This spring we knew it was time to give up the night-time pacifier once and for all, though we had been trying for a year. So Scott and I decided to give Emma an incentive. Every night she slept without it, she earned a little pool toy, which would lead to the big prize--a Disney Cars swimming pool for the backyard. Ever since she caught a glimpse of it in the store, she just had to have it. (Surprisingly, she had never seen the Cars movie and didn't know the characters.) So when it sold out in early June, we were on a major hunt. No other pool compared to this one according to Emma, so we ordered it from the one available retailer online. (Well, we had made a promise.) I'm happy to report that the pacifier is long gone, and Emma loved every cold-water minute of her pool time!
