He used a spoon the first time just before his first birthday. We offer a spoon or fork every time it's appropriate, but it's a crapshoot. He's about 14.5 months and only uses them sometimes. He'll usually take a bite or two with the utensil and then hold it and use his other hand to shovel.

My LO is 13.5 months and he used a spoon at around 8 months but then went hands only until about a month ago when he stated wanting to feed himself with his spoon or fork. He won't let me do it much anymore because he wants to and his aim and stabbing precision is not the greatest but he manages to still get a good amount down. He eats with his hands a bit too. Sounds normal to me.
