We had to quit feeding Reese applesauce for awhile because although she liked it, she would not let us feed it to her. She wanted to feed it to herself and was trying to do it with her hands. It did not work that well and she would get frustrated because she couldn't get it into her mouth, and we would get frustrated cleaning her up.
Now, she has learned to use a spoon and can get the applesauce out of the bowl and into her mouth by herself. She still makes a mess, but it is minimal compared with the mess she made eating applesauce with her hands.

Another Point of View
My aunt is here from Thailand and she enjoys taking care of Reese. She was never married and never had kids of her own. She notices things that I don't pick up on about Reese.
Reese likes bananas, and if you give her a banana, she will turn it to the slim side (the ends) to hold it and eat it.
If Reese is upset or does not like what my aunt has done, she will go and sit in her Little Tykes car.
If my aunt has food in her hand, Reese will race her to her feeding chair to climb in and eat.
There are a bunch of things that I am forgetting right now, so I will try to remember and post again!

Uh Oh!
These are Reese's new words. It is very cute to hear her say them. They also go with her new climbing habits. She stands up on a step stool or gets up on a kitchen chair and claps her hands.
Uh Oh! also describes going shopping with Reese. She does not like to sit in the stroller or cart, and if you let her down, it is uh oh! she has disappeared!
Reese has gained some teeth. She has her ninth front tooth and her first molar, but I don't try to check that often because I tend to get bit! She loves to eat and will eat almost anything, but especially likes chicken wings, noodles, apples, strawberries, and bananas. She is not too fond of fish!
At 16 months old on Sunday Reese is still a tiny little thing wearing 12 month clothes that are sometimes still big. She is finally growing into the 12-18 month slippers that I bought for her around Christmas, and she has been wearing even though they were big because they did not cause her to trip.
Today is the first day that she has waved bye bye to me from her perch in the high chair as I was leaving her at school. The teachers say she needs that time in the high chair at the beginning of the day to observe what is going on and will get down about 10 minutes later.
