He asked for and cried about his missing soothers for about an hour or so (it was really hard not to give in when he cried!!!), but then got up and had breakfast and started on the day. He asked for his soother again after swimming at the Aylmer pool and again that night, when he was going to bed and was having is books read to him. This lasted for quite a while (him asking for his soother), but eventually held all his stuffed animals (the new stuffies, the big mammoth, the cow and his two elephant stuffed animals) and fell asleep.

This is a picture of Theo's stuffed animals - all necessary to fall asleep! :)

Here is Theo - finally asleep without a soother in his mouth! YAY!
Yesterday was better. But it also helped that the minute he got up he got to hunt for Easter eggs. He had great fun and found lots of chocolate eggs. The day was quite a success. We had lots of fun! We biked around, visited Terry and Doug, and worked in the garden (Theo helped lots with helping me sweep stone dust across Loups dog area and by spraying the snow pile in the vegetable garden area). Theo ended up falling asleep around 6 pm and slept all night!!!! We had expected him to wake up some time between 10 pm and 1 am and tell us that he was hungry (we had food ready just in case that could be heated up quickly), but that never happened. He did wake up around 7 am today, had a bit of water to drink and went right back to sleep! Until about 9 am today. We nearly went into shock and then back to sleep ourselves - gratefully! :)
Overall, it was a great past couple of days! I'm adding a few more pic from this weekend here!

On the slide at one of the parks we go to!

In his new stroller/trailer.

The sand castle we built.

Loup at the park with us - he's 12 years old now! I can't believe how fast time went by!!!

Theo dumping leaves on Daddy!

Happy Theo - covered in leaves himself!
