Sadie, Dozer or Bentley's Bowl?

Bentley has a fun new hiding place.  She loves to crawl up onto the dog bowls and just sit there like she is sitting on her throne.  And, no it makes no difference if there is actually water or food in their bowls ;)

Bentley has also been getting a little too dependent on her pacifier lately.  She would hide it beside her in her high chair and suck and bit, then eat a bit, then suck a bit and then tuck it away as I was going to take it from her.  She also would go the counter and reach as far as she could and scream "pat pat" for it as soon as she was through eating.  I made the executive decision last Friday to take this from her except for nap time and bed time.  Let me say, Friday was NOT fun.  She fussed quite a bit and was very needy, but I must say after that, we have been fortunate.  She is coming to grips with the fact that she and "pat pat's" relationship is strictly to exist in her bed.  It was not as bad as I thought, but let me remind myself we still have a ways to go.  We are working toward breaking it altogether, but we are taking baby steps. 

We are also getting tubes put in and adenoids removed on December 4th.  I fondly remember how much fun the adenoid piece was with Riley.  I hope this is one of those situations where girls handle it differently.
