After a week of practically forcing cereal into baby girl's mouth, all I got was a half hearted opening of the mouth when she saw the spoon....SOMETIMES. But today we had real, honest to goodness big girl eating!! Sassy had to do it because apparently she has the magic touch. Ella must know that I am a terrible cook and wants nothing to do with food made by my untalented hands.
Maybe Sassy's trick was that she wasn't so concerned with the mess. I'm always wiping Ella's mouth after every bite, trying not to get her precious outfit-of-the-day dirty. The OCD in me comes out and that child is spic and span no matter where there's food splattage. Sassy took a different approach. Food was EVERYWHERE...her clothes, her bib, the Bumbo, mommy, Sassy...innocent fur babies caught in the carnage. But hey it worked!
Hmm...hmmm...this is good stuff!
This baby was hungry!! Maybe that's the trick?? Starve her until she would eat dirt?? (which is what Daddy often refers to Mommy's cooking as)
Perhaps this is the reason why she was covered in cereal...
When all was said and done, Ella had eaten the whole bowl of cereal!! And I'm happy to report that we had a repeat performance today. Minus the sneezing and face plant. Sweet potatoes and avocado here we come!
