Give Me More!

You may recall that Noah's first solid food didn't go so well. Our little boy has turned into quite the eater. He has now enjoyed the following foods:

• Rice cereal
• Baby oatmeal
• Pears
• Applesauce (unsweetened)
• Sweet Potatoes
• Peas
• Carrots

Well, to write that he has enjoyed peas may be a stretch, but he did eat them. That's more than we could say for Lily sometimes. It's also been good to make some of our own baby food. Those little containers from Gerber are nice and all, but it's a lot cheaper to buy a single sweet potato, nuke it for about 10 minutes, and have him eat that for the better part of a week.

Amanda had a brilliant idea for storing the homemade food. It only lasts for 2-3 days in the fridge, so we put it in ice cube trays. It's a little tricky to get out (you've got to run warm water on the backside) but it does make for nice little servings. You should see Noah's face when we thaw out sweet potatoes!

Sorry for double-posting today, but I thought Noah should get his own post for a change.
