Utensils

At Will's 18 month check up they asked if he was using utensils at mealtimes. I hesitated and said, "not really." To which they replied, "He's probably able if you give them to him." Right...somehow I had just become content with Will using his fingers to eat and hadn't offered him forks or spoons recently. Until last week. Last week, I offered him a fork with something and he was SO excited and proceeded to stab it and flip the fork around in his hands and then feed himself. He was so happy with himself. Besides that, it slowed him down at mealtimes, so now he's finishing with the rest of us and I'm not feeding him crackers just to keep him in his seat! Here's a couple shots of his recent achievement:
