Thats funny...its like his cookie stash! I have no words of inspiration. The only thing that worked for us was cutting the tip off. She didn't want it after that. Then I told her that binkies were for babies and she needed to give it to the babies. I also told her it was broken. She never looked back after that. I'm sure since he is older it is harder. I don't envy you at this point!

That is so funny. We had a hard time with Brooklynn too. But I used my friends idea and it worked. It was awesome. If you check out my December 16th post you can see what we did. But keep a few binkies as a stash just in case. Good luck!

I love th binkies all line up in a row! Good luck! Jordan had finally bitten through his last one and we told him that we were not buying anymore and we made him throw it in the garbage and it work. I never thought he would get rid of it. He is so cute!

Oh...let me know if you find something that works. I would love to get rid of our binkie's. I tried one day and she just looked at me like I was the stupidest person on earth and went and found one that was hidden that I didn't know about. She has a major stash just like yours does. I hope to get rid of them soon. I'm going to start working towards only having it in the bed for nap and night??? We'll see... Love the pictures you posted. Major cuties you have. Love, Allyson

I can't believe how big Carter is getting of course Cambri is growing as well but Connor is still much bigger than she is. Good luck with getting rid of the binkie:) We really need to get together soon!!!

Cut the tip fo it off, if you are still trying. It worked with 2 of my kids! And it workd fast! They get rid of it themselves.

Please post the answer if you ever find a solution for the binkie!! Chandler is 3 1/2 and STILL has his. We tried the binkie fairy approach where he could leave his binkie under his pillow and then he would get ANYTHING he could possibly want, seriously ANYTHING! But he got his toy and then would give it back whenever he wanted his binkie!! But this approach worked great for my nephew so maybe give it a shot!! I am not going to lie the binkie is my sanity!!Good Luck!

Hannah stopped her bink obsession when she got sick this year. It just hurt too much to continue. She was the only one (except Makenna of course who still uses them) to actually use a bink. So I suppose I really don't have any good advice. I don't recommend having Carter get so sick he can't use it anymore! And that is the cutest picture of Carter!!! I love that he has a collection.
