Sippy Cup

For the last week we've been introducing McKaila to a sippy cup. At first she didn't want anything to do with it, but little by little she's getting more comfortable with it. She is now bringing it to her mouth, but she still hasn't gotten the idea that she has to tip it up a little bit to actually get something out of it. She will sit on the floor in the living room for a good hour and bring the sippy cup back and forth from her mouth to the floor. It's so cute.
A couple weeks ago, we started giving her 3 meals a day. So now she's been eating a whole container of 2nd foods (Gerber) 3 times a day. We've been able to tell the difference now that she's eating breakfast because now she goes about 4-5 hours in between bottle feedings. She has really loved the food. As soon as she sees the container she freaks out because she knows what it is. She does the same thing for her bottles. She is one crazy kid, but so cute.

Lately, Courtney and I have been helping McKaila support herself by grabbing onto something when she stands. She does a great job standing up in her crib. She's still a little wobbly supporting herself on the couch, but she's very intrested in doing it.
Thank you Grandma Kuipers for Dora pj's, I love them! Love, McKaila
