We've been going through a bit of withdrawal around here.
Matthew at six months, just hanging in his crib
Almost one, cruising the furniture with his soother...
Two years old, sharing tips with his brother

Matthew gave up his soother last weekend.
It's been hard, at times. But, I think the worst is over.
Today, he received his incentive package :) and he is quite proud of himself. It was time to give it up (he's three and a half), but it was quite a habit to break.
Here's a little trip down memory (soother) lane...

Two and a half, waking up
Almost three years old, having some quiet time
We will miss you, dear soother. We will never forget how you helped us through the night, kept things quiet during Church or all the peace and quiet you offered us over the years. But, we've moved on (well, Caleb hasn't but there's still time for him)

YEAHHHHHHHHH Matthew. Grandma is proud of you. It was hard at times but you did it. I will miss the soother (quiet times) at times too. Welcome to Max and Monty.
i am really not looking forward to the day that i finally make lily give up her binky (as we call it here in the states...or at least this part of the country anyway) :)
Congratulations to Matthew! What a brave big boy.
great job matthew!
my parents conveniently "lost" my soother at a restaraunt once when i was 1½.
please teach us..Maya will be 3 in May. I really do think its time to get rid of the thing....ummm how?
The best bribery comes from Thomas and Friends!
Incentives are always good :0)
Giving up the binky can be a hard thing to do. Good for Matthew!!!
Yay Matthew. Love the incentive, that certainly helped, no? :)
