I steamed a bunch of kale and some green beans today. I put them into the blender with some water, and made green purees for Ian. They went into ice cube trays and then into ziploc bags in the freezer. It'll add to our squash and applesauce repertoire now that Ian is officially "diggin" food.
Last night at Uncle Jay's, he ate probably at least 1/2 oz of chicken, 1/4 cup of yogurt, 1/4 cup of a combination of applesauce and squash, cheerios, and some potato salad. I think we're getting a preview of how Ian will eat as a teenager. Wow! Tonight, he had green beans (Daddy farted, that was the joke. They were laughing for ages before that video was taken. Oh, dear), squash, applesauce, turkey meatloaf, mashed potatoes, animal crackers (oh, how Ian loves animal crackers!) and some craisins. I think he was fussy this afternoon because he'd slept through lunch. He eats so differently each day, and some days he won't eat much at all, so it's hard to know that he's hungry. But hopefully we'll get the "eat" sign down, and that'd help!
