Bye, bye binky's

The time has come for James to be done with pacifiers. We planned a big day to celebrate this new phase of his life. The day was full of fun things, the museum, presents, the playground, movies and special treats. At the end of the day James fell asleep without crying or asking for a binky at all. It was a huge success!

No more binkys smile!

Putting all the binkys in the mail box to send to some other (imaginary) baby.

Breakfast treat!

At the museum - David and James were holding hands all over the museum. It was so cute! But very hard to get a picture of because David would stop and run toward the camera the second it came into sight.

Presents! (we're on a bit of a sword/pirate/viking/knight/etc. kick)

Going to sleep with all his special things, he got a new stuffed dog, and just couldn't put his sword down, even for sleeping!

  1. Grace, this is so cute! What great pictures! We hope he got a chance to get the movies yesterday. Sometimes the 8 hr time change throws us for a loop. I'm remembering James and cameras when David was born. Remember we couldn't get a picture of them because he would want the hamwa. Congratulations to James! And what smart parents to turn the day into a celebration!

  2. Looking at these pictures again today. James looks so much like you in that first picture, Grace. I always see it, but it's never been more striking! And that picture of the boys at the museum holding hands with Dad's hands on their heads is so sweet, even though you can't see their faces. Actually they're all wonderful.

  4. What a clever way to say goodbye to the binkies! I love it that you "mailed" them! James looks so proud and the boys so sweet holding hands. What a great celebration!
