    Archer never cared for the sippy cup. He went straight from the bottle (heh) to the glass. He took swigs from my water and ONLY my water and until last night drank only out of a tall clear glass, sippy cups be damned.

     

    I gave up on the sippy cup thing months ago after collecting dozens of them, thinking eventually one might catch his eye.

     

    "Maybe a superman sippy cup would do the trick?"

     

    "Aha! An insect sippy cup! Perfect!"
