Clean Plate Club

Harper has hit a not so fun stage in regards to her eating habits. She likes to pull her bib off every 30 seconds while eating. She thinks its a game. So last night I just stripped her down and let her eat without a bib. She was much happier. Another struggle I'm having is getting her to eat her vegetables. When she was younger I made all of her baby food and she ate veggies like a champ. But now that she is "feeding herself" by picking up what she wants - she is not liking the veggies so much. I've tried different tactics to get her to eat them. Instead of dumping the food on her high chair tray, I left it on a plastic plate. She loved picking the food off of the plate and then before I knew it she had cleaned her plate. She decided that she would lick it clean also.
"Ladies and Gentleman - We have our first induction into the clean plate club!"
* Don't mind the turkey dog pieces that she left on her tray. What I was most excited about was the eating of the squash!
