This is his first time eating a broth based soup on his own. Xander loves soup! Call us crazy, but we just didn't want to deal with the mess. But he has been working on his spoon skills and I felt confident to let him try it today. Since I thought he might be getting sick, I picked a chicken noodle type soup. He did so good! He ate a big bowl without any help, left only a small puddle on the table and then let me show him how to finish off the bowl by picking it up and drinking it. I explained that we only do that at home, but i don't think he understood.
