Eating 'Real' Food

Wesley is starting on finger foods, and its going pretty well so far - I was hesitant at first because he only has his two bottom teeth, but babies are surprisingly good at mashing soft foods with their gums (I guess I did not realize this - I just thought he'd choke with no teeth!).  Steamed veggies, wheat toast, and cheese are what we started with.  If we are having something for dinner that he can eat, we'll give him little bites of that as well - for example, we had quiche for dinner and he had small bites of egg and crust.  He's really very interested in food (ha!  Big surprise, right??!?) and gets most of it in his mouth :)

 What is he looking at?
 
Big sister Baylee is just waiting for something to fall of his tray....
 
 Minimal damage as far as cleanup - although its probably mostly on him and in his highchair - but I'd say this was a successful dinner!
