"Any food not fit to wear is not fit to eat."

Evelyn has been an active explorer in the world of food for quite a while now and is very much enjoying it! She is a pretty messy eater, which can be expected since she's a baby, but I also blame her father...he's pretty messy too :) Anywho...unfortunately she eats mostly baby food, which is pretty gross but luckily she doesn't know much of a difference! She also is starting to want my food though so she's getting a bit of that every once and awhile too. She loves eating though! As well as her cousin Jeremiah (who's almost 9 months and his adoption is being finalized next month which means a big post of pics of him and Evelyn!!! They're so cute together!) He looooves food though!

Anywho...Evelyn has been picking up food all by herself for the past two weeks or so and it's soooo cute! Her fingers are just so long and...well it's hard to explain. Annie refers to her as Eber Scissorhands (Mellisa's kids say Ebelyn instead of Evelyn...)...and she totally moves her hands in that kind of awkward Edward Scissorhands way....it's pretty darn funny! She likes to eat the puffs and things like that, they're easy to pick up and dissolve in her mouth so they're easy to eat, they're so great!!! She picks the puff up and shoves it in her mouth and then chews on it and her fingers at the same time, I can't get her to eat them without having her fingers in her mouth but meh...I guess it's fine, she'll learn :) I have an adorable video of her eating by herself for the first time but unfortunately my computer won't load videos.... :( But here's some pics anyway.
