It's gone!

This is a follow-up post from this one. I loved all your comments and help you all gave me. I am the biggest wimp when it comes to my little Chelsea. She is my baby and I just wish I could freeze time. I really don't want her getting any bigger. I had decided to take the whole "getting rid of the bottle" slow, simply because I will miss my baby when she isn't a baby anymore. I know, LAME! Anyways, last night Chelsea and I were snuggling together. She had her blankie and she really wanting her bottle. I said, "Chelsea, bottles are for babies! Are you a baby?" She said, "no, I am not!!!" I said, "we need to throw your bottle away." She said, "OK!" She went and got the bottle, threw it in the trash. Then she asked for our back-up bottle, which is just like this blue one, but it is pink. I handed it to her and she threw that away also. I then told Dan he better hurry and dump the kitchen trash. At bed time SHE told me, "my bottle is gone, and I am not a baby!" She wasn't even sad! It was that easy. WOW!! So, I guess she just needed to be ready. YAAHOO, Chelsea! She also woke up dry so we are headed for NO pull-ups at bedtime next! She was excited to tell Christian and Auntie Marrianne all about it at church today. Now to get Melanie to stop sucking her thumb. We can't throw that away. Any ideas? This habit I will NOT MISS!
