"nuk fairy"

Thursday night was Kaiya's first night sleeping without her nuk.
We made a special box for her to put her nuks in and told her that the "nuk fairy" was coming to take all her nuks to new babies who needed them more than she did. We packed up her nuks and left them outside the front door.
She was asleep within 10 mins of going to bed, and did not wake up once all night long!! First thing in the morning we ran to the front door to see if the "nuk fairy" came and if she left a special present in their place! Of course she did!! She left a Backyardigan play-doh set! Kaiya spent the first part of the morning playing with her big girl play-doh.
Nap time.. didnt exist the first day, but was much better the next. Its been 3 nights now with no nuk, and its like it never existed!
Kinda makes me sad though.. means my little girl is no longer a baby and I have to face the reality that she is in deed growing up :(
I am so proud of her though!

Can you imagine the smiles on the people going by your apartment door? It's adorable and I'm glad it worked so well.
