Noah especially is overly attached to his sippy cup. He often wants it with him in bed. Filled with water. Ice water. Sometimes with a refill at 3 AM.
So Paige came up with a plan. The sippy fairy was going to visit, and take all the sippies away to other baby boys and girls who needed them. This is, according to legend, what happens when little boys turn 3-1/2. Last night we boxed up all the sippies and left them on the back porch (we didn't want her coming in the house.)

We also left a note for the sippy fairy, and Ella drew her a picture. That would be the fairy at the top, Ella in the middle carrying a sippy, and Banjo at the bottom.
This morning, an amazing thing had happened! The sippies were gone, and a stack of cups was there in their place (apparently the sippy fairy shops at Ikea.) And a little trail of glittery pink footprints across our porch!
The plan seems to have worked, since there have been no protests yet about the lack of spill proof cups in the house, and they all enjoyed their cups at breakfast this morning.
