She found this Jell-o cup in the fridge and grabbed it and handed it to me. I got a spoon and opened it up to give her a bite - the last time I tried to give her Jell-o she didn't like it so I expected this to be a one-bite-and-move-on kind of thing.
Wrong-o.
She really liked it...and led me into the living room so she could sit in her favorite chair while I fed it to her. At first, this was going perfectly. I was in control of the cup and the spoon and she patiently waited for me to spoon-feed her bites.
Then something went wrong...I don't know if I was going to slowly with the bites or if she simply decided she could - and would - do it herself, but she took the cup from me and went to town.
At that point, I should have scooped her up and taken her to the highchair, but I figured what the hey...and let her continue.
Since she was enjoying it so much, not much of it went to waste but some Jello-o did make its way to the carpet and a bit got on the arm of her chair. Her dress, though? It was a Jell-o disaster...during her first nap, I had to hand wash it and dry it.
She also enjoyed watching me scrub her chair and the carpet and splashing around in the sink to get clean.
