It's the only way that Cameron will actually eat. I have no idea why he can't eat at the big table but if sitting at a separate table means he actually ingests some food, then so be it. I like the idea you came up. I'll try that on Cam when he gets better at holding utensils. This is soooo horrible but quite often, I let the kids sit at their own table for meals.

I can't believe they are both so grown! I barely recognize them in your Christmas card! Thanks by the way. I hope we get cards out this year (eventually) but it gets harder every year. Let me know if it works for you! We've been doing sandwiches all week so I haven't been able to retest this method yet. :) We still laugh about that too! I can’t believe they are both so grown!

I'm going to use this with Ethan. We are still working on even using utensils, but when he does the bites are about 4 times too large. :) I still chuckle thinking about that peanut butter sandwich! Not much has changed since that day!! ;) Perfect Jen! I’m going to use this with Ethan.

Oh yes. I know exactly what you mean. I listened to an article about children and table manners the other day - if they only knew of how things were over here they'd throw their hands up in horror, a different order of magnitude. ‘all of us sitting and eating together instead of one of us constantly asking if he can be excused before we’ve even started eating – or even have made it to the table!’ Oh yes.

Sometimes I sink wash dishes just for the chance to zone out a bit. It's a good chore to think too =) Isn’t it funny how so many of us take a dishwasher for granted?
