First Attempt

Miranda really wants to feed herself with a spoon, and I have let her practice a little here and there. I would fill the spoon with something sticky, hand her the spoon and let her put the spoon in her mouth. She has done very well with this, and she has been feeding herself finger foods for a while now. This morning, I decided it was time for her first attempt at feeding herself with a spoon. I made her blueberry oatmeal, fed her a few bites, then put the bowl on her high chair and handed over the spoon. She started off well.


Then she got frustrated and ditched the spoon.


But she had a great time and enough oatmeal made it into her mouth to sustain her until lunch!
