No More Bippy

Until a week ago, this is what Thea looked like when she was tired. Her loving relationship with her bippy started at the hospital when she was born and it was very rare that she would ever fall asleep without it (she even got to keep it in during her surgery to put tubes in her ears)! We told her that 3 year olds didn't have bippies but with all the holidays we let it slip by. About a week ago she decided to trade all her bippies for..............



A CINDERELLA COSTUME (from the 1/2 off after Christmas sale)!


Adjusting her crown!


Right away I had to make the rule...NO PRINCESS SHOES ON THE STAIRS!



Brya and Nolan had to join in with their costumes too.....a cowgirl and a boxer!
All in all the transition has not been too bad. The first night involved alot of sobbing and wanting to trade back....it was a good thing that Daddy held firm because Mommy would have given in. Now it has been over a day since she has mentioned them. I guess she's not a baby anymore.........sniff, sniff!

Very bittersweet, isn't it? :-) Bradyn traded his for a John Deere ride-on tractor when it was time. How fast they grow...

i hear ya! mallory too loved her paci - she had it alll the time alll day though. one day she pitched the biggest and most embarassing fit at the store so i said thats it - you can't have your paci anymore and from that day on (with the exception of the car ride to the ER one day!!) she hasn't had it since! its so sad because they don't look like babies anymore...
