Holds her own bottle

. . . But we're done with the bottle.  She doesn't need it, and she doesn't love it.  She is still toothless, so this is sort of a problem.  We're being creative with snacks she can "gum" in order to fulfill the missing bottles throughout the day.

She is sleeping well.  Sometimes we still get up once, and avoiding the bottle I've been coming up with different methods to console her.  So far it's working, and I'm wondering if all the mid-night bottles were unnecessary.  Oh well.  Usually she just needs to refocus, like she's had a scary dream (or something).  Typically it's a quick walk around the house, into the bathroom, or we'll make way to the refrigerator to get a drink of milk from her sippy.

Cow's milk.  Out of a cup!  It's crazy lunacy that we're at this stage, but freaking awesome.  Better yet, Bliss likes her milk cold.  It's so freaking easy.
 
She talks, she moves, she gets into things, she hates getting her diaper changed, she's smart, she escapes the living room ottoman trap, she loves bath time until it's time to bathe, she's cute, she's a busybody, she loves food, she loves unloading the dishwasher, she loves rubbing lotion in & eating it.
