If you know me, you know how strict I am when it comes to giving up the bottle or sippy cup. Nothing irritates me more than seeing a big kid with a bottle or pacifier.
In my house the kids give up the bottle at 1 year old. Yes it can be hard, but I firmly believe that it is easier younger. At 2 years old, they give up the sippy and start drinking exclusively out of a big cup. I do this because I have found it easier to potty train when they arent carrying around a cup all day.
Son #2 turned 2 in April. Did I take the sippy cup away? No. We moved in April and I felt that with all the craziness I didnt want to traumitize him any more. Well I am happy to say that we are officially a sippy cup free home! My last baby has finally become a full blown big boy! No sippy cup during the day and no sippy cup at night! Other than asking " Wheres my drink?" one time, he hasnt even been upset. Along with giving up the sippy we have officially been potty training. Yesterday morning we had 2 accidents, but none in the afternoon and none this morning.
So I officially have a home with no babies and im suprisingly okay with that! While Im sad that my kids are growing up at a speed faster than I am okay with, I know I dont want any more babies.
So say goodbye to baby Kaeleb and say hello to Big Boy Kaeleb!
