It also breaks books down into age appropriate groups. <br /><br />Can I come to drawing class sometime? Sounds awesome!Mindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11986441098282544077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512686951576132673.post-12227076472437892202010-04-30T09:25:12.753-05:002010-04-30T09:25:12.753-05:00Oh we love those books!

She still refused milk in it but would take juice and water.Mark & Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09149997009078790991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512686951576132673.post-55735214138845641002010-04-29T09:15:24.019-05:002010-04-29T09:15:24.019-05:00Wonderful & informative post!

Couldn't agree more about cable AND arriving armed at the library with a list in hand ~ its a life and sanity saver! :)<br /><br />Jude would love the Little Engine That Could if he likes Little Toot and there are more books in the Cord. series also ~ at least one in hardback and others for special holidays (like Halloween/Christmas, etc.) He steals my heart too!<br /><br />Glad all is well ~ I'm so impressed with your comprehensive links here! Thank u!<br /><br />As to the solids ~ they will come. Just keep putting out puffs, cheerios and the like in front of her during meals and eventually she will sample them! As to the sippy cup dilemna....hmmmm....have u tried a cup with straw attached? I know its a bit more clumsy and messy, but it more closely mirrors a bottle!<br /><br />Thinking of you!!

We started giving Markus a sippy with juice/water when he was 12 months, but it was almost just a fun toy/novelty. When he was 15 months, we started giving him one of his milk servings per day only in a sippy. He wasn't keen, but he got enough calcium and fluids from other sources, so we could afford to let him skip one instead of giving in and giving him the bottle. Also, we would hold and rock him (like giving a bottle), so he still got his cuddle time. We gradually replaced each bottle feeding with milk or juice/water from a cup. Concur on letting her have the bottle a little longer--we didn't fully wean M until he was about 18 months. Also, concur on the sippies with the really soft spouts--he liked those better in the beginning. Thanks for the library advice!gruberjennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04195847394445247891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512686951576132673.post-63696436377007869942010-04-28T19:41:00.764-05:002010-04-28T19:41:00.764-05:00love the book ideas!

Wait until the weather gets good and hot and she and the kids are sweaty..offer her a little cool juice in a sippy,like the big kids..it works. get the little GERBERS with the really soft spouts. Pics are great.<br />xoxo,Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08847425374212175113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512686951576132673.post-83745030264679590872010-04-28T17:12:44.460-05:002010-04-28T17:12:44.460-05:00Since we don't have cable, I let my son watch ...Since we don't have cable, I let my son watch educational DVD's or Veggietales DVD's.
