Sweet potato fries

Bailey has not been wanting to eat solids lately and I am thinking that it is because she doesn't want to be spoon fed anymore. Tonight I cooked up some sweet potatoes so that she could pick them up and eat them herself. At first she played with them but then started to chew on some. She didn't eat much but it was progress since she has been refusing food lately.

Thought this was a silly look she gave me...

I don't think she is completely sure of it yet...
(You can see the awning outside the window that Wes has almost finished)

While eating, Bailey kept signing "milk". We don't know if she knows that is what she was actually signing (we have been practicing it for awhile) but I got her a little milk (well...formula) and put it in a sippy cup. She kept signing milk and grabbing the sippy cup to take a drink. It really looked like she knew what she was signing. I sure hope so because I started to think she would never learn it.
