Ode to a sippy!


This post makes very clear how much my life has changed. *Warning* boring info ahead. I am so excited to have found the right kind of sippy cup. BFB (before baby) my shopping thrills came from 50% off sales at Anthropoligie, free gifts at Sephora and finding my size in a cute pair of shoes at Marshalls. While I still love a good deal, solving the sippy cup delima is what excites me these days:)

I have been trying to get Lila to start drinking water and juice for about a month now. I didn't want to just use her bottle b/c I didn't want her to always expect yummy juice in them and reject milk. I bought several different kinds of cups that were highly recomended and all this girl would do with them is chew. I couldn't get her to understand to suck? How do you explain that to a baby? I even bought the kind witht the soft spout and they leaked everywhere. I watch several other babies her age using sippy cups and wonder "How did you teach them that"? The mystery has been solved today. NUK the brand by Gerber has a learner cup. It has a soft top that doesn't leak! She is so proud of herself and I am so proud of the find:)

I had the exact same problem with Charlie and have already started dreading going through it again with Emerson! Glad to know this one worked for you! I will keep my eye out for it! Hope y'all are doing well!
