I'm doing some catch up while we're still settling in! (And very much enjoying catching up on you guys.) =) I was just wondering why your pediatrician feels strongly about the transition from bottle to sippy cup? (I'm assuming he/she feels strongly about doing it when they turn one?) Just curious! Bravo and sticking to it and making it through. =) I know you posted this a while ago … I’m doing some catch up while we’re still settling in!

By the way...had the same sippy cup issues except I didn't really push for Micah to go off the bottle totally till he turned 2. The only good thing about waiting that long is that by then, I could verbally get him ready for what was about to come/he was old enough to understand and so it came as now surprise when we stopped and he was fine with the change. I think you're smart to start earlier though cause getting them off the bottle really makes life a lot easier in many ways!:) They just do not get as dependent on the sippy I've found anyways!

I always think Tommy is doing fine until I start talking to a hyper-parent with a child the same age, and then I start worrying that he doesn't know his colors and doesn't sing and has regressed to using his hands instead of his fork to eat! =) This is a sane reminder, and I'm interested in checking out those books you mentioned whenever I next have free time to read!
