No more bottles!

For weeks now I've been sending Miley to daycare with 2 cups and a bottle. I sent the bottle because some days she does well with the cup and others not so much. Well today marks the day when she gets no more bottles. She's being doing so well with the cup so good buy plastic baby bottle, hello big girl cup. The next bottle she'll drink from will be a bottle of root beer (of coarse not for a few years). Next step (excuse the pun) is walking. As you can see from the video below, she can really move it with some assistance.

I'll end the suspense about Miley's party. It will be......PIG themed! I've already got some cute stuff so I'm now looking forward to it and less dreading it. The party is set for October 25 since her birthday is a Monday and the weekend before that we'll be in Nebraska. I think Stephen and I will take her actual birthday off and do something fun. Again more for us than for her, I just don't feel right about sending her to daycare on her birthday.

In other news, Miley continues to say her new favorite words: baby, dada, and maaaamaaaaa. Yesterday when I picked her up for daycare, she WAVED bye-bye to Tucker (the boy that kissed her). I was shocked, "She can wave bye?" Ms. Jenni says "Yeah, she just started waving when someone leaves." So she is learning more and more and getting so big. I wonder what other kinds of things she does when we're not around, calculus perhaps? At home she rarely plays on her own, she just wants me to hold her all the time. It can get frustrating but I just think of it like this: she doesn't get held at daycare and she only wants me to hold her therefore she must miss me. And with that reasoning I continue the bad habit of picking her up when she cries at my feet. Must try to break that soon or not ;)
