More Development Milestones!

We’ve been feeding Hannah solids for more than a year now on her baby chair. And – finally – just several days ago, our baby girl has learned how to DIY eating dinner! Ling took some video on her very first and successful attempt 2 days ago in the earlier blog. The pictures here are a subsequent attempt yesterday evening:

Surprisingly too, she seems to have developed good eating habits too. E.g. not excessively scooping up too much porridge that she can’t finish at a time, and also that she seems singularly focused on the activity, scooping, chewing and swallowing systematically, without getting distracted.

Best of all, she’s not a messy eater, and that catch-all baby napkin around her neck was free of baby food apart from one bit that dropped from the spoon while she was navigating it to her mouth.

Quite a delightful experience witnessing it myself yesterday night.:)
