Another Resemblance!!!

The only difference here is that Linus has dark hair and Eastons is white. Easton asked me if Linus' blanket looked like his when it was washed. He must have realized how gross his looks. Oh well what do you expect when you carry it around everywhere you go.

We keep trying to tell him that his teeth are going to fall out and that his thumb will fall off but he does not care. Does any one have any suggestions on how to break someone from thumbsucking. I would appreciate any help we can get. I would hate it if he was still sucking his thumb and receiving his diploma from High School at the same time. Oh well- I hope everyone has a good day.

Hi Traci - Meghann sucked her thumb until about half way through Kindergarten. I started to worry about it and would tell her not to suck it...all that stuff and everyone told me, "Don't worry, she'll stop." It's true - she did and she doesn't even have deformed teeth! He'll stop. Maybe you'll get someone with some real advice! :)

Hi Traci,

Alli sucked her thumb and gave it up on her own when she started school. There is a little peer pressure when they start Kindergarten and that seems to do the trick. Now Gracie still sucks her thumb when she goes to sleep but I don't care about that. That is how she soothes herself - I once had a pedi tell me that braces were less expensive than a lifetime of therapy.

Oh he is too cute! I love thumb suckers I tried to force my girls to suck their thumb but they wouldn't! I wouldn't worry I am sure he will out grow it!

He's so cute! I always wanted a 'little Linus.' :) Have you tied the stuff that you put on their thumb that tastes nasty? A friend of mine used it and said it worked like a charm. Good luck!

No advice on the thumb sucking, but he sure is cute!!

Emma came home from pre-school today and said that she was so sad because Traci Butler is moving to California. Any ideas where in the world she got that idea??

OK, I figured she was confused. I told her I really doubted the Butler's would be up and moving to CA! She said they were talking about Disneyland, so that is probably what started it. That is funny--silly girls.

Hey Traci-That is so cute. He is a doll. I can't say that I have any experience with thumbsucking but good luck with that. I hope you all are doing well. I love the pictures from high school, that cracks me up. Anyway have a great day.
