So, I present to you, our winner. A cup with a straw = love. (now,
As I took Jack's picture, Ryan asked for his picture to be taken too. He either smiles and looks away or looks at the camera with no smile. Sigh.
Anna-Kate did her big sister role by saying, "I can follow directions Mommy, look Ryan, I'm smiling and looking, see?". Such a firstborn. They were eating homemade applesauce ("apple pie applesauce". It smells like apple pie and Anna-Kate started calling it that. Who am I to change the name when they scarf it down as if it were dessert?). She said, "oooh, I just love this and it is so sweet, I can see the brown sugar!" (There is none, it was cinnamon and apples that simmered all afternoon, that's it.) She then said, "it tastes just like cherries, right?" Umm, no.

yaah for the cup, lucky you, i will have to try that. so far she refuses it and the nuby nipple is so darn big
coming from your speech therapist friend....it's actually better that Jack just skipped the sippy cup altogether anyways :) sippies basically act like a next step bottle as far as how the child pulls the liquid out of it, so if you're really trying to get them to drink from a cup, they should just try to cup/straw sip and forego the sippy! (and yes, I realize a lot of the love for sippies is b/c it's easier for parents as far as mess goes, etc.)
so yay for jack making the better choice :)
