Mr. Independence

Carter is now showing even more signs of being independent. His new thing is feeding himself. He has been eating finger foods for some time now and as long as things are cut up small and cooked well, he eats everything we eat. Now he likes using his own utensils. Sometimes I have to help him scoop up his food but he does a really great job at doing it himself. In fact today he fed himself his own bowl of mac n' cheese. His favorite is stabbing things with a fork to eat. Let's just hope he sticks to his food and doesn't start stabbing anything or anyone else. Ouch!
