Finger foods

Elektra has now started to eat various finger foods. Her favorites include the all-time leader, Cheerios, as well as a few Gerber products: the puffed stars and the wagon wheels. She's also eaten some of the cheese puffs, too.

She hasn't mastered the pincer grasp, so she's still raking the finger foods and tries to stuff her whole hand into her mouth. Therefore, most of what she tries to eat ends up under her chin, but that's ok! It keeps her busy while we get to eat.

Unlike DJ, though, she's much less inclined to just hang out in the high chair for long periods of time. Lately, she's been quite fussy after dinner, leading me to believe she's tired and doesn't really want to play, but go to bed instead. Bedtime has been earlier than usual!!
