An Eating Machine

Allie has been on solids for about three weeks now.  She has done so well with a variety of flavors and textures.  So far she has enjoyed apples, pears, bananas, apricots, sweet potatoes, and squash.  She has had mixed reviews on avocado, peas, and carrots. 

I’ve started making my own baby food using organic fruits and veggies.  It’s really easy to do and I think it’s cheaper.  The only drawback is that it’s not as fast as popping open a jar, but I feel good knowing exactly what’s being fed to her and I can control the consistency.  It’s also better for the environment because I’m not getting rid of all those glass jars!  This weekend, I plan on visiting the local farmers market to get fresh local produce and tomorrow we’re going to try some peaches.  Yum!
