Eating Applesauce

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!
