So for those of you that don't know,
Coen is very attached to his
paci. His teacher at daycare has worked really hard from breaking him of it. He does well with not having it while he's at daycare or baby school as I call it. The only problem we have is when he comes home in the evening's or on the weekends, he thinks he has to have it until the next day at school. He pretty much stops talking when he has it in his mouth so we are wanting to break him of it for GOOD. Tuesday night at bed time we decided that the
paci had to go & we didn't allow him to have it. Let's just say, I'm glad that night is over. He cried, screamed and kicked in bed for a solid hour. Jonathan & I laid in bed with him for that hour to try & comfort him but he wasn't a happy little boy. It broke my heart to watch him cry for an hour but he finally calmed down and fell asleep with his blanket & his watch guards. That would be Calvin the giraffe & S
helly the turtle. He sleeps with them every night.
Coen has now gone 3 whole days without his pacifier. The only time he has cried for it was the very first night and the morning after. He has
whined for it just a little bit but other than that he has done so good. Even though it has only been 3 days & he could possibly have another break down, I just want to say how proud I am of him in becoming a big boy. We tell him that big boys don't need
paci's. So now he
calls himself "big boy". He just melts my heart & I LOVE him so much. We are so proud to be called mommy and daddy. It's the greatest feeling ever.
