In November, Mom decided I was old enough to join the family at dinner. At first, all I did was sit there -- and it was a little alarming!

Then the BIG DAY arrived -- my first solid foods. I had a little tussle with Mom over who got the bowl!

Then came the first bite. Hmm.....

Wait, you want me to have MORE????! Yuck! OK, but let me do it myself.

Hmm... what is this thing? Gee mom, really, I'd rather do it myself.
