My baby loves baby food!


After experiencing Chase's lack of affection for baby food, I wasn't expecting much from Siena. But for some reason, this baby simply loves baby food!! She will eat anything that I put on a spoon for her, even the green stuff. I started out with great enthusiasm making her baby food. I truly enjoyed baking apples, pears, sweet potatoes, and carrots for her. But then suddenly her appetite increased and I could hardly keep up with it! So I've since given up on making all of her food, and now I just do what I can (especially the easy stuff like bananas and avocado) and buy the rest. I remember only using about 1 jar a day on Chase... and Siena eats at least 1 jar for breakfast, 1.5 for lunch and 2 for dinner! I usually just mix her rice cereal in with the baby food instead of making it separately. Plus she's starting to enjoy finger foods as well like strawberries, bananas, and puffs. It's so nice to be able to enjoy mealtimes with her! What a big girl!
