Hinckley is really starting to enjoy his food. We started with cereal which was a bomb. And really, what baby enjoys eating plain rice cereal? Then we went to bananas...and friends, they were a hit. After our trip to the orchard Mommy decided to make apples and pears. So today I slaved away in the kitchen (just prepping for the real work when I can applesauce, apple pie filling and apple butter) steaming apples and pears, pureeing them, and putting them into snack size baggies. After a quick freeze of 15 minutes, the small bags are put into larger freezer bags and then bag to the freezer to be used as needed. I usually just make the food as I need it, but this was Daddy's request for times when I am busy in the kitchen or out running Mommy time errands. (Yes ladies, I am talking about spa time and shopping!)
Maybe implementing more food into his day will help him sleep better...or it could be than he is still in our room. But honestly, I am not in a big rush. I am enjoying having him next to me because before I know it (and I know I have said this before) he will be too grown up for that. *sigh* Just like today, normally I am off to the gym right after everyone leaves for school, but Hinckley has a little cold and has been fussy. He wants held. So that is what I have done all morning. I held him, rocked him and just cuddled with him. And it was worth it.
Anybody know why I can't get my pictures side by side? It shows them side by side in the editing post section but not when it is posted. Let me know if you do!
That applesauce is beautiful! I'm all about soaking the little ones in too. They grow up way to fast!
