Baby Food!

As you know, I made all of Kiley's baby food. In order to treat my daughter's fairly, I am making Presley's food as well. She will be 6 months next week, so I thought I would get ahead of the game and stock the freezer. With all of the money that I am saving on not buying formula or baby food, I invested in a new toy to make baby food making a little easier. I got this new steamer and I can steam multiple things at once! In this picture, I steamed apples, pears, sweet potatoes and carrots all at once!

When I made all of Kiley's food, I steamed everything separately on the stove. This is so much easier and the cleanup is quicker too! Anything to make this process easier is well deserved. So much work still goes into peeling all fruits and veggies, cutting them, and then pureeing them after they are soft. Here is my end result.

The freezer is stocked with carrots, sweet potatoes, plums, pears and apples. I will probably wait until after Presley's 6 month checkup next week to start the fruits and veggies. In the meantime, she loves her oatmeal. I haven't decided which one I am going to start with. Kiley loved all pureed fruits and veggies. I hope Presley will be the same way!
