Bonnie Jean Aqua Swirl Dress c/o My Baby Clothes Boutique

Lil' J goes through sippy cups like no other child I know. We always lose them and I can never seem to relocate them. Since she's so thrilled to be drinking out of a straw I got her one of those cool cups that has the straw the folds down, and it's spill proof. ... Well, her teacher told me she wasn't drinking much for a few days and when I got home I tried to drink out of her cup and couldn't get anything out!

I took apart the whole cup and straw but I couldn't get it to work again. I think it being spill-proof ended up making it too good. So good that you can't even drink out of it.

Luckily, she had another cup at school so she didn't die of thirst or anything, but I still felt bad.

Yesterday I got her some more cups with straws. These can and do spill out of the side of the straw, but she doesn't try to tip it over, and I usually just keep water in her cup anyway. She loves them so much she walked around with it all day yesterday, even taking it outside with us.

It's so weird seeing her do such "big girl" things. I call her a baby but she's obviously growing up.

Speaking of growing up. This dress she's wearing from My Baby Clothes Boutique is one she's going to have to grow in to. It caught my eye when I saw it in their shop but the smallest size was 2T. I figured she can wear it next summer, and with a little touch of mom's handy work she could wear it now. I just tied the back with some extra ribbon. It's still a tad long, but she can walk in it without tripping.

My grab button malfunctioned last week. So sorry. It should be working this time.
