So I have been a bad mommy when it comes to teaching Cameron to self-feed. He will do finger foods but I haven't worked much with spoon feedings.
When he was little we were always going somewhere and I didn't want him to get messy (yeah, I know better now - who really cares, right?). He quickly learned that he doesn't have to feed himself because someone else will do it.
So I had an idea, on a night the boys were to get a bath I would put them at their table in their diapers and give them something they would REALLY want to eat - ice cream!
Although it looks good in the picture, Cameron wasn't having it. He didn't care what was in that bowl, he just wanted to take a bath.
Mitchell however was happy to explore, get messy and eat some ice cream (even if it was with his hands).
Maybe next time!
What day is it, even?

Oh, I've been bad with the spoon & fork feeding, too. I really don't want to deal with the mess since whenever I bring out utensils crying and food throwing starts! Really, can't they just live on finger foods forever, LOL.
