Bye, bye binkies

Well we have been meaning to wean Kaden from his binkies for a while now, and so this weekend we decided to just go cold turkey. We gathered up all his binkies and took them to the store. Then we told him to pick out a toy that he wanted to "buy" using his binkies. He picked two little monster trucks and "paid" the cashier with his binkies. He asked a couple times for his bink at bed time, but when I reminded him that he gave them all to the cashier for his trucks he didn't fuss at all, and slept with the trucks the first night instead. So far so good- no binks for 2 nights (and last night he stayed in his own bed all night too!)
