Funny Face

Gabe loves to eat and is really getting alot better at grabbing finger foods with his "pincer grasp" (that's the special ed. teacher in me speaking about thumb and first finger use for picking small things up) to feed himself. He likes Cheerios, Goldfish, and biter biscuits. He also eats Zweiback toast and graham crackers without any help. He acts like such a big boy in his high chair.

Because I am the Mommy, I am supposed to help his with his table manners and worry and fret about him choking at every meal, so I am always telling him not to put so many things into his mouth at once and to make sure to "chew it up." I find myself making my lips smack and making funny chewing sounds at him and he just wrinkles up his face and giggles at me. I have been trying my damnedest to catch this look on film and finally got it!

By the way he now has 4 teeth across the top and the bottom 2 in front that you can see here--right next to the Goldfish crackers he is mashing around in there.

What a HAM!!
