Jun. 25, 2007 - The Toddler Coffee Cup

Posted in Mothering in Grace

          I have been on a search to find a sippy cup for my 2 yod to use in the back of the car when we are on the road for errands or for longer trips.  He drinks with a normal cup at home and sippy cup in his bed at night.  Well, my search ended this weekend.  Target had "Playtex Insulated & Spill-Proof Cup, Coolster Tumbler" and they had it in Drew's assigned family color, green.  He loves it.   Take a look at cool this cup is.

This purchase hasn't been without problems though.  First of all, I have discovered that if anyone touches this cup it sends Drew into major fits.    That isn't too surprising considering his age.  But the most shocking problem is what Drew calls HIS cup.  Drew has affectionate named this his "coffee cup".   I was a bit taken back by his name for it.  The more I looked at it though the more I noticed that it does, in fact, look like one of those Starbuck's coffee cups you can purchase for home use.  Underdog and I have several of them at home.  I think this is definately a revelation of just how addicted to coffee his parent's really are.
