Whew!

Do you notice anything missing?

Can’t figure it out???
Look again…


It’s this
For a while now Cady has been waking up in the middle of the night. First she was sick, then it was her teeth, but then she would just wake up. It was EVERY night, sometime 2, 3 or 4 times. We would go in, help her find her binky lay her back down, and she would go right back to sleep. Then, she started losing it during the day and would whine until we found it. We spent more of the day looking for it than anything else.

So, here in the Hamilton House we are breaking the Binky habit! The original plan had been that when Cadence turned 18 months she would only get to have it at nap time and bed time. Then when she turned 2 we would get rid of it all together. Beginning last Friday morning, that plan went out the window. I figured that we are already a little sleep deprived so we might as well get it all over with!

We are mostly Binky free for 5 days (nap time and bed time for the first 2 days) and totally Binky free for 72 hours. YAY! I lift my hands in praise to the Lord because it hasn’t been bad at all. Actually, it has been SO MUCH BETTER! There has been way less whining, naptimes have been longer and more restful and she hasn’t been up in the night at all!

WHEW!

  1. Yeah!! That is funny that this happened right after Wyatt being born. We did the same thing with Kylee. Right after Jaxon was born, we took hers away for only naptime and bedtime. So, she still has it for those, but she can find it herself. I don't know when we'll ever break that. Maybe Kindergarten??? :)

    ANd, Wyatt is SOOOO cute in your last post!! Love his hair!!

    Hope your doing okay!!
