The battle of the binkie

I know I should be blogging about Christmas… and I will.  But today the battle of the binkie is on in our house.  Have I ever mentioned that we took the binkies away from Cooper and Chase in March 2010?  It went well we threw them in the garbage at Wal Mart and got the boys new bikes.  All is well… right?  Wrong.

It shouldn’t matter, right?  But now he doesn’t just suck he bites and he bites holes in them.  Last night we had no binkies that didn’t have holes in them.  Ellie was sick and wanted her binkie and every one I would give her she would cry and say “Boken”.  It was sad and I was mad!  We’re going on a family trip soon and I’m not going to punish all the people around us on the plane, but when we get back our home is going to become a binkie free zone! 

PS I’m a horrible mother… right after I posted this Chase came in to me and said in the nicest, sweetest 3 year old voice ever “Mom, can I please have that damn binkie?”

Nice… apparently that’s what I say now. Mother of the year right here!

I love it! Could perhaps be a tad more polished, but it’s far better than what we use at the moment, nonetheless
