Around mid-March, we started training the boys to sleep without a paci. They did pretty well the first night, and as a reward we took them to Build-A-Bear to get a new stuffed animal for each of them to sleep with. Unfortunately, the paci training failed miserably. Instead of showing improvement, the boys got worse each night, and after a week of no sleep and everyone getting sick, Evan and I caved in on the 7th night. Oh well, we figured we'll just try again later this summer! Despite our failure, here are some pics from our fun outing at Build-A-Bear. Both boys ended up picking a monkey and a pair of Disney Cars pjs...
Ben got to stuff his monkey first...
Then, he checked to see if monkey had enough stuffing...
Bryce had fun on his turn!
Time to pick out a heart to put inside the monkeys...
And, here they are giving monkey his heart...
I think Ben was trying to convince the guy to let him put another one in!
Ben was ready to dress monkey in his new pjs...
But, they had to give monkeys a bath first...
And, a good brushing and blow drying...
Then, it was time to name their babies and print out the birth certificates. I think Ben picked the name "Red" because that's the color of Lightning McQueen, and Bryce named his Francisco, another Cars character. But, they both ended up just calling their babies, "monkey."
The adoption is almost complete...
Time to go home!
The boys played with their new babies when we got home...
I asked them to sit still for a picture...
Then, Bryce rested on the floor with his baby, while Ben took his shopping...
Then they all went shopping...
After baths, Ben curled up with monkey to watch TV on our bed...
And, Bryce too...
Then, we all went to bed, and the boys took turns crying all night. :(
