This morning my dcp's brought a jar of babyfood for my 15 month old dcb. He hates being spoon fed and hasnt had baby food in 6 months.
I bought some Sili Squeezes a while back and mixed his babyfood with some oatmeal and put it in the Sili Squeeze and he ate it all up!
The sili Squeeze is a reusable pureed food pouch.

I love this product for my own kids and the daycare kids so I thought I would share! 
I saw that on another thread and I am contemplating buying one just so I don't have to spoon feed him. My DCB doesn't have a problem with me spoon feeding him, but I want him to feed himself! The problem I have is they are kind of pricey, and my DCB likes to put his fingers inside any flexible nipples/sippies. He ends up ruining them b/c his fingers are constantly trying to go through the holes. Do you think he would be able to ruin it?
