This past weekend was an eventful weekend....for Addison. We decided to take away her binkie (pacifier). She was only getting it at naptime, bedtime and car rides (if that is not enough). Bob and I always said we were going to take it away by the time she turns 2 and well, that is just 6 days from now. She was a bit devastated to say the least. It took 90 minutes for her to fall asleep the first night and her first nap on Saturday did not go too well either. We kept her very busy this weekend with a b-day part to attend, a Cardinals game and a bbq. We kept her up late every night to insure she was going to be tired and maybe would fall asleep ok because she would be exhausted. I guess it worked. She has slept pretty darn well despite not having her binkie (she was very attached to it). She is still asking for it but hopefully will recover from this shock very soon. We are anxious for her 2nd b-day on Sunday....she is such a big girl.
Also this weekend we stopped swaddling Lucas. That may not seem like a big deal to most people especially if you don't have kids, but Lucas was swaddled with his blanket every night for bed. He took this change very well though!
Here are some pictures from Sunday. It was actually not extremely hot for a change so we got to spend a ton of time outside. I was able to take the kids for a walk in the morning and we hung out in the backyard with the neglected swing set. The kids had a great time and even played to together for a little bit.
