Our weaning method is working even better than expected! It has made going to bed something Will is excited about (“Binky time! Nite-nite, Daddy, nite-nite, Mommy!”) and he completely understands how the system works. This morning, when Paul went to get Will out of his crib, Will had already put “up” his binky so that he could be lifted out of the crib to start in on morning playtime.
A bonus: his already impressive vocabulary is now growing at an alarming rate. This kid does not stop jabbering! We love it.

Of course! Ask Katherine, it was his first word. 🙂

Don’t you mean Beignet????

To Will, everything sweet falls into the category of “treat.” (“Chocolate” means chocolate milk. He asks for “chocolate agua, peaz” when he wants chocolate milk. He hasn’t quite caught on to the idea that chocolate exists outside of liquid.)
We must not eat beignets enough for him to distinguish them properly — obviously, this is something we need to work on! 🙂
