If your LO disliked spoons at first, when did they eventually start to let you use one for feeding them?

We started purees at 6 months and she was into them for a few weeks, but quickly started refusing them 80% of the time. I always figured it was the purees she wasn't into, but I think a large part of it is the spoon! This week (8.5 months) I've started giving her chunks of my food and she LOVES it, but will only take food if I hand feed her with my fingers - no spoons! It's pretty cute because she's SO into it and dives for my fingers if I have food on them. I'm definitely not worried about it, just curious about the experience of others
