Jackson Feeding Himself

Jackson has started learning to feed himself. Now we are neither brave or crazy enough to let him do this anywhere besides our house. And right now we are sticking with sticky foods like mashed potatoes, mac n cheese, oatmeal and such. However this is still a very messy task. Here is a look at his very first try at it. He really does good at taking the spoon and getting it in his mouth. Now he does not know how to dip it out of the bowl yet so Mommy does that part for him.

Jackson decided to take a look at his bowl. Another reason for sticky foods.

Right after the previous picture Jackson gave his bowl a toss. Splattering the potatoes everywhere!!!! But all in all he ate most of the bowl feeding himself every single bite!! So I was still proud of him!

Maybe he could teach HC. I think it is probably our fault she doesn't feed herself. But now we are just happy to get her to eat. She has it the stage of not wanting things she used to like. Good times ahead!
