One Of My Very Own

Okay, I'm a sucker....seriously. I love water bottles with straws versus an open lid. Since Oklahoma has such wonderful water I have no problem drinking water from the tap here. However, I only have one 32-oz insulated water cup that uses a straw. It's great for keeping around the house, but not for taking on the go as it doesn't fit into a drink holder.

I've been eyeing people's water bottles at the gym and in blogs and finally decided to get myself a new one. I chose to try the new Camelbak Better Bottle water bottle.

So far I love how it fits so easily in my hand as well as the drink holder in my car. I'm still getting a little used to having to bite the nozzle and then suck the water out, but I must've done okay because I drank two of them full yesterday. It holds 24 ounces.

My kids all think it's cool and I might just invest in one for each of them as the sports seasons go on and the weather warms up (okay looking waaaay into the future here). At $11 a bottle I wasn't about to go out and buy them each one right now. My son is a straw biter, so the girls think this would be great for him especially. We'll see...

Oh, did I mention the parts are all dishwasher safe? That's a selling point with me for sure! :)
