self-feeding

As Eryn grows older, she likes to "show off" the things that she can independently manage on her own, like having her own meals.

She'll insists on holding her own spoon and eating on her own, sometimes messying herself and everywhere.

    that's good. she can start feeding herself - easier for you except for the mess after that.

    jazzmint, ya man. kids just wanna do everything on their own.

    immomsdaughter, independant is one thing, proving to be independant is another thing :P

    Smart baby! Maybe just put a disposable mat on the floor (or just papers), so when she is done, you just throw away the mat?

    amanda, we tried doing that, but she takes the papers and tear them and throw them all over the house like confettis..

    tracy, I've really got no tips for you at all. I think each individual child has their own style. Eryn is opposite from Brendan cos Brendan wanted to be spoon-fed all the time when he was smaller.

    I think she's doing quite well for her age..

    I never wanted to mess up the house.. that's why I never really encourage Zara to self feed.. Bad mumy.

    chanel, I hope Eryn won't ask me to feed her when she's bigger!

    babykhong, she's still very much dependant on me in million ways! :-)

    huisia, sometime the mess take up so much of our energy right?

    milkmaid, hey, that's interesting. ya, good idea - joint celebration

    zara's mummy, you're a supermum definitely!
