Who knew a cookie and milk out of a "non-sippy" cup could be so much fun! Rodney handed her a part of a cookie last night and she ran right over to a container that she had emptied (of course...behind her is what was in the container!) and sat in it to eat. It was like she does that all the time. I promise she doesn't! She thinks she is such a big girl when she gets to drink out of our cups without lids or straws. Tonight she even got to hold the cup by herself and take drinks. Because all of her cups are spill proof, she doesn't have to worry about dropping the cup or her new favorite... picking her cup up and violently shaking it to see if there is anything in it. We are really having a hard time introducing "big girl" cups as we are calling them.
She is growing up so quickly we can hardly believe it. She is talking so much now. Her favorite words right now are Elmo, Pop, Nana, Mamaw, home (every time we pull in the driveway), juice (thank goodness, instead of standing at the fridge and screaming), all gone, l-l-l-l-l (LilyMae, her favorite frog), and many others. Her vocabulary is finally blossoming. For a while she was perfectly happy with just yelling until we gave her what she wanted. Sooooo glad that time has passed, for the time being!
Loving getting back in a routine now that I'm back to work for a new school year, but terribly miss those sleeping in mornings and afternoon naps we had this summer!
Does she finally like milk? Or is drinking it with cookies the only way?
