coolest new eating device

John built a "ducky" eating device after seeing it on another girl with AMC's blog.  Luca gets the spoon with this mouth, scoops with his mouth holding the back end of the spoon, then puts the spoon in the close pin, spins the close pin around with his nose and eats the food off of the spoon. Luca still needs a mouth piece on the end of the spoon but even without the mouth piece he can feed himself more independently than before. John and I can also load up the spoon and put it in the close pin and Luca can eat the bite when he is ready. This really eliminates frustration of feeding him and holding the spoon etc. I am super excited and hope that this is a start to more successful mealtimes!
