WOW!! HE'S SMART!!

Tonight Evan and I hung out with John and Amy giving mom the night off. I fed Evan, which is a challenge there without a high chair so he crawls around. After he ate 3/4ths of his cereal he was bored and wanted to play which is typical for him to take a play break during his meals.

After 5 or 6 minutes of playing I tried to feed him some more cereal. He scrunched his face, puckered his lips, and turned his head away. His full 'No I don't want to eat that."

I figured he was just done eating, but then he did something amazing.

Evan crawled away from me, across the room to where his unopened, gerber baby food was. He picked it up and crawled back over to me where he held it up for me to take it.

I opened the food and he started gobbling it down.

Evan clearly chose not to have cereal but to have his baby food instead!! I was shocked that not only did he know what was in the other food jar, he choose that food over his cereal!!

Unreal!!
