For awhile there, I thought that our kids were all hip and cool with their nalgene sippy cups. UNTIL….it was announced that the plastics used to make these cups and so many other cups, baby bottles, etc. are the worst kind of plastic for leaching the chemical BPA, (a synthetic sex hormone that mimics estrogen) which can cause fertility problems, cancer, etc.
95% of all baby bottles and cups on the market are made with BPA, at levels which can disrupt their development.
If you want to read about it, this is a good article.
Anyway, I went ahead and ordered some of these.
(this is not my kid)**
I’m excited to get them in the mail soon! And let’s hope they come out with some more alternatives for parents needing alternatives. argh.
A few other little randoms:
The doll I made for Hosanna May for Christmas.
Her name is Sylvia, and she’s already looking a little ratty…hair especially. 
This is the daffodil plant my momma bought me as an attempt to help me rise out of my pit of winter blues-dom. It helped for sure. The flowers are gone now, but there will be more (I hope). I love flowers.
Hosanna’s newest favourite thing to do is play dress up with all the hats, scarves and mitts. She’s a peach. I like her.
