Avery and Emerson got a visit from the Paci Fairy this weekend and I am happy to say that they have given up their pacifiers and it could not have been easier!\u00a0 I came up with the idea of the Paci Fairy while at work Friday afternoon.\u00a0 I thought it would take a few days of Justin and me talking about it with the girls before we could implement it successfully.\u00a0 Well I was wrong\u2026it literally took five minutes!\u00a0 I brought the idea up to the girls just before they were going to bed Friday evening.\u00a0 It was so preliminary that I hadn\u2019t even discussed it with Justin yet.\u00a0 I told them big girls don\u2019t use paci\u2019s and asked them if they wanted to be big girls and give their paci\u2019s away to the little babies.\u00a0 They said yes right away so we went with it.\u00a0 We immediately grabbed a zip lock baggie and took turns placing their pacifiers in it.\u00a0 We sealed it tight and then all walked to the front door where we placed the bag outside for the Paci Fairy to come get during the middle of the night.\u00a0 The girls said they wanted the Paci Fairy to bring them balloons\u2026something that the Paci Fairy could easily handle I\u2019m sure.\u00a0 The girls went to bed with no problem and slept through the night no problem.\u00a0 They were excited when they woke up to see that the Paci Fairy had not only brought them each a balloon, but also play-doh.\u00a0\u00a0The girls each asked for their pacifiers a few times over the weekend, but once they were reminded that they gave them away to the Paci Fairy, they were fine!\u00a0 Seriously, I am still amazed at how easy it was!\u00a0 I\u2019m hoping potty training is this easy!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
