As of Yesterday......I am getting rid of the NUK!!! Ahhhh, I can't believe it, but it really needs to happen. She is totally obsessed, and stresses out about it constantly. It has been "my" security just as much as her own. She sleeps so well with it, and she quiets down during a fit, I just haven't wanted to do it. But, she will be completely happy and content then all of a sudden starts asking for it. She says " nuh, nuh, peass, peass ", then I just can't resist. It was so hard yesterday when I put her down for her nap. She screamed the whole time (about and HOUR) then another Hour when she woke up. She also cried about 45min last night at bed time and a little this morning before I gave her some chocolate milk. Anyway, lets see how long it takes her to get over it. Dejah cried when I told her I was taking it away. Poor thing. Now I just have to keep her from seeing this picture I am posting....she will FREAK if she sees it.
If you know Dejah at all, you know that she is obsessed with being a princess. Well, her new favorite is a cartoon called Anastasia. It is the ULTIMATE in princess movies! She dances around the house singing this song. It is so cute. I would probably try to video her doing it, but she is way too camera shy.
Good Luck Anna! Hopefully it won't take long, and she will be over it. I understand how hard it is, but it is so nice to be rid of them. I hate constantly having to look for them, and make sure we always have them. So it is a relief for me when they are gone. Anyway, good luck, and just remember it won't last forever.
ReplyDeleteI have witnessed the adorable begging for the nuk...hard to resist her pleas!!! I love the movie Anastasia as well, way better than disney flix.
ReplyDeleteI used to think I wouldn't let Corbin have a binky when he was sleeping but I love it. I don't know when I am going to get rid of it. I think they are wonderful, he can have his until he is 12. I did read somewhere that you can poke the binky's with a needle and it takes away the suction and the kids don't like to suck on them any more. That could be one approach. Good luck.
