It’s hard to believe that McCanless completely dropped her bottle and refused anything but her sippy cup at 10 months, but looking back, I realized that I started giving her a sippy cup to “play” with pretty early. So, today McCanless and I picked out a brand new pink and purple sippy cup with handles just for Mary Clare. (guess who chose those colors?)<\/p>\n
Well, that and the fact that Mary Clare now goes completely nuts when she sees a sippy cup because a certain big sister<\/em> was giving her sips of juice from her<\/em> sippy cup without telling mommy. I was beginning to wonder why she would kick and cry and pitch fits as I fixed cups of juice for McCanless… I’m only hoping that Mary Clare will learn to like the watered down version of apple juice after tasting the real thing! We’ll see!<\/p>\n<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
\nHere was her first attempt! No problems with drinking out of the spout…thanks to previous secret<\/em> practice sessions with big sister. She just couldn’t figure out how to keep the juice flowing. (holding the cup up)<\/div>\n<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
When all else fails…<\/div>\n
