With Colin we haven't had many things come to us easily. I am not sure if it is because we are first time parents or if he is just stubborn but I always feel like things have been difficult with him.
Well, I think I won the sippy cup war! Colin has not had a bottle in two days! Not eve one before bed. Tuesday night he passed out early and so I changed him into his PJs and put him to bed expecting a middle of the night yell or two. Not a peep out of him. So last night I choose to drop the bedtime bottle and read a book instead. He still slept though the night!
He has been devouring his whole milk and doesn't miss his formula. I think he would drink it 24/7 if I let him.
So now I plan on cleaning out the cabinet and putting away all the bottles. I am so glad to not have to wash another one of those stupid straws that come with the Dr. Brown's bottles. Oh, and traveling without having to wash bottles - it was a dream to me but now a reality.
Adios, bottles!
(and because I posted this he will cry and cry and cry tonight until I give him a bottle. B/c for some reason that is just what happens to me.)
Big boy Colin! I remember that feeling of relief when we no longer had to fool with bottles - it's so nice!
