Trying something new

The second installment of pics that were missed earlier this year. Just seeing these sweaters in this 90 degree heat we are having here makes me sweat!

While visiting Gramma earlier this year we had Chinese food and the boys all tried their hands at chop sticks! Now, this might just sound like something fun for anyone to try, but Cutie Pie has a fondness for using the appropriate utensils, and for using a separate utensil for each type of food on his plate, so this was a really fun stretch for him!

Hubby knows how to use them enough to eat with, so he gave the boys a quick lesson. Of course, he’s much more coordinated than they are!

Cutie Pie gave it a go and managed to get creative in finding his own way to get food into his mouth and really had fun trying.

Sweet Pea couldn’t quite do it like Hubby either, but tried a similar method as Cutie Pie, however it was slightly more horizontal and involved the tongue sticking out. That worked pretty well for him!

Both boys agreed it would be fun to try chopsticks again. I’m glad they were open to the idea of eating differently than they normally do! Next time I hope it won’t be a spur of the moment meal thing, or at least that we will be prepared to talk a little more about the Chinese culture.
