A Solution. Jack has come to a final decision on eating from a spoon: "No way, no how." So, we have moved to finger foods exclusively. This weekend he tried shredded cheese, pasta, tiny pieces of turkey & ham, and soon will experience Spaghettios. So far, so good. As long as he is in control of picking up the food, he'll accept it being in his mouth.
"This cheese ain't half bad, Mom!"
It must be genetic - Jackson loves his books! He'll turn and stare at his shelves of books from across the room and begin to pull and tug to be brought over there. Then he sits and pulls them all off the shelves one by one, examining the covers and occasionally opening them up. His two favorites are still Millie Moo and Ten Little Ladybugs because they have things on each page you can touch and they're very colorful.
This Saturday we visited with Grammie, Grandpa Cortese & Carol in Haverhill, MA. Jack reached out to be held by his grandfather, which was very nice!
So tired! And there's no better place to rest than in Daddy's arms.
