Time to start feeding these growing babies! They have been getting more and more interested in us eating so I figured it was time to get the trusty "Super Baby Food Book" out! We started out with cereal for about a week until we got down the whole spoon feeding thing and then we moved on from there!
Next on the list to start was sweet potatoes. I baked 2 sweet potatoes in the oven until they were soft and then blended them in the blender with some water until they were the consistency I wanted them to be for the boys. I made all of Liam's baby food when he was a baby and enjoyed every minute of it. I like knowing what they are actually getting and it's so much better for them! I put the food in ice cube trays and freeze them. Each cube is 1oz. I just throw 2 of them in a bowl and warm them up and they are gone in no time!
Next, we have started avocados. Unfortunately they weren't too excited about them. I can't really blame them because I am not a big fan of them either but they are a good fat for them to have and a good first food to start with!
Reid was the least excited about avocados! Haha!
Needless to say I didn't force it on them. I ended up mixing them with sweet potatoes and they went down a lot better that way! Looking back at my blog with Liam I did things totally different. I started with cereal then bananas. Next was avocados and sweet potatoes. I mixed Liam's avocados with bananas. Here is a link to all of Liam's first food attempts!
