Operation: Turner UnPlugged

The big news of the weekend is that Turner has been pluggie FREE since Friday morning when she woke up!

She has been so good at school for the past week without it and sometimes not even asking for it. She has been sleeping great during her naps at school without it. So we were just going to experiment on how she would do without it during the night. And it went so MUCH better than we ever thought it would.

Aaron put her to bed on Friday night. He said she asked for "plugo" (21 month old talk for pluggie), and he just ignored her and changed the subject. She whimpered for a little bit but never starting crying and within a couple of minutes she was out and then 12 hours later she woke up. We were both AMAZED! She did so great her first night without it. Saturday nap went just as good...so did Saturday night.

She has only asked for it a hand full of times this weekend but we stayed strong and didn't give in.

It was one of my New Year's resolution to get her off the pacifer and it worked out so much better than I thought. I have heard stories from friends about what they went through so I was a little worried.

I know we are so lucky to have a very easy going child. Let's just hope she stays this way.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
