Progression...or not

We have been working on feeding ourselves with silverware lately.

Favorite foods: 

Khloe- sweet potatoes, broccoli, yogurt, halo oranges, toast, eggs  dislikes- meat

Kenzie- yogurt, halos, toast, raisins, grapefruit, fried eggs 

Kayla- milk :)

Usually, I fill the spoon/fork, hand it to each girl and pray they get it in their mouth before it drops all down the front of them.  But today, I felt like I had extra patience, so I thought I would let them try it for themselves.  Notice how well each girls starts:

Khloe loves to tip her spoon upside-down before getting it to her mouth...note to self, find stickier foods!

Look Nana, I'm wearing a bib!

My finger is easier and less mess than my spoon mom, trust me...

In fact, I think I'll just drink it.

Kenzie does great at bringing the spoon to her mouth upright,

Until she watches her sister (notice the eyes, clearly watching Khloe drink her yogurt)

Mom, if Maddie and Khloe do it, so can I!

 The girls are 17 months now, they love to talk to each other, scheme with each other, empty drawers, toothbrushes, and their baby sister!  Khloe loves to give hugs and reach blindly on any counter/drawer she can get to.  Kenzie loves her little sister, taking whatever Khloe pulls off the counter, and running away from daddy.

 This morning, Kayla and I went to church!!!  She did great!  However, like her sisters, she doesn't like to sleep in her car seat and after 5 minutes was awake.  She did fall back asleep in my arms and made it through almost the whole service.  In her defense, we had baptism and communion.
