Growing Boy

David took these of Andrew using a fork to eat. There are just a few things that he will eat by himself. He still likes us to feed him his food. But he sure is growing up fast sometimes. Hopefully he'll become more independent as the year goes on.


Andrew's new favorite food is a nectarine. We started buying nectarines and eating them. Andrew being the "mooch" as he is, wanted to try one. So David gave him a bit of one. Andrew started off taking a small bit to taste it, to see if he liked it. His next bit was really big, so we figured that he likes them. He's been eating them ever since.
Just last week I gave him one to eat and he ate the whole thing. I now just give him a nectarine while he is sitting in his chair, with a plate underneath, and he goes to town. Andrew started off leaving the nectarine on the plate and bringing his mouth to it. Now he has learned to use his hands to eat it. Such a mess but he loves his fruit.
