I gave in...

So lately Kennedy has become more independent and has to feed herself. She won't eat anything off a spoon unless she is holding it. Which is fine for most foods, but for some foods, (yogurt, mush & soup) that she loves... I have been avoiding, well.. more like trying to find other food or ways around her feeding it to herself for reasons like this...But hey, she has got to learn one day right!?

haha i LOVE LOVE LOVE these pictures. This is what karlee looks like everytime she tries to feed herself. Everyone keeps telling me i cant feed her forever but I hate cleaning up the mess.

Looks like she had fun! That's for sure.

I don't know when I'll have the courage to do this. haha

At least she doesn't mind the mess :) One of my nephews can't stand it if his hands are dirty. Cute pictures!

Awesome. Totally awesome. Eli did the same thing - INSISTED on feeding himself. So we did just what you did - stripped him bare and let him have at it! It will be messy like that for a while, but then you'll be SO glad she was stubborn about feeding herself...Eli now eats all his meals independently (and has since about 15 months). He's obviously a little messier than your average adult, but it's really not bad. It's awesome!

She HONESTLY is one of the cutest little girls I've ever seen.

haha that is awesome! jonnie is all about feeding herself right now too... and don't even think about putting her in her high chair anymore... she HAS to sit at the grown up table. hopefully they just learn fast, right?!

That's one of the cutest messes I've ever seen! Let me guess - this was right before the poop in the tub. hahahaha
