Getting 14 Month off the Bottle

Hi, I was wondering if anyone out there has advice about how to get my 14 month old off the bottle. She will drink out of a sippy cup (water and juice only) but she will not drink her milk unless it is in a bottle. I've tried giving it to her in a sippy cup (cold and warm). She takes a big "sip", wrinkles her face and hands it back to me. Any information is helpful. Thanks!

My 13 Month Old Is Picky, picky...picky!

My 13 month old little guy is ALL boy, except for his eating habits. Ever since he's realized he can eat what mommy is eating (to a point), that is all he wants. But then when I sit him down in his high chair, he sometimes puts the food in his mouth, then spits it out. He will drink his bottles like they are going out of style as many times as he can during the day and will throw tiny fits unless he doesn't have his bottle (whole milk of course), or get whiney until we give them to him. He will eat some foods (cheerios, pastas of every...
