Independent Baby

So, the baby books say that if your baby grabs for the spoon when you are feeding her, then you should get another spoon out for her to hold.  The theory is that the baby will be satisfied with an empty spoon to hold and will no longer grab for the feeding spoon.  Alas, this approach does not work with Rachel.  She wants to hold the spoon with food on it.  Our attempt at the extra spoon technique resulted in Rachel feeding herself with two spoons.
