Feeding Frenzy

Evan has this new... shall we say, game? that he likes to play at dinnertime. Let's call it "swat the spoon". After allowing a few spoonfuls of food, he starts swatting every time the spoon gets near his mouth. And yes, it makes quite a mess! Mitch captured a bit of it on video last evening, after most of the damage was done:

Here is the aftermath...

ICK!!! Nothing like a baby covered in pureed green beans.... After a little clean up and the removal of the green bean saturated sweater, it's Cheerio time. Much neater for my taste, and it keeps him busy long enough for me to choke down my dinner!

And I have to include these pictures as well from Sunday morning - of Tyler enjoying his first tastes of banana bread. I baked it on Saturday afternoon when we got home from Pumpkinville.

He liked it!! Besides the sugar in it (I didn't use Splenda because I knew he would be eating it), it's pretty healthy because I used whole wheat flour. And of course, the bananas. At least, that's what I keep telling myself!
