Spoons!

We have recently been brave enough to, first, introduce plates/bowls and, then, spoons/sporks to the kiddos during meal time. I am actually amazed at how well, and neat, they are with both. They occasionally pick up the plates and bowls and either try to wear them or throw them, but with some, umm, stern warnings they usually put them back down on the trays. The other night I grabbed some quick videos of the spoon eating. Well, Colin is eating nicely with his spoon, but Gillian is mostly looking at her bowl, until she hears the word "head" and then she decides to take action.

Thank you for the day brightener! Love the look on Gillie's face when she decided that wearing the bowl might be more fun than eating from it. Colin is like Grandpa-no foolishness gets in the way of food!

Bean does have an awesome facial expression when she goes to put the bowl on her head. Like, "Thanks for the idea!"
