The Binki Fairy

My "excuses" for letting Ella have a binki well beyond her third birthday (almost fourth) are many, long and varied. Before I had children I would often make snap judgements about the way mothers would handle their children and such. It didn't take me long after I had kids to stop doing that especially since Ella has had a binki this long and I see the quizzical, sometimes disgusted looks I get from strangers when they see a binki in her mouth. That being said, I now know not to judge other mothers and the things they do especially when it comes to binkis!

A special pkg in the mail!

Last day of binkis

The tooth fairy doesn't leave notes!

Ella was really excited that the binki fairy came and actually was ok with putting them in the envelope to send to the babies. Her big surprise the next morning was a movie and some dress up shoes. She was really excited and has done better than I thought she would without her face plug. She has only asked for it a few times but does mention every once in a while that she is not a big girl but still little. ha ha We are on day 5 and counting! Heaven help us...
