CJ finally figured out how to get his thumb in his mouth and keep it there (for the most part). For about a month, you could tell by watching him he was trying to figure it out. He has almost stopped stabbing himself in the eye with his thumb, and this weekend he started to figure out how to get his thumb in his mouth, keep it there, and tuck the other four fingers into a fist so they didn't go up his nose and in his eyes. When you think about all that goes into thumb sucking, it really is a lot to coordinate. The only time it is bad is when he is going to sleep. He is a baby who needs to suck to go to sleep, so when is is falling asleep, we give him his pacifier. But now when he is almost asleep, he tries to stick his thumb in his mouth with his nook, and it is just a disaster. It usually ends in frustrated crying and flying nooks. He'll get it all figured out eventually though.
