Little Miss Independent

Emerson has started eating more and more table food recently. Her want for it comes and goes as her teeth come in (just putting the finishing touches on #s 5 and 6) but overall she will try pretty much anything. She has given up baby food altogether except for some favorite fruits (prunes with applesauce and bananas with oranges) and loves to feed herself. After eying her brother's dessert the other night we thought we'd give this one a try.




I actually only made her hold it for the pictures. Then I broke off little pieces and fed them to her so she wouldn't keep suffering from brain freezes.
She was pretty excited about the whole thing.

She loves her yogurt as well. It is a good substitute when the others in the family are eating ice cream, though she really really loves that. (yeah, I know she isn't 1 yet. They say you are always more lax with the second child, right?) She isn't all about the good-for-her YoBaby yogurt though. She favors Mom's thick Yoplait much more.
