I recently let Ethan eat an entire cup of yogurt by himself without helping. He did really well. Missed his mouth a few times, but the mess wasn't too bad. He's eating really well now and trying a lot more foods now that his molars are in. He really loves the Mama Coco's pasta sauce (it's high in the garlic and olive oil) that we get at Sweet Peas natural foods market. I often puree veges he won't eat and mix them in the sauce and he'll gobble them. Right now he loves to use the word "no." He always tells me no when food is offered, though he still usually accepts it.
