Callen's first foray into red colored foods. I try to limit the foods to just neutral based colors just to make my life easier, but after a few days of rice cereal and bananas the poor kid needs some variety in his diet. Thus the spaghetti and meatballs. He really enjoyed it and I read somewhere in one of the parenting magazines (that I devour out of guilt in case I am forgetting some crucial how to on being a parent) that letting them play with their food helps brain function. I figure if I let him finger paint himself every mealtime he can just skip kindergarten and move right on to college. He sure has a knack of making a mess! Luckily he likes his bath right after and my favorite part is when he snuggles with me right before bedtime when he's all clean and smelling like baby lotion. That is when I wish I could stop time and keep him little forever.
