Peas, Please!

When we discovered that I was pregnant, we knew that we wanted to do most of Brooklyn's things ourselves; we wanted to buy her car seat, we wanted to buy her Holiday outfits, we wanted to breastfeed (well, I did anyways), and eventually, we wanted to make our own baby food. Luckily for us, Anthony's dad and stepmom bought us the Baby Bullet for Christmas!
Making Brooklyn's food has been interesting to say the least. I am not the most electronic savvy...in fact, I tend to break anything that is electronic simply by looking at it. The Baby Bullet was no exception. The first pureed food I made her was sweet potatoes. She loved it. My kitchen after I was done making it however, did not. Apparently, when you're making runny food with the BB, it can come out of the lip thing (spout?).. all over your working space. The kitchen counters, walls, paper towels and knife block were all covered in a whitish, orange sticky goo. That was the least of my problems, however.


My little miss loves to feed herself. Since she was only 5 months old when she started eating solids, she didn't quite have the whole fine motor skills necessary to complete the task without getting most of it on her face:

Or her bib for that matter....

So far, she has tried sweet potatoes, apples, bananas, avocados, rice cereal and pears. Last night, we introduced peas. That one has been the most fun out of all the foods we tried. 




   




GIVE ME MORE PEAS!







As you can see, peas were a messy experience. Fun, but messy. <3
