Since Lucie and Ryan spend quite a bit of time eating (not unlike their mom), there's always something new to report. We've recently turned the spoons over after many not-so-subtle suggestions (firmly closed mouths, shaking heads, screams of dislike) that it was time. "I want to do it myself" - isn't that the toddler mantra?
Our pediatrician said that learning to use a spoon, like potty training, is something you hope they figure out by kindergarden. Not really words of encouragement, but at least she warned us that it's going to be a long process. In the meantime, these little guys sure are having fun, and the word messy has reached a whole new meaning.
