Using Utensils = Big Girl!

Yea! Our little girl is getting so big. She's now using utensils! Can you believe it?

Now, Mommy and Daddy have been hesitant to give her a try because of the mess. Okay, so maybe just Mommy, but with Camryn's 18 month check-up coming soon, I figured we ought to give it a try. :) So, we started with using a fork for her veggies. This definitely got her eating SO much better. Who doesn't love eating broccoli if you can use a fork?! :) She did great! She needed a little help to stab the bites, but could get them to her mouth with no trouble at all. So, a few days later we decided to give the spoon a try. We started with applesauce! We gave her the spoon and cup of applesauce and let her at it. Again, she did great and hardly missed her mouth much at all. She thought she was BIG stuff, getting to use utensils like Mommy and Daddy. So once again, whether we like it or not, she's growing up. :( and :).
