where have all the pacifiers gone?
Finny woke up after about an hour of his nap this afternoon. I knew he wasn't ready to get up yet because he was crying with his eyes closed. (If he's ready to get up he usually wakes up happy and wide awake.) Anyway, I went in there to help him lie back down and I looked for a pacifier to stick in his mouth. There are usually a couple along the edge of his crib, but there weren't any there this time. This means I had to leave the room...after he had already seen me...and go find a pacifier. Meanwhile, Finny is crying hard. I can't find them anywhere. All 5 pacifiers are missing. I rarely carry them with me anymore because he just doesn't use them all that often. He can fall asleep fine without them...unless he needs a little more help in the middle of a nap...hence my frantic searching. Well, I finally gave up the search and was just going to lie him back down when I saw them...all 5 pacifiers. They were thrown across his room, scattered on the floor. It took me awhile to figure out what had happened. Apparently, when he's upset or mad and trying to go to sleep he throws them out of his crib...this is probably about the time when he is yelling Mama. Have I told you that the ONLY time he says Mama is when he's mad??? Whenever he's happy, it's Dada...but I'm not bitter. Finny is finally back asleep...with the remaining 4 pacifiers in his crib ready to be thrown the next time Mama lies him down for a nap. =)

Keep this story, it will probably reverse when Finn gets to be a teenager. You will be yelling, "Finley, get back here; I'm not finished talking to you!" You might even want to throw something (maybe a pacifier). Love you all!
Boy, oh boy, I remember those days of frantically searching for a pacifier.
