I’m trying to get better at posting regularly on here again, so I thought I’d make a quick post to say that Andrea figured out an awesome new skill this weekend. She can now drink out of a straw!

For the most part, Andrea has never really taken to bottles (even after I bought every type under the sun). And we’ve had mixed success with sippy cups (she mostly likes to chew on the ends, which is messy). So I started working on getting her drink from a straw, and after drizzling a little water from straws on occassion, she all of a sudden figured out how to drink from them on her own over the past couple of days. She loves it! We marked the occassion by buying her a Baby Einstein sippy cup with a straw today, which she seems to like. I will try take a picture or some video and post it here soon. It’s very funny to see, since she’s so little, but she does a great job!
