When Miles came back from the nursery with a pacifier in his mouth, I was livid. I nearly had Rob go tell the nurse to never use it again. THEN - later that week ( sometime shortly after Miles' circumsision) we noticed a pacifier lying next to his screaming, red face. We used it and haven't looked back. I am trying at this point to limit binky usage to naps and bedtime. <br />There was also my dream of exclusively breastfeeding for his first year. You know how that turned out:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09310518592856536378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377582441405318696.post-45672880964131768792014-06-14T07:04:54.736-04:002014-06-14T07:04:54.736-04:00Ah yes, I forgot about toy guns.

It's just a matter of time before we have nerf guns though. I can tell!

But the other kids remember the treats and keep encouraging her to use the toilet and then asked me for snacks. They remember so well...
