After Emmett's 4 month check up we started him on Oatmeal and he found a new love for food!!!!! So much so that he tries to sit up while drinking his bottle sometimes. When we started to feed him solids I was so nervous, just the thought of smashed peas all over the floor, in his clothes, basically everywhere kind of scared me. I was pleasantly surprised that I have a pretty clean eater (so far that is). So after about a week of him eating the oatmeal twice a day it was time to move onto bigger and better things! Last night we adventured into vegetables!!!! PEAS! I started by steaming 2 cups of peas, then I put them in the food processor and added water. Once it was nice and mushy for baby I popped it in an ice cube tray and in the freezer. Emmett's first bite of any food is not the most appetizing look he has on his face but after a few bites he really enjoyed the peas. Especially when it was mixed with the oatmeal. I think we will try sweet potatoes in a week!
