A Delicious Lunch

Mariella has been so adamant about feeding herself that I thought I'd try a new strategy today. I found the training "spoon" that I bought for Jacob (which he never used to eat, but it became a very fun play-doh toy), washed it up, and stuck it in a bowl of chicken & vegetable dinner. She loved the idea. It made for a nice, messy, completely eaten lunch.

The bowl is on her lap in this one

When the food is gone, you might as well eat the bowl.
