Incentive

Mr. Marcus is our last baby and I think he knows it. He's been taking his sweet time on everything...crawling, walking, holding his own bottle, and feeding himself. Up until 3 weeks ago, he absolutely would not pick up his cheerios (or any other food) and put it into his mouth. We've had to hand feed him. Well, while we were at Celebration City for the St. John's coworkers family picnic, we found out how to get him to finally feed himself. He just needed incentive: we gave him a cookie and the next thing we know he's sitting quietly while chomping down. Here he is just a couple days later feeding himself a well earned oreo. :)
