Winston and his new sippy cup (non-leak)
Winston bid a fond if a bit cranky farewell to the bottle last week...to be fair, he was only cranky for about 2 days, then moved on like he'd been sippy cupping forever. Amazing.
This morning, I dropped off diapers at his daycare only to find that the sippy cups we've been using for the past year are "leaking all over...you need to buy new ones."
I continue to be amazed by how much stuff goes along with having kids. We had about 10 different bottles (all now cleaned and put away, thank you very much); we have 6 different sippy cups (although now we have to throw 4 of those away and buy news ones); 5 huge plastic tubs of clothes that Winston has outgrown; don't get me started on the baby accessories that are piling up in our garage.
And yet...I don't want to throw any of it away. I start to clean out the closet, and then I come across a size one diaper (not used, thank goodness) that he used to swim in (now he is in Size 5!). Then I remember that his legs were so skinny that the diapers weren't snug enough, so every so often the pee would just roll on through to whomever the lucky baby holder was at that time. Mo and Dave seemed to be particularly vulnerable to the leaky diapers if I recall.
Ok, so I kept the size one diaper. And the bottles. And the clothes. But I am recycling those leaky sippy cups. For real.
