So I’m totally off track with the daily adventures.
(I know what you’re thinking…Tara, what a surprise! See also the non-daily series: #best09, #reverb10, and the 18 days of the 21-day salute. Ahem.)
Anyway, there was a recent adventure (day 9 maybe?) that involved food, either eating or cooking something new. Since this entire month has been an experiment in letting Eli feed himself, I thought I would share how our son is doing with self-feeding.
Big props for effort.
The tooth helps. He just misses his mouth. Often.
And in the week since this picture was taken, he has another tooth. You can see the tiny beginnings of it up above, if you squint hard. The addition of another tooth brought with it some fussiness but seems to be making Eli extra brave in his eating.
Here’s to trying new food, getting more of it in your mouth and making every meal an adventure!
(Yes, I’m using the Merry Christmas bib in January. I also still have some of my holiday decorations up. Whatever.)
