Strawberries

Pippa has had strawberries before, but this is the first time we took photos of her eating some.  Usually, I am not a fan of photos of messy babies eating.  However, I feel like this mess isn't extreme and Pippa is a pretty funny girl.

She starts by crushing the strawberry in her hand to make sure it is dead.  When she sees the strawberry bleed she knows it is safe to eat.

She then looks to me or T for verification that the strawberry is, indeed, dead.

The first bite of each strawberry is huge.

She tries to fit it all in her mouth at once or it might escape.

Oh, no!  This one might not be all the way dead!

(These two faces crack us up.  She makes them every time she eats, even if it is something we know she likes.)

She is not amused that T and I mislead her about the dead / alive status of the strawberry.

But all is forgiven when we offer a new strawberry.

Bring that good stuff here!  It's lip smacking good!

And one from the strawberry clean up.

 I brought T two washcloths for the bath and dropped one on Pippa's head.  It stayed there all of bath time until it was time to wash her hair.  I'm not sure if she didn't notice it all or if she was practicing keeping her head up like a princess.
