200/365: pinching puffs

A week ago, I introduced puffs to Luke for the first time. I gave him one at a time and broke them in half and now, I can just sprinkle a few on his highchair tray and he picks them up one at a time and feeds himself!  Sometimes he rakes them with his whole hand and sometimes I catch him being an Occupational Therapist's son and using his fine pincer grasp, thumb and index finger, to precisely snatch that treat and eat it! It is so easy to just sprinkle a few at a restaurant or when I am setting the table...thank goodness for pinching puffs
