The Case of the Disappearing Paci

Kevin and I put Jackson down every night with a pacifier nearby for those 3 am wake up calls where he's in between sleep cycles and just needs to be soothed. After the bath he was upset and we gave him the paci while we were getting him dressed in his pjs, and then I nursed him. But before I put him down I realized I couldn't find the paci. So, picture the scene: Jennie holding a 17 lb sound asleep Jackson, Kevin on his hands and knees searching every inch of the dark nursery for about 45 minutes using the monitor as a flashlight, emptying the trash, rummaging through drawers - and nothing. Luckily we found a spare, and Jackson slept soundly for 9 hours. This morning I woke up my happy son and changed him out of his jammies, only to find...a paci in his armpit! Poor kid must have been sacked to sleep through the night with that thing in his clothes:)

That is a great story. Before I got to the end, I was thinking maybe Bodhi ate it :) Oh, not that's a Coty thing, not Bodhi! Ha ha.

So, I'm a little late to comment on this post, but I did finally find the site to catch up on how you are all doing. I too was thinking Bodhi was the paci thief and loved the visual of Kevin searching in the dark with the monitor in hand.

Hope all is great - adorable little boy you have with a wonderful head of hair (still!).
