The beginning of the end (I hope)

Okay, we're doing it. We're trying to get rid of Buddy. I don't really want to get rid of him... just stop Hyrum from sucking on the nose. So... my plan was to sew his nose down. This way he could still play with him, but can't suck on the nose. It's working so far. Although, he's pretty upset.

These are a few of the things we've heard today. "I can't do it" (I'm guessing you can't get his nose away from his stomach). "I want it off" "Other Buddy" (asking for another Buddy). He's been saying that the Buddy is dirty -hoping for a clean one, and I'm sure hoping for one that doesn't have his nose sewn.

I hope this transition goes smoothly, and quickly. Next up? Toilet training!
