Luke loves to feed himself. He is always much happier eating when it is something he can put in his mouth instead of being fed to him on a spoon. If I want to get something into him with a spoon, I make sure he's got something in his hand as well and just sneak it in. Beside cheerios, he like pieces of banana and string cheese, rice, beans and peas.
Last week we noticed that Luke would start getting fussy for no apparent reason - all his needs like naps, bottles, and meals were being met - or so we thought. I finally thought to give him a snack of cheerios in his highchair and he went town, polishing them off in a few minutes.
Hmmm...snacks! This kid needs snacks!
I figured he was so good with his hands he could handle one of Liam's Snack Trap cups (It has a perforated lid that kids can put hands in to get the snack without the snack spilling out.) and he figured it out immediately. He loves it! I attached it to his car seat on Friday and I could hear him eating and making umm umm noises. I looked in my rearview and saw that his eyes were closed. He was sleep eating!
