The boppi is gone!

I'm happy to say that as of Monday night, Mark has been sleeping through the night without his pacifier (or as he says, his boppi)! I have been putting it off for a while, but I knew the time was coming quickly. I wanted him to be rid of it by his 2nd birthday for sure, and honestly I am tired of keeping up with it! Is that ridiculous of me? I don't think that it is but he can't hold on to it forever. I have really been dreading the whole process of putting him to bed at night and hearing him scream for it, but he has done extremely well without it. I just explained to him that I gave it away to a little baby who needed a paci and he was perfectly fine with it :) Then he went to bed and threw them all away!
For the longest time I thought that I wouldn't even deal with using one with our next child, but he made a smooth transition so I think for my sanity out next child will be getting a pacifier. Maybe when that day comes that child won't take to it and I won't have a choice, but either way I'll be fine and so will the little one.
