Eating Puffs

Tonight Savvy started feeding herself baby puffs. We put a few on her high chair tray and she picked one up, put it in her mouth, chewed, swallowed, and smiled. And then repeated the process until all the puffs were gone. She's still a little slow at grabbing the puffs with her finger and thumb but when she gets it she knows to go straight to her mouth.

She also started playing with a new stacking rings toy today. It has an elephant on top and she loved chomping on his head. Then she played with the rings and I couldn't resist plopping one on her head.

I made some delicious apple crisp tonight thanks to one of my friends. She gave me a bag of apples along with her recipe and I am so glad I tried it. Candler isn't much of a sweets person and wasn't going to have any. He walked into the kitchen, looked in the oven, and then came back and said "Well, maybe I will have some." Looked so good he couldn't resist! Yum!
