Adventures in Pudding

Gabriel is becoming increasingly independent every single day. His big thing now is feeding himself. He is all about feeding himself. He'll let me help a little, but gets frustrated if I get in his way. He is fine with his fingers, and slowly getting better using a utensil. The fork is fine, providing that it is piercing the item of food he is attempting to ingest. The spoon isn't too bad as long as the food is of a consistency that it doesn't easily slide off of the spoon, aka pudding, that is until Gabe gets excited and starts flailing his arms about. When that happens, nothing is sacred. Here are a few pics of Gabe eating chocolate pudding. You can decide whether or not it was a successful venture...
