Yep Erin she uses sippies (or regular cups at school don't ask me how they deal with 12 babies using cups HE HE HE) for all fluids. The sippy I got for night time is kind of more like a bottle but still is not a bottle and last night she didn't even really want it. She was so tired out - the toddler room tires her out! Most babies do use bottles or boobs longer but at 12 months they no longer need formula and certainly don't need it out of a bottle, according to the pediatric academy whatever - doctors and I guess I trust those peeps - haven't done me wrong with my babes yet. They also say that they get enough food all day long to sustain 12 hours and really don't even need a night time drink of anything....especially if you eat closer to bed time like we do. So I really don't have any tips except for just taking one bottle away at a time....first day time ones, then morning one and then night time. She just got so busy that bottles took up too much time to sit there and drink! HA! She transitions to things super easy so she just did it!
Here is a pic just for you Erin:
