As I stood in the kitchen last week making our Nugget her first batch of baby food I couldn't help but cry. Have we really reached the age of food making already? With that being said, it has been so much fun introducing Em to food. So far we have done Sweet Potatoes, Avocado and Squash and she seems to love them all. Since sweet potatoes were the first thing we tried she seemed to have a bit more trouble with the texture. We did thin the puree with breast milk and gradually over 4 days gave her a thicker version. By the time we moved to avocado and squash she was downing it. With the avocado we were able to give it to her a bit chunky and since squash is so watery anyway, all it required after cooking was a quick run in the Baby Bullet. She more or less licks the food off the spoon and it is so funny to watch her reactions.
Here she is having her first few bites of Sweet Potato!
