Meal time = Fun time!

Meals have become way more fun these days with Connor able to branch out to a few new foods. He seems so bored with baby food, so I have to be creative when I feed him. We usually start with a half a jar of veggies/fruit, switch to banana puffs (kinda like fruity cheerios) or Graduate yogurt melts, switch back to the rest of the veggies/fruit. We just recently tried Graduate cheese puffs and veggie puffs...taste similar to Cheetos. Connor loves them! They are big enough where he can hold them and get them into his mouth too...which is very exciting for me! Just this morning Connor was successful with grabbing a yogurt melt and making it into his mouth! Another exciting moment! He usually just reaches for the food on his tray, they usually stick to his arms, palms, or a part of his hand where he can not coordinate a motion to get the food from there to his mouth. Our meals are 99% of the time done without any clothes on (you will understand when you see the pictures below). A sink bath or night time bath usually follow each meal (again...you will understand when you see the pictures!). We are slowly branching out to the world of more finger foods and from there it will only get more exciting. Enjoy some of our meal time pics!


After lunch...apples and prunes


'Mom, do I have anything on my face?!"


After breakfast...the cleanest meal of the day!


I remember when we first used his high chair &
his legs barely poked out under the tray...
