Ok, so I chickened out on the squash and green beans. THEY ARE AWFUL. I can't stand the smell of pureed squash. haha
But, we DID try meat. And she loves it!
Only one store in town carries this brand *sigh* so we are pretty limited. The word from other moms in the aisle is the gerber stuff is pretty icky. This stuff is a combination of chicken, sweet potato and brown rice.. Pureed it tastes like....sweet potato grit. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure this is primo for baby food meat (let's be honest, chicken by itself tastes awful). Most importantly, Princess Crybaby thinks it's fantastic so I love it and we stick to this brand exclusively for our meat consumption..
Otherwise, eating is going well. She's not as roly-poly as she was because she is starting to scoot around. Not quite to crawling but she's getting really close.
Speaking of, I'd better jump off and check on her. Tata!

Cereal diaries - you tell me!
Ok blog lurker peeps: I need you to weigh in on the baby food meats.
I think we've done a great job with fruit and veggie picks but I can't remember what I did for meat. Not to mention baby food tastes better than it did when Munchkin was a baby.
Help!

Cereal Diaries - no, we're not counting anymore
We've now introduced:
Rice Cereal
Fruit:
Bananas
Peaches
Pears
Apples
Vegetables:
Sweet Potatoes
Carrots
Peas
Table food - we've tried a saltine cracker (or two) and little bites of plain mashed potatoes. She wasn't crazy about the potatoes at roadhouse but she liked my mashed potatoes just fine (probably because mine are finer and have butter).
She can sip (with great mess) formula out of a cup but she doesn't really understand what (or why) she's doing it.
She's truly a Corley - there isn't a food (so far) she hasn't liked. Now, we haven't tried green beans, squash or any of the other "hard core" vegetables. Or meat. I've been trying to stage into those, as her palette matures. I'll probably pick up a squash and a meat this week to try over Spring Break. (next week)
Wish us luck.

Bunny
The choice has been made. Princess Crybaby has a Beloved. Before she was born, we found a bear made of the same nubby fabric as Munchkin's Bears. She likes him but her Beloved is Bunny.
Bunny is a girl, I guess. She used to have a pink bow but I cut it off because it didn't look safe. It goes everywhere we go; except for school.
I look forward to having conversations with and giving night-night kisses to Bunny.
Ah, sweet joys.
