...SHE MAKES A MESS!!!
At dinner the other night, Scott and I figured we'd give Bailey a shot at feeding herself. She loves playing with her spoons, and she's started to get frustrated with me spoon-feeding her and only wants to eat finger foods that she can pick up herself. So we figured, why not? After she finished her dinner we gave her a spoon and a container of yogurt and let her go to town. She started off really well. Grabbed the spoon, dipped it into the yogurt and put it right in her mouth! The spoon was upside down so she had some maneuvering to do, but she ate better than we expected her to. After a few minutes, though, she realized that she could get MORE yogurt into her mouth WAY faster is she just dipped her hands in the container. So off she went. And here are the results of her labor. I'm not sure I've ever seen such a messy, messy child. But she had fun...and she's learning!

| Great attempt at using the spoon all by herself! |

| Absolutely covered in food |

| There was no question about her needing a bath after this! |
