I made baby food! Thanks to the inspiration of my sister, the cost of baby food, and a baby with a bottomless stomach. I boiled carrots for about 45 minutes, so they were super soft. Then I blended them in the blender forever with some water & formula and it came out so creamy. I was so excited I almost ate it myself. (keyword: almost)
I poured it into an ice cube tray to freeze, and when it's solid I'll put it into ziplock bags, pull them out and warm them up as needed. And for about 20 times less than regular baby food. oh yeah.
I think Calvin liked it too.

oh my gosh he is so cute in those pictures! he has the cutest smile! once again becca, i think that i'm going to have to copy you. i've been told by a few people to make my own baby food but it sounded like a pain, but you made it sound so easy. here goes nothin'.
Wow Becca, that is a great idea... I will have to do that since Jordan loves carrots. :)
Isn't that the best? I love making Kennedy food. I have a ton of recipes if you ever want to look and get some ideas. :o) And those smiles are darling.
Way to go! Making baby food is soooo easy, and definitely a great way to save moola. If you don't have it, get the book SUPER BABY FOOD by Ruth Yaron. It tells you how to prepare anything you can think of.
Is the plastic behind Calvin's chair a 'splash zone'? Is he a 'food flinger'?
It doubles as "splash zone" and "head protection". Our kitchen chairs have hard metal back that Calvin would bang his head on sometimes, so Brandon cushioned it with a towel & pillow case. ta-da
I think this is a brilliant idea! Maybe this makes sense to most people, but I think it's such a good idea!
Cute baby!!!
What a cute little face. I'm impressed you got it on camera. Usually they are so fast its hard to catch those faces.
I agree with both Brandon (not me) and Melissa above...Calvin is one "cute baby" and the pillow case and towel was "a brilliant idea!"
