Squash, Carrots, Peas, Apples, Bananas, Peaches and Cereal


Since the first part of June, we have slowly been introducing baby food to Marci. Depending on her hunger level she can be a really good eater at times. She has gotten used to the word "open" which means open your mouth because the spoon is coming in! We started with squash then moved onto apples, sweet potatoes, sweet peas, peaches, and now bananas. If she had her way she'd only eat bananas for every meal, and I don't blame her. They are very sweet. She absolutely detests peas; if you're not careful she'll spit them right back at you! She'll also do this if you're trying to feed her and she's no longer hungry. Meal time is a fun but interesting adventure. At 25 weeks her daily meals consist of oatmeal cereal and a fruit in the morning, fruit and veggie for lunch, and fruit and veggie for dinner. I am still pumpin' away for her and she consumes most all of a day's supply, which is roughly 25ounces or so. To us she seems to be good eater, but don't let this fool you. She is very petite and still wearing some 3 month onesies.

This picture was taken by Aunt Arianne in the cabin at Grand Lake. No, it has not been digitally altered; her eyes are really that blue.
