Boring...and sippy cups

Lily said 'boring' for the first time yesterday...as in a sentence. 'It's boring outside, there's nothing to do' (in relation to the square in front of our building where we take the kids to ride their bikes or hang out sometimes). I know she got it from Sophie, the just-turned-seven year old next door. Sort of made me sad...like a tiny chip whittled away from her innocence and joy of life. And impending doom - is this the beginning of 'I'm bored', 'that's boring', 'you're boring'??

I packed away Charlotte's sippy cups yesterday (you can see it was a big day). She can drink out of a cup and has done off and on for a while. So she can have her water, milk and apple juice/water drinks from cups from now on. Growing up, these babies.
