The Barnes Family

I dreaded the day I would have to get rid of my child's paci. He has always loved it but within the past few months he has become more attached to it. To the point where he was asking for it all the time, unless he didn't see it. If it was out of sight it was out of mind! He always asked for it and lambie when he was ready for a nap or bedtime. I was very against getting rid of it before the baby came but after our 18 month check-up the doctor suggested we go ahead and do it!
