Weekend Update

Oct 08, 2007 09:24

Lenae has officially cut her first tooth - bottom left - with the bottom right tooth coming in right behind. I noticed Friday when my FIL was over to pick up the boys for the weekend. Lenae wouldn't let him hold her (screamed and screamed) so I had to sit her in my lap facing him so he could play with her a bit. She decided to nibble on my thumb ( Read more... )

Yeah, sometimes when fruit is that expensive, it's just easier to buy the jarred stuff. Cheaper with other stuff, though, especially vegetables.

And why did you FIL think she has to be weaned after cutting teeth?

Apparently I should fear biting...

And yeah, veggies would be cheaper - especially stuff like potatoes... 5lbs for less than $3 here, and those keep well and don't have wierd discolorations from being pureed.

Wow Lenae has a good list of food she enjoys. Neisha only eats jar food at the moment. She gags on homemade stuff. In the last week i've started sneaking in mashed potato and broccoli into her food. It's working well so far. Hopefully in a few weeks i'll have her 100% on homemade. ;)

Yeah, she's pretty open on her babyfood she likes. Bananas, applesauce, squash, and sweet potatoes are also among her edibles. So far I've only made homemade bananas, pears, and as of last night, carrots. I just buy applesauce by the big jar so everyone can eat it.

Hopefully she won't be a picky eater. Neither of the boys were, although my oldest to this day tries to wiggle out of eating carrots. ;-)
