emery feeding herself - 6.15.12

emery always tries to "help" me feed her by trying to grab the bottle and usually ends up knocking it out of her mouth instead. at feeding times (and all the time), i could use an extra arm: one to hold the bottle, one to hold down her "helpful" hands, and one to make sure she doesn't dive out of my lap! she's a busy girl!

today i decided to let her try holding the bottle, and she did a surprisingly good job. of course she couldn't hold it up very well, but she seemed to understand the idea. i feel like this was such a big girl moment for her - she's learning and understanding how to do things herself! yay bunny!
