These Lips are Sealed

Last week I decided I was tired of spending money on store bought baby food and that I was going to make my own. I really got into it and I made carrots, squash, zucchini, green beans, apples and chicken. Here is a picture of some of food containers I have in my freezer. I was really feeling good about saving money and making Gianna such healthy baby food. Look below and you will see how Gianna felt about my baby food.





I tried to take my carrots and mix them with her favorite Gerber pears but even that would not disguise the taste! Yes, folks she hates my baby food. I thought maybe it was the texture but after pureeing it to oblivion she still sealed her lips! I later heard from another friend she had the same experience. I was so frustrated that I took some the baby food and cooked it into my enchiladas I was making for dinner so at least they went to good use. As you can see from the picture I made quite a few failed attempts to the get the food into her mouth.

Mr. F has gone back to day shift so my blogging hours are very limited. Gianna is doing a lot of rocking on all fours and is very frustrated that she cannot crawl. She is still all gums and will be 9 months on the 16th of June. She is saying Da da da da quite often and screams with excitment. She is still not much of a laugher but she loves to smile and wave her arms up and down. We are having a blast with her.
