Give Me Those Potatoes...


Recently Garrison began sitting in his bumbo chair. He has since realized its more fun to be vertical and see things instead of laying down. So during dinnertime we started putting him in his chair on the table so he could see what we were all doing! A few weeks have passed and he is learning that the bumbo chair is no longer fun! On this particular night, we had baked potatoes. Marc finished all his food so he put Garrison on his lap. Marc's potatoes were still in front of him at the table. For some reason Garrison was drawn to this plate. There was a fork laying next to the plate... he was also drawn to the fork!! It was the funniest thing to watch. He grabbed the fork (yes by himself) and began poking the potatoes. After a few minutes of poking at the potatoes he decided to try and put the fork in his mouth! The most impressive part about this event was that he tried to put the correct side to his mouth, which in order to do that he had to twist his fist before moving his hand and arm up to his mouth! Of course for safety reasons, Marc pulled his hand away from his face/mouth and it made him very upset! Overall he was so excited while doing all these motions. The kids and I were cracking up over his new discovery!
