We may have a thumb sucker


I have to admit, I think the thumb sucking is the cutest thing thing ever. Now, thumb sucking when they are one is not so cute. I have never had a thumb sucker. Do I need to worry and continue to take his thumb out and replace with a binki? Or just let it be and he will grow out of it? I am torn. Lets hear your comments.

Awwhhhh! He and Abbi share an addiction! They will be great friends, I can tell. I am still hoping that Abbi will grow out of it in time, but it's nice for now, since she won't take a paci. You will grow to appreciate it's soothing effects. It is my alert for when naptime is needed!

I can't get over how cute he is. I want to come up just so I can hold him again!! I would have to say try to slip a binkie in, it's easier to take a binkie away than it is a finger. If not you let him do it, don't most kids end up with braces anyways?:

hey... crew did that too when he was about 3 or 4 months old and i was so so so diligent about taking it out and giving him the binkie... and it WORKED... even though everybody told me it wouldn't..

I'm also an advocate for the binkie. It's easier to take it away when they are older -- the thumb is always with them and they will always have the ability to suck on it even when they really are too old.

Beckem is so cute! I love the picture on your card. Brent laughed because he looks put out having to sit between his sisters! Love it!
