- Today we were having the typical Sunday evening snack of popcorn and milkshakes at my parent's house. Aliyah was not content (or even willing!) to eat the little "safe" pieces of popcorn that I broke apart put in front of her. Oh no, she needed to reach into the bowl and grab popcorn out of it just like everyone else.
- We had macaroni and cheese for supper tonight. I handed my Mom a bowl of it to start feeding to Aliyah. Aliyah loves mac and cheese. She gobbles it down. My Mom tried to give her a bite and Aliyah immediately shut her mouth and turned away from the spoon. I explained to my Mom that Aliyah usually feeds herself because she wants to be like her big brother and big sister. But nope, that didn't work either. Still refused to eat out of the bowl in front of her. But yet she kept throwing a fit because she saw the bowl of mac and cheese that I was holding and getting ready for Hope. I tried to switch bowls . . . nope, still the same reaction. Finally, I realized it was because she wanted a spoon with an orange handle just like the spoons that Samuel and Hope had. I gave her an orange spoon and it was like magic - she started gobbling down the mac and cheese!!
