I realized that although this blog is supposed to be an avenue to share my inner thoughts, it has become a compilation of EV's milestones and adventures. Oh well, what can you do? When I leave work, most of what I think about is EV, I'm such a typical momma bear!
EV has always been a very opinionated and stubborn baby. So, it does not surprise me when you started insisting that you feed yourself with a spoon. In an attempt to minimize the mess that I will have to clean up afterwards, I tried to place foods that are sticky onto the spoon so that it'll stay on until you get it into your mouth. You took the spoon from me, stuck it in your mouth, sucked on the spoon until everything was off of it, and threw the spoon on the table, as if you were saying, "put some more on the spoon, please." After you were done with dinner, I gave you fruit for dessert, and you proceeded to put the fruit onto the spoon but got frustrated when the fruit would fall off before you got the spoon into your mouth. Eventually, you learned to balance the fruit on the spoon and get it into your mouth. At one point I tried giving you the bowl but you cannot scoop the food out of the bowl yet. That made a real mess. Note to self: buy a deeper spoon.
