Eating Cleanly

As part of Everett's speech therapy (to strengthen his jaw), he is supposed to drink things like yogurt, applesauce, and smoothies through a straw.

Let me tell you, I am loving this. There is no mess! Usually when Everett eats yogurt he drips all over his shirt, but now as I look over, he's slurping up the last bit and there are no drips in sight. The best part is, Everett loves straws and now it is as easy as ever to get him to have a healthy snack.

Fantastic. I think I may have to start Ashley this way, too.

Yogurt is the worst. Lauren has now started coloring on her tray with her leftover yogurt/applesauce. I usually leve the cleaning up for later because I'm frustrated, but I always regret that descion.
