Eating solids: Cole's way or the Highway

So just when we thought we had it all figured out, Cole tricked us again. Apparently, he still really despises eating while sitting in his high chair. (Although high chairs at restaurants are perfectly acceptable, and thank goodness for that!). He prefers to eat while hightailing it around the living room. So around 5:30/6 each night, after wearing him for about a half hour, I put his bib on and plop him down on the living room floor. He opens his mouth; I give him a spoonful; he eats and crawls away. Five to ten seconds later - depending on his level of hunger - he crawls back, mouth open, ready for more.

Here is Cole taking a break from eating to play with the baby monitor.
