I Can Do It Myself!

We bought Ella a sippy cup with handles and a nipple (well I guess it's not really a sippy cup then!) a few months ago, but she wasn't having it.  I think partially (or mostly) because it has a 'no drip' nipple so she probably has to suck really hard to get the milk out.  Anyway, the girls in my infant group were talking about starting sippy cups so I thought I'd try again today, and look what happened...

Ok granted there was a continuous stream down the side of her face, but she did it!  She's well on her way to holding a beer bottle just like daddy (I kid, I kid). ;)

And this is what happens when you leave a baby on the floor next to your wrap shirt for about 2.1 seconds.
