Such a big boy!

Oliver has been getting his first attempts at self-feeding. His pediatrician told me to let him try to use a sippy cup a few times a day. I have also been giving him Zwiebeck toasts. I know that some people may think he is too young to have these already but I sit right beside him while he eats them just to make sure that he doesn't bite too much off. He LOVES them. He absolutely mauls them. And I am sure they feel pretty good on his gums while he works those top teeth in. I do take it away and give him a fresh one when it gets too small and he has a fit because I took it away. As for the sippy cup, he gets the concept but still needs to figure out that he needs to tip his head back to drink it. He pretty much needs to be hosed down after one of these sessions, but they sure are fun!
