Poppy’s favorite thing to do/play with on her exersaucer is taking off the lid to the snack tray and chewing on it.  When we looked at the reviews for this exersaucer alot of people complained that the lid came off, well heres one mother whos glad that the lid does come off because Poppy loves it.  Recently we have been trying Poppy out with different snacks, as you saw earlier we have tried the ‘puffs’ that look like Cherrios but Poppy isn’t very keen on eating them.  So I found a coupon for the Gerber’s graduates lil’ crunchies and bought the cheesy ones, they are yummy!  And we have successfully found a snack that Poppy likes.  They are bigger and longer so obviously she can pick them up more easily but she also likes using her teeth on them and biting down to snap them in half.  Its funny how the smallest things that your child does makes you feel so utterly proud, I’m embarrassed to say that Poppy using her teeth to eat these lil’ crunchies makes me feel so proud of her.  A side note to all new parents or parents to be: every intsy teeny weeny little milestone/progression/step/achievement brings on this rush of excitement and joy towards your baby, its such a lovely feeling.  Anywho, today I decided to put these lil’ crunchies in the snack tray on her exersaucer and watch her find them and gobble them up.

Here is the story of Poppy’s snack discovery in pictures.
