Eating progress

Simon is getting a little better at the finger food, as in he hasn't vomited after putting food in his mouth. We've started putting a scattering of soft or dissolvable foods on his tray.  We figure even if he isn't really eating it, it's helping his fine motor skills as he works on his pincer grasp.  Plus, it's a great way to keep him occupied, and eventually he will learn to eat as he gets used to the foreign objects being in his mouth.  Here he is eating a specially designed food for babies learning to eat called "yogurt bites."  They dissolve really easily, so they stick to his wet fingers too.
