Stella loves her pacifier, but not like she used to. She used to suck away at it, but now she just wants to chew on it. The problem with this is that while chewing, she can't figure out how to keep it in her mouth. Holding it in her mouth while she is chewing and spitting and grabbing at our arms can get very tiring. Today, Stella wouldn't stop screeching, and I mean SCREECHING unless the paci was in her mouth. Andy went and got one of my headbands, and came up with this little trick. (This is something I have thought of doing many times, however, never actually did for the fear it was too mean - Andy on the other hand, has no fears =) !)

thats hilarious! we just drove to utah and back within 24 hours and boy do i wish i had one of those contraptions!! he cried most of the way there and back!! although, now he has figured out how to cry, very loudly i might add, with the pacifier in his mouth!
Um, yeah. How do you report child abuse in South Carolina? Just kidding. Trust Andy to jimmy rig a quieting contraption!
