Spaghetti Dinner

Well, I've been afraid to start the whole Judah feeding himself thing for a while now. I'm just not looking forward to the mess. However, I know I need to give in. I think it will help his eating habits and not to mention be nice that I don't have to feed him! So the other night we had spaghetti for dinner and we let Judah dig in. It was messy to say the least and I think he managed to get about a teaspoon full in his stomach. Most of his feeding himself consisted of him putting spaghetti on the spoon. He also didn't like the ground beef in the sauce so every time he got a little bit in his mouth that was swiftly spit out (we're working on "no spitting" too, oh geez!) All in all, Judah had lots of fun. But it did take me a LONG time to clean up this mess. At least most dinners he feeds himself in the future won't be as messy as spaghetti!
