The Temper Tantrum of the Year goes to......


Sophia!! (big surprise, right!)


One of the girls main comfort items is their "BaBa" (their bottles). We should have taken their bottles away over a year ago but, sometimes it was the only item that would make them happy and when they are happy Momma is happy!


Well, we decided this week that we would take the bottles away except for night time and naps (they get water and a little juice). The new change really did not bother Ella because she is just happy to have a drink but, Sophia threw a temper tantrum every time I handed her a cup. I actually got a kick out of it for the first three hours...after the third hour she was off to her room!


All in all, they have done really well throughout the process...The bottle fairy is coming the first week of August to whisk the bottles off for good! Say a prayer for us that week!

Poor Sophia. She looks so very sad. Is the bottle fairy bringing anything super special in return for the bottles?

I am not sure yet, I probably should come up with something good!

We're still working on the concept of the sippy cup. It's NOT just a chew toy!!!
