ellen has just started having finger foods.  So far she has had bread which she loves, a couple of crisps (skips), The soft part of a grape, cheese and yorkshire pudding.  Also ellen has also sucked on a choccie biscuit and a few choccie buttons.  This was at a birthday party and she doesn't have them very often. 

She actually gets on better with finger foods than she does puree foods x
