One Small Step For Larkyn Kind!!!

We had a very small baby step and I mean very small baby step with Larkyn's eating this morning. Just as the our Doctor told us we sit Larkyn at the table while we eat breakfast and we offer her food on her tray... She usually just plays with it for a minute or two looking at it with disgusted and NEVER puts it near her mouth. But today I decided to try one more time to give this girl some food on a spoon "Totally against Dr's orders". After about two minutes of playing with her face and mouth she popped her thumb in and began to such it. So while she was sucking her thumb I took the spoon with baby bananas on it and offered it to her. Still sucking her thumb she opened her mouth just enough to get a bit from the spoon... We must have done this at least three times always smiling she took the bite and then finally she took a bite from the spoon without her thumb. No crying No screaming involved just took the bite. Of course after that she wouldn't do it again she just took one bite just to prove to me and the world that if she wanted to she could actually eat something. I know that at that same time Larkyn was taking her first bite of food that some where in the world something more miraculous was happening... But at our household the most wondrous thing was Larkyn taking that BITE!!!!
