Cosette wants so badly to do what Ally does. She gets frustrated when she can't just stand up and run after her sister. We keep telling her that she has to crawl before she can walk, but she wants nothing to do with it. She gets so mad that she just lays her head on the floor and cries. It is really cute. Cosette loves that she gets to sit in the high chair next to Ally and eat when Ally eats. This morning Ally and Cosette were playing on the floor when I brought along a bowl of cheerios. Ally started eating them and shared them with her sister. Cosette was SO excited. She ended up eating all but a few of the cheerios that had made it into Ally's mouth. She is a super fast eater. Definetely loves food. Last night we were at my moms house and Cosette somehow reached out and grabbed a bowl of m&ms. We thought we had got them all from her when I noticed her little gums munching together. Sure enough, she got one and slyly got it in her mouth without us knowing. She loved it.

Cosette is so cute! Kaitlin never crawled...she just started walking. And with the desire to keep up with her big sister, Loral began walking at 10 months old! You never know what they are capable of! Older siblings definitely give them drive! Your girls are so sweet.
Tashina,
I think the biggest help with Natalie accepting the binky being gone was that they weren't actually all gone. I threw all but one away. The remaining one I cut just a little off the nipple - but enough to put a nice hole in it. Once a binky has a hole in it there is no suction - the binky is broken.
Anytime she asked or cried for a binky I gave it to her. She slept holding it for the first two or three nights. She asked for it for only two days. We just handed it to her and told her "it's broken". She handed it to multiple people here in the house and we all said the same thing. She finally accepted it.
This was the first time I tried this method. With Jeremy I simply tossed them. It took him a week. Natalie took about four to five days. Jeremy was 13mns and Natalie was 21mns.
However you do it. Best of luck. The first day or two is the worst. Kinda like everything.
