Silly Snacker

Emily loves to eat, but she's pretty easily distracted when something more interesting comes along. We've found that if we sometimes do things to break up the monotony of sitting in her high chair or booster that she'll usually eat better because she thinks we're playing a game.

Since she gets up at 6:00 in the mornings during the week and doesn't eat breakfast at school until around 8:30, she still eats something here before we leave. She loves oatmeal, and got to sit up on the island in the kitchen one morning this week!

When we got home that afternoon, she ate some dried fruit in her snack cup, which always makes her happy. She's decided now that the stairs are her favorite place to sit--she'll get on the second step so she can dangle her legs off.
