Why carrots? Well, they say its a good vegetable to start since its sweet, and its loaded with vitamins, especially for good vision. As blind as his momma is I want to do everything I can to help him have better eyes! And lastly, we had them!
So I opened up my Christmas present - a baby puree "cookbook" and selected the carrot puree recipe. I mixed it with some of his rice cereal and we tried it. It tasted just like oatmeal with a hint of carrot.
So Nathan's no Bugs Bunny, he didn't wolf down the carrots like he did the rice cereal the first time. I think he did really well though and tried his best to eat them. :-) I do have to mention though that we have to tie him down less when we feed him. I just sit him in his super seat on the table and he does really well!
Tonight I am going to try just the carrot puree by itself and then feed him rice cereal afterwards, maybe he didn't like the combination?
Oh, he's too clean! I wanted to see him covered in the stuff. You guys are too good at keeping him neat. :)
ReplyDeleteHe is the clean one! Every bite he was trying to get that stuff off his face or tongue! We did have carrot all over his legs. By the way, carrot by itself did not go over well either, and I gave him the rice cereal on the side to keep him eating in between carrot bites!
