Snuggle up to your....cactus?

I know I have mentioned before that after months and months of working at it, we finally got Gracie addicted to a pacifier...just in time for our trip to Hawaii last October. I am sure that the people sitting on the plane around us were also singing the praises of that Binky. It may sound crazy that we would encourage a binky, but our experience has shown that it is nice for the baby to have some way to sooth themselves and also it is much easier to take away a binky than a thumb! Well, not long after Gracie became attached to our dear friend the Binky...she got a cold...had a running/stuffy nose...couldn't breath with the pacifier in and quickly gave it up....Darn it! Lucky for us we were given this darling (?) little cactus toy from our friends, the Pages, after they took a trip to Arizona a few years ago. Gracie doesn't care that it used to be Kate's. All she knows is that she loves to snuggle up to this cactus when she is tired or sad. Who doesn't love a good cactus anyway?
You like Gracie's skater hair? There are a lot of bald men out there that would kill for that comb-over!
Can you tell she is teething? Her tongue is out...ALL OF THE TIME!
