I've always wanted one of these!



Everyone says I should put socks on his hands and make him stop but
I think it's the cutest thing this side of planet earth and I've always wanted a thumbsucker. He's getting really good at it too and that means he can soothe himself much sooner than the other three kids did. And you can't loose a thumb or drop it on the floor. Hallelujah! And for all of you that are thinking "There goes his teeth," guess what. All of my kids are going to need braces, according to the dentist, and they never sucked their thumbs. And I sucked my thumb till I was eleven and one of my best features nowadays is. . . my smile. So here's to the soothing power of thumbsucking and a happy baby! Suck away, Caleb!

Those are beautiful, priceless pictures of Caleb. He looks so content. None of my kids have sucked their thumbs since they were a few months old and my boys are binki babies...LOL! I love the idea of not having to "find it" and "wash it" 65 times during the day. Denise

 

Brendan is on his way to being a thumb sucker too! He's not as good at Caleb at getting it in his mouth though. He's more of a pointer finger sucker. I hope it lasts -- I'd love to not have to worry about the pacifier!

 

Do I see a hint of red in Caleb's hair?!?!
