Cutlery

I had a wonderful moment with Connor last night. He was all set in his high chair with dinner, sipper cup and plastic cutlery when I raced back into the kitchen for my dinner. Returning a minute later he had his knife and fork and was trying to cut up his meal! He didn't quite have the coordination but he was doing the right motions and more importantly he was mimicking something he'd seen us do. He was also trying to do something for himself. Usually he wants us to do everything for him and grabs our hands and guides them to what he wants. I was very proud and excited. He's having a very good week.
