No more babies in this house!
Well we did it!! Neither girl use pacifiers anymore! After such a torturous week trying to wean Ryan from hers we decided Bekah's should go too before she is as addicted. Bekah never really sucked on it just chewed it until she fell asleep. Once she was asleep she didnt use it. She would then give it to us as soon as she woke up. So we decided to see how she did if we didnt give it to her. The first night she asked for it and I just said, "nah you dont need that." She just laid down and held her hand towel to go to sleep (yah she has an obsession with my kitchen hand towels!). Yep it was that easy! That has helped Ryan tremendously! Ryan does still ask but no more screaming tantrums at nap time and she is now sleeping all night again. We also switched the girls from whole milk to 2% since Bekah is old enough and gaining weight. We waited to switch Ryan because Bekah didnt always drink enough to buy only her whole milk. Since Ryan is far from over weight we knew it wouldn't hurt her. The other big switch is we quit using baby laundry detergent for their clothes. They are officially Tide kids! I guess you can say it's been a week of changes for these girls! Ryan was upset to give up the red milk for the blue but otherwise I think they are adjusting well! So for 11 weeks it will seem like we have no babies around here anymore! That is until tomorrow when one of them has a meltdown and I have to change Bek's diaper! haha!
