Finger foods! Not so much.


On Saturday we tried something new...finger foods. We gave her some cherrios -- or oat rings as one of our baby books calls them. She did a pretty good job grasping them but they never quite made it to her mouth. It's a learning process so we'll try again later. She did seem entertained by the whole experience so hopefully she'll pick it up in stride. We were amused by watching her tedious efforts to pick up the cereal and then bring it carefully to her mouth and then drop it just centimeters from her lips. It takes so little these days.

Greta didn't do so well with cheerios for a long time. She was good about picking them up, but she would choke on them once she put them in her mouth. We found Gerber "Puffs" in the baby food section and she loves them. They dissolve in her mouth almost immediately. Her favorite flavor is sweet potato. Let us know if Ella likes them!
