We finally did it -- we managed to get Olivia to give up her pacifier (or, as she
calls it, her "mimi").
I was tired of listening to her say "Mommy, I need my mimi"....and so, on Friday night, we told her that we needed her to put them all in a box and wrap them up for baby Emma.
She was all for it. We found a pretty gold box, filled it will all her mimis and wrapped it up in Disney Princess wrapping paper...and put it under the Xmas tree for baby Emma. Then we told her that when Emma is born she can bring the present to the hospital.
It seems to have worked. She went to bed Friday night without asking for the mimi. And since then she's only asked for it twice -- much less of a fight than Kevin and I thought it would be.
Now, we must work on potty training. I would LOVE to have that somewhat mastered by the time Emma arrives -- it would be nice to only have 1 kid in diapers. :)
