. It went something like "Dear God, please help Julia give up her pacifier, but not her NAP!!!!"
