"Let's give it the ole mouth test."
"Is this something I like?"
"Let's roll it around the tongue a bit, spit it out and see."
"Yeah. I like it. I like this squishy thing."
"OK. Let's squeeze it really hard and see if I still like it then."
"Yep. Still tastes sweet."
"I'd like some more, please."
"Thank you!"

So was he.

"Hey look, mama's taking pictures. Quick! Let's do something cute."
"Come on, guys, I'm eating here."
Who can blame them? I can't resist those oh-so-kissable fuzzy blonde feathers either.

(It should be noted that when the apricot had finally disintegrate, HP wailed and wailed while a retrieved another piece from the kitchen. As long as it's not pureed and delivered on the end of a spoon, he's into eating.)
It looks like his eating is going to be a messy one all the time...Good luck with the extra laundry...But I am sure its going to be lots of fun.
ReplyDeleteOMG. How cute is that? I think in modern mama terms you are encouraging "baby led feeding". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVBdMDl4RXo
ReplyDeleteThese kids are so precious and huggable. I love how you take the time to capture these moments in your mama life. L and C doing book reports!! Please tell them Nana loves them and misses them.
Aw, H is simply adorable...as are the big two, of course ;) And I think he's a smarty for not enjoying the spoon-feeding. It took me a kid, but the BLS worked like magic for the others!
