Milk for 2 year olds?

DD is (just) 2, and still has a sippy cup of milk first thing in the morning (usually enough left to do her cereal, but not always) and another after her bath last thing (before teeth). I don't measure, but I'm guessing about 8 oz in the cup.
Is this right, for a 2 year old, or should she have less now? She seems very keen at the moment! She will have a bit of cheese and/or a yoghurt most days - oh, and eats well at mealtimes.

if she's happy to drink then i'd let her carry one

Mine had 1/2 pint morning and night 'til the ages of 4&5 when they cut down on their own. If it doesn't affect appetite, not a problem IMO.
