Those with a toddler AND infant - how do you store the sippy cups and bottles?
We had a bottle drying rack for DD#1 and when she moved on to sippys we just kept using it. Now that I'll be using bottles soon, where did you keep everything?
Make room for the sippys in the cabinets and start reusing the drying rack?
Get an additional drying rack?
What other options?
I feel like these cups and bottles are going to take over the kitchen!
TIA!

I got rid of my bottle drying rack b/c I thought it was a PIA but I use the drop-ins so mine are easy to just throw in the dishwasher.
I have a kitchen towel I keep on my counter with the bottles and sippy cups. I only have 2 sippy cups for TJ and while I used 10 bottles for him, I only use 4 bottles now for Derek. I couldnt stand having so many bottles and sippy cups all over the place.

Elizabeth has like 12 sippys  and so far the new baby has 9 bottles. Maybe I'll start getting rid of some sippys!
Thanks!

I JUST asked DH the same question this morning! I put the sippys in the dishwasher anyway so I use it more for storage than drying so I may try to clear out a drawer for all the sippies and their parts! Either that or I might get a regular size dish drying rack so all of the stuff can fit.

I got rid of most of the sippy cups. I kept like 2, plus he has his own regular cups, so maybe 5 total.
I threw away the drying rack. I let them dry on a towel on the counter. I only bought 6 bottles this time. Lance had like 20.
I made one whole cabinet for all their plates/bottles/cups. Another for all their food and snacks.

Well she uses 4 a day and when she was in daycare FT it was hard to keep up with cleaning them, so I just kept buying more.

Us too. Between the bowls and lids, snack cups, straw sippys, I call the cabinet "Munchkin Land" We need another cabinet for all of the bottles, nipples, and Dr. Brown accessories. Basically, I need a bigger kitchen.

I store the sippys and bottles in the cabinet with the glasses. I have also gotten rid of sippys and bottles as they get older and gross.
