This weekend, Aeneas made a leap toward becoming a full-fledged "big boy."  He slept without a tuffo (pacifier) for 4 nights in a row. (APPLAUSE)  Jared and I were forced into the daunting situation by our brilliant nanny, Dana, who had him taking naps without the tuffo for a week.  I told Aeneas that she had taken the tuffos because he's such big boy that he doesn't need one.  That began several night of withdrawal symptoms including crying, tossing and turning, and clinginess.  He and we seem to have survived the endeavor.  Plus, he got to pick out a playdough toy that makes spaghetti - only big boys get to play with toys that awesome.

Next up: potty training.
