Do You Know the Muffin Man?

Now that Ben is a big boy, he wants to eat like one. That means that he no longer wants us to cut his food into small pieces for him to eat. He wants to take small bites and then shove as much of whatever he is eating into his mouth as he can. Honestly, it is really cute to watch him try to figure this whole eating thing out, but it also makes me crazy! I have to watch him like a hawk to make sure he doesn't choke.
This is a perfect shot of that shoving thing I was talking about...and of course he was choking not long after that.

At the end of the day, he is pretty happy with himself! And Mommy is learning to let go and let him learn some things the hard way. Next up... the spoon!!
