Food Fun


Braylon has finally taken a liking to big boy food. Bryan and I have taken on the task of making homemade baby food and it's really quite simple. We've made Apple Squash, Sweet Potato Squash, Sweet Apple Potato, and Banana Cado. We simply steam or bake, dice, and puree. We place the pureed mixture into regular ice cube trays and freeze. Once frozen, the cubes are stored in ziplock bags. Then, we pull out a few frozen cubes to thaw for the following days meals. He really seems to like our concoctions. The only thing he doesn't like...the fact that he can't quite feed himself yet; something he tries to do ALL the time as you can see from the picture. He's also getting better at using his signs to let us know when he wants to eat and wants more. Sometimes we wonder whether he thinks the sign for "more" is actually the sign for "puffs". Boy, he LOVES those puffs!!
