Claire sporting her Rogie Hair

Lately Claire, in her own little 18 month old way,
has been trying to tell us what she wants to eat at mealtime.
Some of her favorite requests these days are...
Rogies (Pierogies)
Beans (String Beans)
Cocos (Crackers)
Cookies (yup, she says that one LOUD & clear!)
Um-Meal (Oatmeal)
Nannas or sometimes Mannas (Bananas)
Apples
Potta (Pasta)
Cocky (Broccoli)
Egga (Eggs)

She follows up each request with a big cheesy grin and a loud "Peeeeeeee" (please) and we are just putty in her little hands. Cocos and Potta for dinner, Claire? Sure. No problem.
Claire has also gotten much better at eating with a fork. Consequently Starla has also mastered the skill of eating off a fork. Hands are still Claire's utensil of choice though. Especially when she's eating something good and greasy. After a meal of pierogies for instance, she loves to squish the potato filling between her fingers and then rub it in her hair. Steve and I call it "Rogie Hair". (See Above!)

At least you found food she likes to eat :)
(hey Marcie, when did Livi do that?)
I remember Jill Ricker's kids when she found them in the closet with vaseline...
