Kate, the Sippy Cup, and Zack

Anyone who has had the pleasure of recently feeding Kate knows that she won't hold her own bottle and that she would rather sit up and drink than be held and rocked (except at night when she's sleepy). She so badly wants to be a big girl like her sister but she just doesn't know how. I had tried a traditional sippy cup a few weeks ago and she just chewed on it and threw it down, repeatedly. So yesterday I bought her one with a straw (Maddy loved these) and Kate immediately picked it up and started drinking. As Maddy said "good job Kate, you did it, you're a big girl now."


Last night we noticed that Zack hangs around Kate's high chair more than before. We realized this is because Kate throws (or drops) cereal treats on the floor to him. Just like someone else we knew about three years ago.....


Guess you really can't teach a dog or a baby new tricks....
