We have been trying to limit Miriam’s pacifier (bobo) usage to sleep time only. We find that if we get it from her before leaving the house in the mornings we are pretty well set for a bobo free day (or at least until she gets super fussy before bed) Most of the time we have to take it from her under protest as we are rushing out the door or going into her babysitters house. I think that we are so use to seeing it in her mouth that it is like we over look it half the time and not notice she has it. My goal is to be bobo free by next summer. I don’t think a preschooler (age 3-4) running around in during awake times with a pacifier is very cute at all.
This morning M was not too happy about being woken up, so I took her into our room (with her bobo, blankie and kitty) to hang out while we finished getting ready. Ry got dressed first, so he got the prize of dressing M, afterwards she lounged on our bed until I told her it was time to go and that she was going to go play at C's house with the kids, Miri climbed off our bed with her blankie and kitty, she got about 1/2 way to the front door and looked back at me and said "OH NO!!! I have bobo and bobo go back to bed!" she then ran and put bobo in her crib and said "OK Mommy I ready!"
It was so funny – I guess we are getting through to her that bobo is for bed only!
