Paisley, the Pacifist

P must sleep with a pacifier. 

We are so lucky that we have a daughter who sleeps at least 12 hours through the night...

as long as she is able to find a pacifier.

Someone once told me to just throw several in her crib and she is bound to find one.

Well, we throw about SIX in her crib every night.

It has been very successful.

She sleeps with one in her mouth, and the others... well...

She must hold them all. 

This is how I find her every morning when I go to get her out of bed.

And then she must sample them all.

If she has one in her mouth, she will take it out and trade it for another.

I'm beginning to think that holding one in her hand is just as soothing to her as the one in her mouth.

She loves her pacifiers, and that is OK by me!

They have allowed me many wonderful night's sleep

(once she was actually able to put them back in her mouth herself.)

Since this post was about her pacifiers, I thought I would break out one more "special" pacifier.

We bought this pacifier before she was born as a joke knowing one day she would have big teeth

like her mommy and daddy.
