If first she doesn't succeed

Before:
Logan and I read in a book about children nutrition that babies between 7-9 months old should start learning to feed themselves. This has not occurred to me before, so we are always the ones shoveling the food in. I don't really like the thought of getting food all over the place, but I realized that it's the way babies learn. So I thought I would try it one day with some mashed up bananas. I think she loved trying to pick up the bananas and play with them. But I don't think she thought to put it in her mouth. Maybe it takes more than one try. I'll let you all know how it goes next time.

If you click on the After picture and look closely, you can see Leah's little bottom teeth.
