I had finally had enough of the stupid stinky binky! EVERYWHERE we went, we had to make sure we packed at least two binkies, and I almost always had one in my purse and in my pocket "Just In Case"! She packed them around two or three at a time ALWAYS! And yesterday I had had enough! So thanks to Jo Frost (The Super Nanny) and Chelsea Johnson (who just did this with her son, thanks for the modivation) I decided that the Binky Fairy was going to come and visit us last night. After searching our ENTIRE house for binkies (I found like 20 of them, and found more this morning) we put them all in a bag. Then before bed time we gathered up the bag and took it outside for a farewell. She got to run around for about another 20 minutes before she got put in bed, and about every 2 minutes she would run to the window and look to see if they were still out there. And ya know to my surprise, she didn't cry at all for them when she got put to bed. She actually went right to sleep. But she has asked for them about 100 times this morning. But one night down, a billion more to go.

Waving Goodbye

Giving them one last hug

Seeing the "Fairy Dust" all over the front porch

Notice she's looking over to where her binkies were placed last night.

Checking out her prize that the Fairy brought. (Got to love the bed head!)

I think she likes it! And hopefully for me, we have said "Goodbye" to the Stinky Binky forever!
