Switching to sippy cups Night 1

I am trying to start weaning the boys, which is proving to be much more difficult with my two little boys than it was Abigail. So for now I'm still nursing in the morning and have started nursing between 4/5pm and then sippy cups at bedtime. Last night the boys cried for maybe 5 minutes and then fell asleep. It was really good that we had to put Abigail straight to bed afterward or I too may have cried with them for the five minutes...mind you I'm all about letting them cry when they don't need me or even in the middle of the night, but it was SO hard to walk out of their room and have them cry cause they didn't get their mommy time and what they are used to. But they then slept until Ryan woke up at 6:20 and Justin shortly there after. I can't tell you how happy they were to nurse in the morning!! Good job boys!! My hope is that once they are used to just getting the sippy at night I can then eliminate the evening nurse and then we'll be down to once a day?!?!?

One a side note, they still sleep with their bums up in the air and Abigail did too but I don't remember when she stopped so I'm trying to keep note of it with the boys, b/c it is just so cute....
