Sippy Cups

Our house inspection went well...it's in good shape for an older house. All good news!

Mom called today and wanted to come pick up Elizabeth to spend some time with her and dad. It turned out to be great timing because I actually need to go with Travis to Danbury tomorrow. So mom and dad drove down this afternoon and got to stop by our potential new house and got to take a little tour. They stayed for about an hour and then headed back with my little angel. I kinda miss her already!

Around 5 this afternoon, Travis, Stephen (Travis's brother), and I headed up to the greenhouse to fill pots and plant more Jatropha and Chinese Tallow trees. It took us 3 hours to plant roughly 750 plants...not too bad and relieved that it's done!!

Elizabeth's doctor said that she should be drinking out of a sippy cup all of the time now. (A bottle at bed time is ok, though.) I have been trying for over a week to get her to drink out of the stupid thing and two hours with mom and dad and she drank the whole thing! A week!!! And it took her two hours!! This is not fair!! Oh, well, at least she's drinking out of it. Hopefully, she'll keep it up! I have such a big girl!

A sippy cup already? That sounds early to me but then again we started with 16 & 24 month olds!

Congrats on the house !!!

Why do Dr.'s always want to hurry things along..........She will only be a baby for a brief time minute.
