The Hungry Caterpillar

Since we apparently don't feed Emma at home, she has to scavenge what she can at daycare. Miss Michelle said that they put the babies in bumbo seats and line them all up so they can eat at the same time. The little guy next to Emma yesterday was having some green beans for lunch. As soon as she got the opportunity, Emma swiped a green bean and scarfed it down. Mind you, she has only had a few puffs here and there at home since until recently, she would gag on them. However, it would appear that the green bean was no problem whatsoever. It also turns out that they have been giving her puffs at daycare for several weeks and she has had some cheerios as she likes to follow around the babies that are eating and pick up whatever they drop. I guess it is time to start introducing a few more table foods. On another note, Brad warned Miss Aimee and Miss Michelle yesterday that Emma had pulled herself up over the weekend and it was a good thing because she pulled herself up twice yesterday.

It sounds like Emma will be your human vacuum cleaner. Whatever food falls on the floor will be swept away by Emma. Does that behavior remind you of Pepper?
