Kollin Bear has been eating "solids" since he was three months old. It is a little early, you aren't supposed to feed them solids until 4 months, but we had our reasons. The main one, Ken wanted to be able to feed him and get that bonding time. It is so much fun to watch them together. Kollin gets it everywhere. Ken is doing his best to keep the clothes clean and food off the floor to no avail!
Ken and I cook everything from scratch, well almost everything. Pizza gets thrown in the mix from time to time. It didn't make sense to us to purchase prepared baby food chock full of preservatives. We make our own at home instead. It is so much fun. A few times I week I mash up sweet potatoes, bananas, pears, peas.....the list is endless. I love to watch him enjoy what we have made for him. The only thing he eats out of the box is rice cereal. I am sure there is a way to make that but I haven't looked into it.
Now kollin is getting bored of the rice cereal and one flavor foods. HOORAY!! I get to start mixing up different veggies and fruits together!!! Onto the food processor! I just bought a book (and food processor) on line with different baby food purees. I am giddy about it! I check the tracking every day for the arrival. it wont get here until Monday or Tuesday but maybe just maybe it will come early. Come on UPS!!!!!
Recycling, breast feeding, home made baby food...what is next? Dread locks??
