Self-Feeder

So, what I've read so far has suggested you use "sticky" foods to help teach your kids to scoop and self feed with a spoon. She'll feed herself pretty much anything solid if you load it on the fork (so it doesn't roll off) for her. I've not braved letting her self feed anything too runny yet...I just don't relish constantly wiping up her, the bib, the table and the floor. It's also been suggested that we just do hand-over-hand...unfortunately Hayden's independent spirit isn't very fond of this process.

Sweet potato has been the only sticky food we have had recently so here we go....
