So We have been encouraging Abby to stop sucking her fingers when she sleeps. She picked up this habit at the nice age of 14 months after not sucking her thumb or taking a pacifier. What timing right. She chose to suck on her first finger on either hand. Well after many weeks of telling her she is a big girl now and needs to stop she decided that she was ready to give up her baby blanket and stop sucking her finger. When she got her nails painted on Monday after school I told her she couldn't suck on her fingers because her nail polish would come off. This week so far has been a challenge at night and I know the reason is because she is actually NOT sucking her finger. So last night we decided to give her baby blanket to the Baby Fairies to pass it on to the other babies that need it. We went outside and hung it on a tree, gave it a kiss and waved goodbye. Then the Baby Fairies came while she was sleeping and took the blanket, but left her a note and a present of a star necklace (because she is a superstar) and a princess Belle necklace set with bracelet. They also left her sister a Ariel necklace set since Abby asked the Fairies to also bring her nice sister a present. Wasn't that nice of them. :)
So we are no longer using our baby blanket and sucking our finger. Lets home that bedtime gets a little easier as it has been hard for her to go to sleep for the last two nights.
