It's been a while!
Just a quick little update on us. Fischer has been paci-free for a little over a week now. He has done SO well without it. I must admit, his mama was more upset about getting rid of it than he was. Call me silly, but I had a really hard time giving it up. This was the absolute last thing keeping my baby a sweet baby.
Friday the 29th Darah kept Fischer for me. Owen gave up his paci about a month prior, so she hid Fischer's so Owen wouldn't get any bright ideas. That afternoon she sent me a text to tell me he went down for a nap without his paci and did really well, so I decided it was time. The first couple of days were rough, but not because he was so rotten without it, but because I was so emotional about him not being a baby anymore. He asked for paci a couple of times, but when he did I would tell him that he left it at Mrs. Darah's house and the puppies got it. Now when you ask him where paci is he gets SO tickled and says, "Mama, dog got paci".
On another note...
Fischer took swimming lessons last week. He did okay with it. He screamed bloody murder as soon as he saw the neighborhood where the lessons took place, but we would hide and watch him and he did great. She said he was one of her best 2 year olds because he actually listens to what she says. She told us she could tell he wasn't babied and that we were great parents. It made me feel great, but at the same time I was wondering whose child she had! I highly recommend her for lessons, though. She was very good with him. If I can ever figure out how to use my video camera, I will upload a video on here.
