The ones that are a cup with no handles. They have a nipple like straw and the cup slide closes over the nipple/spout. She immediately got rid of the bottle with no fuss when I bought them. Tell Lucy and Justin that I hope they are both well soon.Sherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14870726091139785185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488101.post-56144918957959783092007-11-04T19:59:00.000-08:002007-11-04T19:59:00.000-08:00Boy, I'm so sorry to hear that Lucy and Justin are...Boy, I'm so sorry to hear that Lucy and Justin are sick! I hope they get to feeling better quickly.<BR/><BR/>I'm in the same boat with Petunia about using the sippy cup. I don't want to push too hard for her to get off the bottle, but I know it has to happen before long -- at least at daycare. The weird thing is that she'd rather drink out of a regular cup, but she can't hold it without spilling it. She also does well with a straw, but that's just for water and juice apparently. When it comes to her milk, she thinks it needs to come from her bottle for some reason.<BR/><BR/>Your little flamingo is too cute for words. Also, I LOVE your mom's ghost kids. How cute are they?!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15829876092950262085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488101.post-9547640852457612652007-11-02T14:04:00.000-07:002007-11-02T14:04:00.000-07:00That's too funny Kelly.

I see some terrible two's in our futures;) <BR/>No advice on the bottles with milk - we're in the same boat with 3-4 per day. We're in no hurry to break that though. Jackson doesn't let us feed him at the table anymore; he wants to do it all himself. If we even attempt to feed him, he'll spit it out, pick it up, and eat it from his own hands only. So the bottle is our only remaining opportunity for him to lay in our arms, look up at us, and be dependent on mommy and daddy for feeding. I like it for the bonding. I know at some point we'll transition away from it, but probably not for another few months. <BR/>I'm expecting him to revert a bit too when Shane comes home and Belly Baby joins the world. I'm sure he'll be 2 years old and nursing, in fact! Talk about regressing, but oh well!<BR/>So sorry Justin AND Lucy are sick. I hope they both have a quick recovery. I also hope, for your sake, your hubby isn't as big a baby as mine when he's sick!!<BR/>Lucy looked absolutely PRECIOUS, again, as a flamingo.

Being a toddler is all about testing boundaries and they are WAAAY more physical at this age because they can't always use their words. <BR/><BR/>You are doing the right thing by letting her know what is not acceptable and then showing the right behavior.<BR/><BR/>She looks adorable in her costume and I love the little fall outfit!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10656997842906713233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488101.post-83095928370422106992007-11-02T10:31:00.000-07:002007-11-02T10:31:00.000-07:00Yay - I love your big updates!

I love the pedicure experience - Addy would LOVE that. I'm not surprised Addy goes to them - I bet they have a natural comfort level that I grew to love in Vietnam. I don't have much advice for you on the milk. I will say that we give Addy milk in a sippee cup during the day but she does still like her bottle time during the night and sometimes naps. Many kids are still nursing for comfort at this age so I woudln't really worry about it. I figure Addy will drop them when she no longer needs them. I really only have issues with kids who carry bottles (full of juice - ew) everywhere they go all day! I figure a little comfort at sleep time is perfect!<BR/><BR/>I am so sad that she (and J) are sick AGAIN! That really blows :-(Stepping on Legoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00751088962848259310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488101.post-198941925602518372007-11-02T06:37:00.000-07:002007-11-02T06:37:00.000-07:00What a cute costume!

Annslee STILL at 3 insists I heat up her morning and evening milk and sometimes she wants in my lap to be held and fed her milk in her sippy cup. Yeah, way too old for it but I don't care. I missed the first 13 months of her life so if she needs this still then so be it. Just do what you feel is right and you will be : )<BR/><BR/>Love her costume..I hope she feels better soon.

It's our only snuggle time all day too. She had the same adversion to milk out of a cup - but also wouldn't take it out of a bottle since she didn't have any experience with one so what worked for us might not work for you. First we got those sippy cups by Nuby - they have them at Walmart - they have the silicon type sippy spouts so the texture is more like a bottle although the shape is like a sippy cup lid. Then we've also done two different things - Stephen used to put a little bit of pink milk mix - whatever that stuff is - in there. Just a dash. I wasn't crazy about it because of the sugar but it did work. It made the flavor exciting enough to drink it. Then we switched and started putting a thing of YoBaby - that whole milk yougart in the cup of milk. She isn't much of an eater so she needed the nutrients of the "smoothie" concoction. We'd mix one up the night before and stumble to the fridge in the morning when she woke up at 5:30 and got in bed with us. <BR/><BR/>Hope this helps! Cracks me up that she's turning to be such a headstrong little girl. Sounds very familiar.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
