Lessons from my high chair

Water always tastes better if it comes from a straw.

If you don't like a food you have a few options: you can refuse to open your mouth, wait till your mouth is full and then sneeze (make sure you aim at mom or dad), spit it out, throw it off your tray, or discreetly take it out of your mouth with your fingers and hide it like in your hair.

Yogurt makes a great hair styling product. And oatmeal or other food makes a good face mask.

Always hold out for Cheerios.

Beware of strange mixtures, like egg yolk and applesauce. Mom, did you really think I would be fooled? Would you eat it? I didn't think so.

The second bite is always better than the first. (I always make a face on the first bite as my taste buds freak out and wonder what the new food is.)

You can try to save food for later by throwing it on the floor, in your chair, and under your neck in that crease, but mom will probably find it.

For cuteness factor: pucker your lips and try using your teeth.
