Occupational Therapist $234

Today I finally got Bellerina to hold her bottle.
Should this be a big deal for a girl who is about to turn 1 this weekend? No. But it is!
She is excessively resistant to feeding herself. For example, until today you would have thought the bottle was literally on fire because every time her hand touched it she would pull it away at ninja-speed and fuss. Of course, it was also accompanied by a "don't you dare do that to me again" stare of death.
She must just not have been ready, because this morning after a continuous song called "hold your bottle, keep you hands right there", we had success! And it worked again for her afternoon bottle.
One basic skill conquered.
Next I've got my eye on those Cheerios that she thinks are cymbals.
