at least I don’t have to wash it out of hair
Nora had oatmeal with blueberries for lunch today and heavens is blueberry hard to wash off a wiggling baby!
So what does Nora eat? Yesterday she had a lovely dish I like to call `peanoa’ (mushed steamed peas in very lightly spiced quinoa). So far she’s had (in addition to breastmilk, of course):
fruits
- avocado
- applesauce
- banana (her favorite)
- blueberries
veggies
- peas
- sweet potato (second favorite)
grains (we mill these)
- brown rice
- barley
- oatmeal
- quinoa
So not a particularly varied selection so far, but we’ve been taking it slow and being probably a lot more cautious about introducing foods than is necessary. Wholesome Baby Foods is a nice web site and has given us some useful information, but I think it imparts more worry than is sensible — rather like “what to expect”. We’re going to open up the food gates a little bit this week. On deck for the next week or so:
- green beans (tonight)
- snap peas
- broccoli
- rutabaga?
- pears
- peaches
- lentils
- flax seed
