Bye Bye Ba!

Jacob loved his Ba (his paci) - he would have that thing 24/7 if I let him. But all good things must come to an end!

When Sarah gave up her paci, she decided she was going to send them to the baby Meerkats at the zoo. Which didn't surprise me..they are her favorite animal at the zoo.

We decided that on Halloween he needed to give it up. We asked him everyday leading up to Halloween what was going to happen. He would say "Ba goes to baby meerkats!" He knew that only big boys can go trick or treating...and big boys don't use a Ba!

So, after trick or treating that night-

He enjoyed it one last time

Then it was time to pack it up and send it off!

He was quite proud of himself


And placed it on the front step so the mailman could take to the zoo!

The transition was a lot easier than I thought it would be. The second night was rough, but we made it.

The only problem now is that everytime we see the Meerkats at the zoo, Jacob is looking to see which baby meerkat has his Ba!!
