We started with sweet potatoes. Gran was nice enough to buy us a "Baby Bullet" blender system. The same people who make "The Bullet" blender you see on TV make a cutesie version for babies. We started with boiling down our sweet potatoes to be REALLY mushy...
then spooned them into the big blender bowl...
then just 1...2...3...and....
sweet potato milkshake!!!!
Then we spooned the mush into the adorable little serving size containers and either stored them in the fridge or freezer.
Look how sweet! I love the idea of my food smiling at me from the refrigerator.
We got him all bibbed up and ready to go.
First bite! Success...loves it!
We sort of have to keep our hands over his arms and hands so he won't sabotage the spoon as it heads toward his mouth.
But I think he enjoys it! Huh?!
We went "up the hill" to visit Jim and Emily and their new baby boy Noel. We took some food with us and made mashed avacados while we were there. Aunt Emily always has an avacado on hand:). Cousin Ben wanted to "help" but proved to be more of a delightful distraction than anything. Haha!
Sam was mesmerized by him....
He kept trying to touch Ben with his sweet potato-y hands.
We've since added avocado and squash. Next up---peas, zucchini, and bananas!
We are loving this next step. We actually love all of the steps!
