Anyway, back to the changes. We have begun "Operation Sucking Fingers No More." We are trying to get Ella to stop sucking her fingers. The dentist and doctor said that they usually stop on their own by the time they're 4, but I have a hard time thinking that she will quit by that time. You have to see this girl; it's an absolute addiction. Once she gets her blankie, or anything silky for that matter, she immediately puts them in her mouth. Well, Mama took all blankies and silky things away. I am glad to report that she hasn't sucked her fingers in the last three days; however, it has taken her an extra hour or so to finally go to sleep, not to mention numerous trips downstairs to talk then back to bed. I am hoping that in time I can give those precious things back to her.
Now either I am losing my mind or things are mysteriously disappearing from our house. First it was a pair of Ella's jeans, then one of my yoga videos, and now Sophie's paci and paci leash. I have searched the house up and down and cannot find any of those things! Ahh! So when Sophie lost her paci and leash, I couldn't see going out and buying more just so they would get lost again, so that was the end of that. The first night was tough, but she seems to be adjusting just fine. After taking Ella's blankies and Sophie's paci, I feel like I am the destroyer of all things they love. *sigh*

On to a lighter note, I'm done with Ella's room! I will put pictures up when the kids stop killing each other.
