Since Teagan hasn't been too excited about me spoon-feeding her "mush," I decided to go ahead and just give her pieces that she can pick up and feed herself. She loves it! So far I have given her avocado, pears, banana, and baked apple, all cut up in strips or small pieces. She hasn't quite mastered picking up the slippery food, but she likes for us to put a strip in her hand and then she puts it in her own mouth. When the pieces get too small or slimy, I pick them up and then she pulls my hand to her mouth to feed her. She ate more today than I have ever seen her eat, and was so excited about it. On the menu for tomorrow: baked sweet potato fries.
