Spaghetti-palooza
In our continued quest to scrap jarred baby food, we tried spaghetti with sauce tonight. Below is the "before" picture.
And after. It was a hit. He sucked the sauce off and ate most of his noodles, I even gave him a bit more than his original portion.

Happy 9 months, Little Dude!
9 months. Where does the freaking time go? These are some of my new favourite pics from the last couple of weeks.
Ready to cheer on team Canada.
Eating a mum mum with cream cheese. His eyes in this pic make me melt.
His valentine's day shirt. :)
Trying red pepper for the first time. It was a hit!

Mission purees-be-gone!
We're on a new mission, inspired by the daycare menu we received when registering Aaron this week.
The mission is to wean him off of the jarred purees and start eating "real" people food. Not the food that people eat when they're 90 years old and in a nursing home. ;)
Up until this week, he was just feeding himself cheerios/puffs and mum mums. He has started to refuse to be spoon fed, so I baked some apples earlier in the week to see how he would do, and he did awesome. So, we decided it was time to introduce table food he could feed himself.
Today was day 2. I've given small bits and pieces of finger food before, just not an entire meal until yesterday. Today for lunch he had a piece of whole wheat bread, with fruit puree on it as "jam". Some ham, cheddar cheese and for dessert some banana. He ate IT ALL. And we only had 1 gagging episode.
On day 1, he had some baked apples, banana, english muffin with cream cheese (at dinner) and some cheeze whiz (at lunch) and some cheerios. It was also a success.
I'm making shepherd's pie for dinner, and want to try giving him that for dinner tonight.
I also have been reading up on some of the baby led weaning (BLW) theory/practices, inspired by my friend Jen and her adorable son. :) While we already did the purees which is something people who do baby led weaning generally don't do, we're heading in this general direction by modifying things a bit to suit our needs.
I also did some watching of youtube videos pertaining to it. Interesting stuff!
