In the last month or so, Mike and I have taken to letting Ian feed himself with a spoon. Ian has surprisingly done really well with it. For the most part, he can get anything into his mouth with the spoon. He still uses his hands to get some of the trickier stuff but he’s really done a great job.
I got the video camera out to document this step into big-boy-land and decided, what the heck, why not some pictures too? You KNOW I hate taking pictures. 🙂

Eating his corn the old fashioned way, with his hands:
Isn’t he cute???
Eat, momma?
I’m going to look over here to the side, then look back
quick to see if you’re still taking pictures of me: Must. Have. Milk. Now.
Pensive Ian, reflecting on what a big boy he is now….I really have no idea what was going on here….

The end result: full tummy, messy mouth, happy boy:
