After learning that Jonah’s binkie sucking had caused his teeth to move, I set a date to be done. The date was August 12th. We built it up for a week and then last night he came to an end. I say “he” because binkie has always been a “he”. I have said before how his froggie binkie has been a life saver. So here it is, Jonah and his froggie binkie through the past 3 years.
(yes, I would coordinate frog blanket and hat with froggie binkie)
I LOVE this picture.
I love this one almost as much.
Probably should have gotten rid of it around this time of his life.
And then yesterday, I let him have it all afternoon.
He was so excited, but didn’t understand what was happening.
Brandon wanted to do the honors. We cut the tip off so he can still hold the froggie part.
And this is what it tasted like after trying it in his mouth.
I admit I got teary eyed as we did it. He loves his binkie, I have loved his binkie, my little Jonah baby is growing up! He had a hard time going to sleep, but managed to chew on part of the part that was left. Hopefully he will still take naps!

I dread getting rid of Sadie's! She has hers all day long and it is awful on her teeth.
I guess I have lucked out that three of my five have been finger/thumb suckers and there is no damage to their teeth! But, on the flip side, I can't exactly cut the tips of their fingers/thumb off...
this is so sad.
like something that should have its own music video.
A. Brooke's comments crack me up.
B. I love you Melanie Evans
C. That is the cutest little boy in the world. Please tell me I can come visit you because I have no life now.
