First Vegetables

We've been trying vegetables at our house. It's been super fun to make Aidan's food and puree it. I'm buying organic jarred carrots because of the danger of nitrates, but everything else has been homemade. Here's the track record so far:

11/25/08: Carrots. Took a bite, stopped cold, then belly laughed and lunged forward with his mouth open. He LOVES his carrots! We do not love that the contents of his diapers now look like said carrots. The contents do not smell the same as said carrots!


11/29/08: Green beans. Refuses to eat them. He is definitely related to me. Anyway, he spits them out. If I mix the green beans with cereal, he will swallow the cereal and spit out the green beans. We'll keep trying!


12/1/08: Peas. He made the same disgusted face as the green beans but ate everything I gave him. We have high hopes for peas!

Soon we're going to try sweet potatoes and avocados. We'll keep you posted!
