Old Faithful

We have had a lot of trouble keeping track of pacifiers with Aidan. Reese was a thumbsucker so we never had to keep track of anything when we went out. If she got upset, she just stuck her thumb in her mouth and we continued on. We decided to enforce a pacifier with Aidan as a baby because Reese was (and still is) sucking her thumb and although we try to point it out to her when she does it, it is a hard habit to break. Thankfully, Aidan is pretty laid back and doesn't get upset or depend heavily upon his pacie, but it seems that I never have one when I need it. That is except for old faithful, a pink pacifier that came in a package of more appropriately "boy" colored pacies. Everybody gives me a hard time for keeping that one on hand, but it seems like all of the blue and green ones go missing, while the pink one cannot be lost!
