The Thumb

We are trying to encourage Lauren to stop sucking her thumb and have offered (read: bribe) to take her to the toy store and let her pick out any toy -- if she gives it up.

Today at nap I reminded her that she is trying to quit. 
(do they have a N*icorette version for this sort of thing?) 

As I am walking out she says, "Umm, can you close the door all the way so you can't see me sucking my thumb?"

Hmmm.  Perhaps I should let her peruse a few toy catalogues.

Oh, so cute. I've done the bribe thing (for pooping in diaper instead of on the potty). No shame in that. I have a thumb-sucker, too, but I'm not going to even attempt to break her of that. Luckily it's down to only at bedtime so I guess I can live with it. I'll be really jealous if you get her broken!
