No Turning Back

The moment I have been waiting for--and dreading at the same time--is finally here!

While I know there is no such thing as the perfect time to go through the de-pacification of a child I really think Abby has picked the wrong time to do this as we are just recovering from a day of 103.6 fever/virus. This also means that she had her paci all day and is a little more paci dependent than usual (that is also how she wound up with a hole in her last paci). But what is a mom to do when her 2 1/2 year old asks to throw away her last paci? If I say no now, who knows when the next time would come! And with baby no. 2 due in exactly two months (yikes) we are a little behind on this milestone--wait any longer and I think we would have two little ones with pacis...and that is not happening at the Johnson abode!!

So, wish us luck! May the stronger one win!
