Mealtimes

Did you know that you cannot levitate Rice Krispies by staring at them and opening your mouth?

The buddy boy is just discovering that. "What? I open my mouth, spoon goes in... open my mouth, n1pple goes in... what do you mean I have to do some work here!!"

He has discovered that if he licks his hands, and then presses them into the crumbled up arrowroot cookie, that the cookie will stick, and he can lick it off. Or else, he can be a hoover, lean down really close to the tray, and try to kind of suck the food up.

We obviously need to work on the pincer grip a little bit.

Even if he gets the food into the mouth, he can't get it far enough back on his tongue anyway, so I clean it all out of the folds in his baby neck after, lol!!
