Mommy and Daddy try to keep our meals "Spencer friendly". What that means is that since he likes feeding himself, having foods that he can use his fingers to eat are very important. Breakfast can be complicated since Spencer's typical breakfast consists of a bowl of oatmeal. That's not to say that he hasn't eaten oatmeal with his hands before, but we are encouraging him to use his utensils. A trick that we used with Brian is working with Spencer as well and it's called......"dueling spoons"! With a spoon in each of his hands, he can eat from one while we refill the other one. Additionally, as long as he has a spoon in each hand, he is less inclined to grab a handful!
