one thing at a time


So, we moved into our new apartment which is some sort of vortex of static electricity, best illustrated in Sloane's hair. And I tied one binkey to the doorhandle so that Cort, who is TWO AND A HALF, could now cut down to binkies only for naps and bedtime. This one he can have whenever he wants, only he can't have any fun...just stand next to the door with his binky. Our new home is pretty nice, but not as cool as the last ones because the kids can not go outside without me and we don't have many neighbor friends.
Luckily, we can (and frequently do) walk to our old favorite Stacy's coffeehouse.

You always inspire and crack me up with your brillant mothering tactics...glad you documented the pacifier one. How did you think of that? Would it be too cruel to tie Baby Bunny to a door knob along with Camille's thumb? any brilliant ideas of how to transition out of that combo?

There were only three trees to decorate in Minonk. Just took them down and counted. It was tons of fun to decorate with the kids!!!!! Mom Sandy
