Dinner time is always an adventure in our home. At Olivia's 15 month check up the doctor said it was time to start letting her eat on her own. This was the end result. Her favorite meal is spaghetti or anything that makes a mess out of her and her clothes. She has also become quite independent. Any help we try to give her usually lands her food on the floor and her in a fit. I think more food lands on the floor than in her mouth. Meal time also brings prayer time. Every time we sit down to eat Olivia quickly folds her arms to remind us to pray. Sometimes she makes it all the way through the prayer and other times we catch her sneaking a bite before we have said Amen. Being parents is great and we are loving every moment of it.

Emigh, I love your blog! I feel the same way about feeding Kathryn. I love that she can eat on her own but it would be so much easier (and cleaner!!) to just feed her myself. We had to put plastic over her chair cushion and move her chair onto just wood so her food would be easier to clean up. I can't wait to find out what you're having!
Emigh,
Olivia is so cute in the picture. With all the spaghetti on her face I can't even see the boo boo on her chin ;-D Love ya Mom
