Walking and sippy cup questions

So, I worked in a dental office and knew once we switched to sippys I would either want a straw or a regular cup just to keep ortho in mind. However she has only had a weight straw sippy and doesnt know how to tip back a regular cup. Any tips??

I know babies develop at their own rate but i’m curious. My girl can take like 10 steps when we stand her up or when she pulls up on furniture but hasnt stood up from floor on her own yet. How can I encourage this? I think she is close as she will now go up on one knee when sitting and pull the other leg up but thats it. Pic to show what i mean
