Carrots: Yes! Peas: No!

Having some fun during tummy time. Wesley and Jonah are now rolling over.


These are the after pictures from lunch today. Jonah and Wesley are good at getting dirty.


So we are on our third day of trying new vegetables with the boys. It has been interesting to see who gets the messiest, me or the boys. Jonah definitely did not like peas, they went in and came straight back out. I wonder how much he is eating half the time because he sticks his tongue out after almost every bite.

We tried carrots this afternoon at lunch and they both seemed to like them. They did not make the same gagging noises or spit them out as quickly. I know that we are now feeding the boys solids as I seem to find little pieces of food in different areas. I was just folding laundry and found a piece of carrot in the sheets, I have no idea how that got there. I seem to get just as messy as I find pieces of food on me and my hands all the time. I decided to dress the boys in shorts sleeves if it is kind of warm because it is much easier to clean them up as they don't have food crusted to their sleeves.

I have decided to make my own baby food as I am cheap and I figure I can do it just fine. My MIL gave me a baby food make called a Beaba from Williams Sonoma. It is pretty handy as it will steam the food and then you just blend it up to the consistency you want. I like it though it does not cook grains so I am still working on perfecting rice cereal and oatmeal. The boys like both, though more of it seems to end up on their faces than in their mouths.
