Oh my, has mealtime become interesting!  Sam has not only learned how to smash his rice chex and crackers to smithereens, but has also figured out how to pull apart soft foods bit by bit.  It would be cute if he would then eat it, but I’m pretty sure he does it just to leave more behind when he’s done.  After Sam is done eating, we’ve gone to just tipping the high chair and letting all of the food fall on the floor to sweep up.  I’ve also been known to hold Sam over the trash can to shake him off!  That still may not get it all.  I’ve seen bits of hamburger in his crib after a nap, and pieces of crackers on his changing table.  I swear he can get food in places you didn’t know existed.  You never really know how much he’s eaten until you see how much he’s left behind!  I can’t wait to see what the little man does with spaghetti!
