Sippy Cup

Well, she's not a pro yet...

BUT she is finally wanting to drink from her cup!

She reaches for it when I have it in my hand, pulls it to her and puts it in her mouth.

She tries super hard, but in the process makes a mess.
I'm thinking we need a video of this :)

Bright Idea

Who's Bright Idea was it to start Madilynn on a
"training cup" at barely 5 months?!

Ok, I confess it was ME!

I started her with 2 1/2 oz and that went down easy peasy!
Well, I decided why not dump the rest of her bottle into the training cup....BAD IDEA!
She saw the bottle and when I gave her the cup,
she fussed, squirmed, drank some,
spit out, cried, drank some more and repeated!
She had more on her bib than in her tummy...
oh what a fiasco!!

Needless to say, I put it back into her bottle, finished feeding her,
cleaned her up (and me too!) and put her in her jumper!

From then on she was full of

SMILES!

Don't worry, we will try again tomorrow...
Yes, I am brave! heheheh.
