T minus 2

Only two days until Ror turns two. She is fast on her way to potty training herself. She decided about a week ago that she sits on the (big) potty now, goes there regularly, and actually uses it. A few days at home with some panties and I think we may be done. So last night I thought I would see if she could sleep without her pacifier. She has only used it at night and at nap time for about a year, and 2 has always been our estimated cut off date. So I put her in bed, and when she said, "Where paci?" I told her she is a big girl now and big girls don't use pacis. Pacis all went bye bye. She said, "Ok, pacis went bye bye" And that was that.

And this morning as I was driving to work I got weepy because I realized I just got rid of one of the last vestiges of her babyhood.

Yay Rory! I tried that and Addison told me, "I am baby then." We are still fighting the paci war. :)

That's awesome. You know, my mother had a difficult time getting me to get rid of my pacifier. She told me that they resorted to putting hot sauce on it to keep me from wanting it it.
