Disappearing Sippy Cups

I don't know what it is, but it would seem that sippy cups are just about as difficult to keep up with as socks.

Socks disappear every time I turn around at my house. I almost never can find a decent match for anyone, myself included.

For the longest, I was certain that the dryer was somehow eating them.

Now I have a knew problem. Sippy cups are disappearing faster than I can gather them up after a meal!

I know that Kian likes to carry his around like a favorite toy, and has a tendency to hide his in the event that someone might try and borrow it.

But lately, my sippy cup supply has been coming up short and it's not just Kian's cup that is missing!

I don't know if the babies are sneaking them upstairs or playing hide-n-seek with them or what.

Today, I found three cups upstairs, stashed under the owner's respective beds.

Kian's green cup has since resurfaced in the fireplace, of all places!

I suppose I need to check the train table drawers, the pocket sewn into the side of the recliner, and maybe in the play-house stove.

The babies also are convinced that cups belong in the cabinet next to the refrigerator.

They have some merit in that idea, as the adult cups are kept in the cabinet above that very same cabinet.

It would help if that cabinet were refrigerated, though. And maybe if that cabinet wasn't as deep and difficult to see into things would be easier to find!

Well, I'm off on a treasure hunt. I only know the whereabouts of three of the 9 cups that I keep in circulation and I have a lot of work to do!
