Yesterday while eating lunch I was using a fork and Brit kept trying to grab it so I got him his own. I didn't think he would use it, mostly just play with it. Well, after a ton of concentration he actually stuck a pear with his fork and knew just what do with it. He was pretty proud of himself. I thought to myself, he can't be growing up this fast. Not that using utensils is some sort of huge milestone, but he needs to stay my baby a little longer! But he was proud as punch showing his Dad and older brothers and sister at dinner! He thought he as HOT STUFF! I am sure it helped that everytime he successfully got something on the fork and into his mouth we all cheered him on! Yes, we are that smittened by this little guy!
Hard at work trying to stab the pear.
After succeeding, sort of hard to get it right into his mouth....
It took a few times...
But he finally got the hang of it! Okay, now that you have read this you may think I am stretching for things to blog about ... in all honesty, I am struggling with the thought of him growing up so fast, that I sometimes find myself just sitting and watching him figure things out. This is one of those moments, that I just happened to capture on film. Crazy I know!

Are you kidding! These are the best things to blog about. The little things are the ones you will forget and now you will always have this to look back on to remember what he did when and how you felt!
Pears...that's impressive...pears are slippery son-of-a-guns, too! It's the little things that bring GREAT joy!
