Bye Bye Paci....Bye Bye Naps??


After we made it home from our family vacation, we told Braydon that we left the paci at the beach. No paci balloons, no paci fairy, just it's gone baby boy! I can't get over how well he's doing without it. He never asks for it and if he does he reminds himself it's at the beach.

However, our nights and naps have forever been changed....He went for days with no nap, until I resorted to driving around until he FINALLY fell asleep and I would transfer him. Great! But, Brooks would be ready to go just about the time I lay Braydon down. So at no point during the day is there any break....never 2 sleeping babies. So today I decided no car rides, we would go to target get some TOY STORY figurines and he would sit and play on his bed. I told him you sit here and play and when you wake up I will come get you. After 2 minutes he said, "Mommy, I am up, C'mon Mommy!!" I just let him say it 40 or 50 times for about 45 minutes and then after it silenced this is what I found....He's still sleeping! And guess who got a 30 minute power nap with little Brooksie! Thank goodness we haven't said "bye bye" to our naps too! I still really love them!
