End of an era

Well, maybe not an era, but definitely a big step in this house. We got rid of our binkys!! Since baby Olivia was born, we left our binkys for the Binky Fairy to bring to her. Since we're big kids now, we figured Olivia could use the them since she is a baby. And the Binky Fairy left us some cool presents for being such big kids! Granted, it was just one night, but there is no going back now. It took us a while to settle down to go to sleep, but there was no crying. And once we fell asleep, we slept the whole night and never woke up looking for them. Emma woke up around 6AM looking for one, but Mommy just told her it was too early to get up and put her back in her bed. Much less traumatic than Mommy thought it was going to be! I thik these things are harder for her than us! Anyway, here are some pictures of our presents!

The presents she left for us on the table
It's the Wonder Pets flyboat!
Sean was so happy!
Playing with our new favorite toy!

Of course, they are THE LOUDEST toys in the universe, but that's alright. No more binkys is a big deal and deserves a cool present.

Wonder pets, wonder pets, we're on our way . . . .
