Macyn Feeding Herself!

I was feeding Macyn some plums when she pulled her head back and grabbed the piece of plum I had on my finger and put it in her mouth. After that, she wouldn't let me feed her anymore, she had to to it all herself. I would put a piece on my finger and she would grab it and bring it to her mouth. I quickly grabbed the camera and this is what followed:
Here she is working on her pincer grab taking the plum off of my finger. She was
concentrating so hard but she was also muttering something the whole time. I think she was talking to herself and telling herself "You can do it!" She dropped this piece of plum on her leg.

She was able to pick it up with a pretty good pincer!

Here she is staring at the piece of fruit! Look at her little tongue sticking out!

Ahhh, the sweet taste of success!

Although she is getting a lot better at bringing food to her mouth, here were a few casualties that fell on the floor! Not too bad!!
I can't believe how far she has come from her milky rice cereal! I am so proud of her, she is such a good eater, she eats pretty much anything we put in front of her! She has to keep up the chub somehow I guess!
